Jojo and Mojo, the adorable resident pets, add warmth to your stay. While the food menu might need a little more variety, overall, it’s a delightful retreat for nature lovers and peace seekers.

    Sir just a reminder that The Royal Swiss is a forest retreat in the middle of a bird sanctuary, sometimes due to bad weather power cuts can happen which are difficult to fix at night , however we still have Generator till 12p.m as well as inverter backup through out the night , not really sure why you couldn't figure that out in your room sir, also the staff is available at night only till reasonable hours and not through out , however we loved hosting you at RSC!

    Amazing stay

    srishti t.loyalty-iconcouple

    Must pay a visit once if you are looking for a peaceful environment with amazing scenic view, a comfortable stay with a lot of common space, the mesmerising infrastructure with e co friendly amenities, delicious meals( mushroom curry is a must try), beautiful sunset after a good trek, star gazing. On top of all this, if you are /are not a pet lover, jojo & mojo are the cutest pets you will meet.

    Terrible Stay

    It was a horrible experience staying at royal swiss cottage. Poorest service and location without any view of nature. You will find only barren mountains and nothing else. Booked this cottage with very high expectations but it was terrible

    Travelling and life are a matter of perspectives. Every Individual perceives them differently, it's happened for the first time that anyone has ever been so critical in putting us down in this manner, however we loved hosting you guys at the property and making exceptions to our services for you guys specially. Anyways we would try to be better in case you visit us again. All the best and thank you🙂

    Yes indeed if you are disrespectful towards the property owners and the sanctity of the property and our house rules , we have zero tolerance towards anything that doesn't align with our concepts and values. If you can not respect the hosts then indeed you will not get any respect in return. we recommend choosing a property which lets you blast crazy loud music in your cars at 6 a.m. in the morning and making an extra person stay in the cottage without any prior intimation about the same and later arguing about the same thing, first thing next morning.

    It is nestled among the hills far away from population. Extremely recommended if someone is looking for peace, tranquility and wants to avoid usual commercial stays. Food was homely and mostly north indian style but menu options need to be extended.

    Sir, we really appreciate your feedback over your stay at our property, thank you. However the booking for two g lamps was made by yourself sir and we definitely can not take responsibility for it, we would recommend you to properly check your accommodation choices pure booking and certainly the overpriced tag comes with the constraints of running a jungle property.

    Peaceful stay at Chail

    sanjeev b.loyalty-iconfamily

    If you're looking for a quietness and seclusion this is your abode. Reaching there is a bit scary for first time visitors as the road leading to the hotel in not pick and needs proper maintenance. Hotel signboards are also handwritten and poorly visible. However, once you reach there you will find the owners (who also live in the same property) soft spoken and co-operative. This is a home stay and not a hotel as clarified by the owner. One thing which needs improvement is the food. I did not find the food tasty and found it overpriced too. Food rates are comparable to any 4 star hotel. Side orders like beverages and butter also are on the higher side. Pricing needs a re-look for sure. Other wise the stay was good and felt homely.

    Thank you for your visit Mr Balaji. There are lots of things to do Around such as adventure games/obstacles, mountain biking, trekking, jungle walks, meditation, bird watching etc. The reason would have been that you checked in at midnight and left next day after breakfast. That said you are most welcome for a longer stay anytime and enjoy the nature to its full potential Regards Royal Swiss Cottage

    Home is where the heart is

    indraraj m.loyalty-iconfamily

    If you are looking for a retreat, a rejuvenating experience to dust off all the fatigue and monotony of your city life, visit this sweet home away from home at Chail, Himachal Pradesh. We visited Royal Swiss Cottage last week and enjoyed a blissful stay there. A warm and tastefully decorated interior clubbed with a natural setting outside is something that is special about this homestay. The pine grove within your reach, the hilly trails awaiting your footsteps and the orchards of apple, pear, walnut, pomegranate Around you are sure to make you feel completely within nature. The host, the Sen family, is really courteous. Kanishk and Aditya are always there to ease out and extend any help you need. The brothers are very friendly and sober. We being dog lovers, had a real bonus in store, a super cute Golden retriever moo who won our hearts at first sight itself and remained our major attraction during the whole stay. He is the Sen family's youngest member. We enjoyed tasty homely meals prepared by the local cooks who not only are good at their work but also are simple people with great hearts. With the experience shared, we really look forward to visiting this cute Cottage once again. We wish the host a very best of luck.

    Awesome experience

    bhavin k.family

    This was our first experience with a Cottage booking. The small off-roading experience to reach the site is superb. This is best place if you want to escape from noisy City traffic and be close to nature for couple of days. Hospitality and food felt like home being away from home. Rather this is better place to spend time than booking a stay at over crowded Shimla. Thank you to Cottage owner family members, Aditya and Kanishk. My 2 yr old daughter was in love with Mozo pet dog. Will surely visit again and will strongly recommend others. Nice wood infrastructure.
