Peace and quiet. Fantastic views. Comfort of room. Ideal location for those looking to relax and do nothing other than indulge. Food very good. Would not suit active people looking for trekking etc. One or two shops and a bakery about 10/15 minutes walk up hill.

Location is quite remote and therefore there are no passing taxis. Trip to Shimla takes 45/60 minutes. Some menu items were not available as we were the only guests and, understandably, it was not cost effective for the hotel to provide everything.

I liked everything. The staff were excellent. We arrived early in the morning, around 7:30 AM. We had breakfast at the restaurant. We took a nap in the lobby on the 5th floor and the manager personally went to find us to arrange early check-in for us. All the facilities were good. We needed to visit a doctor, the manager also helped with that. Overall excellent experience.

The hotel is approximately 14-15 kms away from the mall road. Also, the hotel isn't easy to locate.

It’s located away from the crowd of Shimla in Mashobra. A well maintained, close to nature property overlooking the valley. The staff is very courteous and hospitable, especially Mr Bhupesh is a thorough Gentleman. Stay here was a treat.

Only a group that was also there during our stay. Bunch if uncultured people taking away from the quite and beauty of the place.

All the staff members, including Mr Govind at the reception, restaurant and housekeeping members, are welcoming, polite and always ready to help. The hotel is true to its name, The Retreat... away from the hustle bustle of crowd and peaceful. We would definitely recommend this hotel

All the staff were extremely helpful and the retreat was beautifully decorated and comfortable. The food was delicious and freshly prepared. we would like to stay here again if in the area.

The roads and distance to Shimla. However staying at Mashobra is about experiencing nature.

Breakfast was routine everyday, with very little options. However, the cooking was good Staff was very professional and courteous. Lounge was very comfortable for a family sit together with enough capacity.

There were very little sit out options. Meals menu options were very limited, and many items listed in the Menu were not available.

This hotel is a perfect hidden gem for your family vacation. Away from the hussle bustle of city life, this place gives u a warm and cosy space to rejuvenate. Situated about 6 kms away from Shimla, Clark offers every facility that you might be looking forward to in a luxury hotel from breathtaking valley views to rooms loaded with all essential amenities. What makes this place a must try is its amazing sunroom which is connected with an open sky deck. One can easily spend a day listening to music, reading books, or just unwinding under the sun. Their services are super accommodating be it housekeeping or restaurant. Their menu is aptly spiced to suit the requirements of kids and elderly. I Like to extend a special thanks to Mr.Bhupesh under whom the humble and warm hearted staff gives prompt and quality service at all times and made our stay one of the most memorable trips in the hills ever. We enjoyed our trip thoughly and will look for reasons to visit Mashobra again and again.

The final approach to the hotel is not lit and very narrow. It will be dofficult to a first time drover on hills to manage everyday uphill and downhill drove from the maintoad to the hotel.

This was our first visit to Shimla and we choose The Retreat, Mashobra for stay. We reached this place after a long drive. The road stretch of 200-300 Mts is a little narrow. But as we reached we liked everything about this place. The interiors are very tasteful. The rooms are very spacious and clean. The place had the feeling of luxury and comfort. The staff took care of all our needs. The food including the breakfast is very nice. The view is just amazing from the room looking through the valley and you can enjoy the sun. Most beautiful was the place on 5th floor. The lounge. This has very well done interiors. We loved every bit of our stay at this place.

Very peaceful place to relax with love of nature and especially the hotel manager Mr. Bhupesh Varma was very helpful to give us suggestion how to plan your site seeing and attractions. There is also a couple of playing activity in this hotel with fantastic view to the valley from the roof top floor.

The room size and the view from the room was nice and the bathroom was clean.

The location of the hotel is quite far from the main Shimla mall road. It took roughly 45 mins each side while commuting. So if you need to visit Shimla mall road during your stay, please think again before booking. I asked the hotel authorities to do some basic decorations which they agreed to provide as a complimentary service but at the end they charged us 1000 bucks for that. Mostly hotels provide such decorations as a gesture for their guests. Food in the buffet was not upto the mark which many guests have complained. Another challenge we faced was we can only order food till 10 pm so please be extra careful if you are traveling late. Also there were no non smoking category rooms which might be cumbersome for some.
