We booked premium room
1. The view- You absolutely cannot beat the views.
2. Spacious room. Rocking chair was a great touch ( Wish there were 2 of them)
3. Courteous staff.
4. Rooftop cafeteria, again loved the views from the rooftop
5. Also liked the food, but this is one thing that can be improved a bit. While the cafeteria staff is also very courteous.
a) The buffet menu could have more variety
b) Full day room service, as in, right from 7 am to 10 pm instead of having breaks in between would be a great addition. But I guess that's the norm in Manali.
Other than this, I guess everything was great. Also note, the location is on the top of a mountain , while you can get a cab but better have your own vehicle. But if you need the views you've got to get to the top.
