The Oberoi Cecil, Shimla

During the times of the British Raj, this was an exclusive hotel, known for its fabulous ballroom dances and fashionable clientele. 130 years later, this elegant, restored grand heritage hotel retains much of its colonial charm.

Located at the quieter end of the bustling Mall Road, near the Viceroy Lodge, The Oberoi Cecil is announced by a crisp, white facade and smart, green terrace railings. Inside, a lobby punctuated with marble fireplaces leads guests to a comfortable lounge, which is lit from above by a skylight that spans the length and breadth of the hotel’s signature atrium.Our expansive Luxury Suites feature an elegant living room, a bedroom with a unique two-poster bed, a walk-in wardrobe and a private balcony with panoramic views across the Shimla valley. The classic red granite and evergreen marble bathroom is fitted with a gleaming bathtub, a separate shower, double sinks and a vanity counter.
