Loved it - simple but perfect
Just came back from India and the swiss hotel was a highlight. It isn't too expensive (1500 rupees for a double per night) and is a perfect place for friends, couples or backpackers wanting a bit more comfort. Ideal location, tucked in the hills away from the town but close enough to walk. Its a pretty hotel built by westerners who used to live in nanital.
Service made the hotel fantastic, the rooms aren't fancy, but each night a hot water bottle is placed in your beds and the pot belly fire is lit in your room. Its very warm and comfortable. Hot water is on only from 7 - 10am, and in the evening too, but that wasn't a problem as thats the only time you need it.
Stay on the top floor and in the morning have a simple breakfast overlooking the mountains...I'd recommend this hotel to everyone.
