Hilton Shillim Estate Retreat and Spa

Everything, Location, was perfect for mind detox, Staff was more than amazing, very friendly and serviable, Many activities to do, It is isolated, so you cant go out but you will not feel bored, but not for solo traveller, I reached on sunset amd I felt scared, Big villa and isolated, Its secured but if you are alone dont go, Thank you for the security man who came and told me ill be the whole night near your door so you can sleep and dont be scared, Everything was dreamy

A bit expensive around 30000 ir including food, Very expensive

The property is well maintained, amidst nature, food is delicious. The King Forest villas offer excellent privacy. Their bathrooms are huge and so well designed that they give a very earthy experience. The staff was courteous. I did Tibetan bowl meditation which was a very calming experience for me.

Well, I’m someone who does not enjoy so much seclusion offered by property. Someone who loves privacy, will enjoy the property. I was scared of intruder, wild life, and snakes entering the room. You have to keep the doors closed all the time as mentioned in the stay. It will be worthwhile for the property to add more activities to do in the resort.

The location is great. The property has maintained the sanctity of the forest. It’s just you and nature. The villas are great with all the facilities mentioned. If you want to get away feom the city hustle, 1 or 2 nights here is recommended.

Walking around the property is a bit difficult. The various restaurants are at quite a distance from the villas. The road is uphill, so not that comfortable. Only way to move about is through their Nano cars. It’s highly recommended that they upgrade them soon. Also, please carry enough snacks with you as the room service takes 1hr+ to get anything as the restaurants are far off and can service only using the Nano’s.

The peace and tranquility, the location, the friendliness of the staff, the spa treatment .

We could not use the jacuzzi when we wanted to and the pool was closed at 7pm when we wanted to go for a swim. It was a dry weekend due to voting in the village so we could not have a glass of wine with our meal. As international travellers staying in a resort of that calibre that should not be the case. The prices for treatments are very high even when comparing to prices in Europe

Staff from front desk to security was excellent .A special shout out to Mr Ajinkya at the yoga centre .very knowledgable and I had an excellent soothing Tibetan sound meditation class with him. Restaurant staff were very warm and welcoming .Food was lovely too !

The nano cars used for travel within the property definitely need some upgrade . The conditioner bottles need to be looked at as they are very difficult to use.

the beauty and location of the place is extreme ! a stay for 3-4 nights will help you rejuvenate from the busy busy schedule and stress . The view from any place be it pool , is worth it . don’t forget to visit the spa !!!

hmm… it’s a tough one , only 2 points : - they don’t serve sugar at all , people who don’t have a taste of jaggery will not like the beverages . - Their system of Magic / nano cars is superb , but in peak times pull in more so that there is less wait time . - signal issues are there but WiFi is the answer !

The meals were great. They were all healthy meals that were prepared in house with ingredients they've mostly grown on their property. There was a vast selection in the dinner package we took and we had a nice variety of food on both days. We didn't use the car service to get around the property most of the time and opted to walk and enjoy the property. We visited the pool side, their organic farm, spa and wellness centre as well as their main restaurant. We pretty much opted to stay and enjoy our room there rest of the time.

Room service took a while to deliver which was understandable given the size of the property but the quantity was small so we felt that the price we paid for room service meals were not worth it.

Exceptional location, excellent staff and comfortable accommodation. Nothing to complain about except that it's a little expensive, especially the food.

The Nanos have become a bit rickety. The property roads especially the upper parts could be lit better at night so as to encourage people to walk to dinner! The food is definitely expensive with a limited menu.

Have been wanting to write this bit for this entire week before the memories fade away. The experience right from check-in to check-out has been completely satisfying and a good one! The fact that they could do a RAT on my 9-year-old at the check-in and let us in was a pleasant surprise ! The staff was very friendly and courteous as expected in a property that has the Hilton tag to it, some members of the team who deserve a special mention were: Damini at the front desk who helped us check-in and check-out with ease and comfort, the first person a guest sees when one comes to a property is the team at the front desk - and Damini made us feel very special and welcome. Arvind Nair, Abhishek, Rohini, Chinmay, Akash, Sanket in the F&B space were amazing - they really made us feel comfortable and played an important part in making our vacation a good one! A very special mention to Prince - who made our anniversary very special as well. The Gentleman who took us for the walk around the lake view hill was a very nice person as well, he did ensure the group stayed together and also enjoyed their early morning stroll in the hills. The drivers who kept doing the trips across the property in their Nanos - incredible patience and skill! Not to forget - there is a female dog in the premises, who should be given a Hilton badge to wear as well - she did lead the way for my daughter, wife, and me when we were riding on the cycles across the property and showed us a lot of places which we would have missed otherwise - we found her to be a great companion in our strolls across the vast property as well. There is enough to do if you love to walk around and explore !

I would have given a 10 rating, you lose a point since the villa I stayed in.- the open shower is seen from the entrance outside - which is a big privacy issue, not something that makes me comfortable out in open! Also - many hotels across have started the swimming pools, maybe it's worth considering in this property as well.

Above expectation! Loved the experience of waking up in the heart of nature! A very friendly staff specially the one who was doing the farm tour, and Lokom! They tried to accommodate my request for a special food request, activities, and others! Thank you Devarshree and Nafis for making our stay extraordinary!

Nothing!
