Ample Parking Space

One of the best aspects of this hotel is the ample and safe parking space available. Being on the highway made it so easy to access, without the stress of finding a place for our vehicle. It made our stay comfortable right from the start.

My stay at De Exotica Crest was overall a mixed experience. The location was quite appealing, nestled in the scenic Shimla hills, though I found the room rates weren't fully justified by the quality. On the upside, the room service was prompt and the dining options, especially the burgers, were satisfying. Nonetheless, I did notice that the service could improve, particularly concerning bathroom cleanliness.
