Loved the hospitality, interior, garden. The host even made a sweet gesture of hanging balloons and all for us as it was our anniversary. They made it more special. The view from the beautiful lawn was so beautiful. Having breakfast in the lawn with the panoramic view of shimla was amazing. I would recommend everyone to try this property once. You will love the hosts.

My stay was wonderful. I was very well received, Mamta makes simply wonderful food and always took great care to make sure I was well, in addition to her, the whole family helped me with everything I needed during my stay. The rooms are clean, have hot water and the view is simply wonderful! It's perfect for have a chai and watching the sunset. The guesthouse is located in a quiet place, far from the busy center of Shimla, and to get to this region it is possible to use public transport or the family can order a taxi, which is always very easy. I loved my stay, I even learned how to make Indian food, I definitely recommend it!

Vatsalyam Home Stay

Shimla

A good location for a stress-free getaway in Shimla, Vatsalyam Home Stay is a homestay surrounded by views of the city.

We stayed at Vatsalyam for 3 nights. Lots of positives to write about. 1. Mr. Ashish is a wonderful host who took care of all our needs including arranging CABs for pick up from Chandigarh airport, local sightseeing, dropping at railway station and even helped planning the sightseeing itinerary. Since we were new to Shimla, it helped us a lot to stay tension free on planning the sightseeing and saved us a lot time. 2. Sumptuous Breakfast with a healthy and tasty spread. They ensured that there was always a paratha variety, porridge, cereal, cut fruits and bread / toast with butter and jam. Dinner was even better and at a nominal cost. Each dinner had soft and hot rotis, one paneer gravy, one dal, one sabji, steamed basmati rice, curd and pickle. The dinner was also concluded with a yummy dessert. The local delicacy Mahani served on our last evening dinner was top notch. We had requested for gobi sabji for all 3 days for our kid and they readily accepted our request. 3. Hot Tea and coffee were served 3 times a day. 4. Laundry was available at a nominal price. 5. There was a mini library to entertain guests with a voracious reading habit. 6. Mr Ashish and his family met and greeted us everyday without fail and enquired about the stay and facilities provided. 7. They always ensured the dining area was neatly set and fully prepared before any meal and on time requested. 8. And finally, the one thing that we booked this homestay for, didn't disappoint us - The balcony view of the valley. It was a sight to behold.
