Chapslee

This independent, family-run hotel in Shimla, at the heart of India's mountainous north, offers boutique, heritage accommodation with a homely welcome. The scant handful of suites are full of character and warmth.

The family owners make guests feel like family friends, and the ambiance is truly relaxing. Take heritage walks around the local area, and return to the hotel for multi-dish feasts of delicious, home-cooked regional cuisine.
