Accessibility & That Awkward Elevator Ride (Or Lack Thereof)
First things first: Accessibility. Look, the hotel says it has facilities for disabled guests, and they do have an elevator. But… let's just say it’s more "charming" than fully functional. My friend with mobility issues, bless her soul, had to navigate a few flights of stairs on one occasion. It’s not the slick, smooth ride you’d expect. They need to seriously up their game in this area. Seriously.
(Accessibility: Mixed. While they claim to have it, the reality needs improvement.)
The Food & Drink Circus - A Symphony of Buffets and Questionable Cocktails
Alright, let's talk about the grub. The hotel has a whole heap of dining options. Restaurants are on the menu, naturally! I’ll just cut to the chase: the buffet in the restaurant was my nemesis and sometimes, my best friend. It had everything - from the ubiquitous Asian breakfast (think watery noodles, and a questionable fried egg) to the slightly less-ubiquitous Western breakfast (toast and a sad little sausage). Asian cuisine was available, of course. The international cuisine was a mixed bag. The buffet was, in general, hit-or-miss. One day, the mushroom soup was a revelation; the next, it tasted like dishwater.
The poolside bar? Ooh, that's where the real drama happened. Happy hour, which was, you know, happy-ish, presented me with a margarita that could strip paint. The bottle of water was plentiful, thankfully. And the service? Well, let’s just say they were enthusiastic. And sometimes, a little… confused. I ordered a salad in the restaurant, and it came, after a very long wait, with a single, lonely crouton sitting on top. It was a metaphor for my life, I swear.
The coffee shop was okay, offering a much-needed caffeine fix. The snack bar was my go-to for emergency chocolate fixes. And I loved the little baskets of essential condiments they put on the table for you.
(Dining, drinking, and snacking: Wide variety, but quality is inconsistent. Hit or miss with the food. Poolside bar is an experience.)
Relaxation & The Elusive Spa
Now, the ways to relax. This is where the Twin Towers tries to up its game. Big promises! They have a spa! A sauna! A steamroom! A fitness center! Sounds heavenly, right?
Okay, let’s be real. The spa itself was… quaint. The massage I received was… well, let's say the masseuse seemed to be more passionate about gossiping with her colleagues than actually kneading my knots. The body scrub and body wrap were, again, a mixed bag. The pool with a view was beautiful, although maybe a bit more "view" than "pool." The Gym/fitness was a joke.
The foot bath was the best part, I am not kidding. The only thing that kept me sane after that so-called "massage"!
(Ways to relax: Spa and fitness facilities are present but need improvement. Foot bath is a highlight.)
Cleanliness & Safety - The Things That Really Matter
Okay, this is where the Twin Towers surprisingly shines. Cleanliness and safety are clearly a priority. They have daily disinfection in common areas, and you could tell. Everything felt fresh. They made a genuine effort. They have hand sanitizer everywhere, and staff trained in safety protocol. I loved the individually-wrapped food options and safe dining setup. Also, the CCTV in common areas, Fire extinguisher, smoke alarms, and security [24-hour]. Seriously, I felt safe. Bravo, Twin Towers!
I did notice the room sanitization opt-out available. Which is a nice touch too.
(Cleanliness and safety: Excellent. Clear focus on guest well-being.)
Rooms & Amenities - The Good, The Bad, and the Very Dated
Okay, let's talk about the rooms. The air conditioning was a lifesaver (it can get surprisingly warm in Kufri). I had a non-smoking room. The internet access – Wi-Fi [free] was a godsend, and it actually worked! (Unlike the TV, which was a relic from the stone age.) The blackout curtains were great for sleeping in, the extra-long bed was a comfy bonus. The slippers were appreciated. The bathrobes were… well, they existed.
Bathroom phone? Yes. Essential? Probably not.
The coffee/tea maker was essential. The free bottled water was much-needed. The desk functioned. But the biggest takeaway about the rooms? They're… basic. Think functional, rather than fancy. The decorations felt a little tired. They need an upgrade – desperately.
(Available in all rooms: Functional, but dated. Wi-Fi and air conditioning are key positives.)
Services & Conveniences - The Little Things That Matter (Sometimes)
They have all the usual suspects, the concierge, the laundry service, the luggage storage. The doorman was friendly, although slightly overwhelmed at times. They offer cash withdrawal. The daily housekeeping staff were lovely, but the ironing service? Don’t bother. Just wear something wrinkle-resistant, trust me.
(Services and conveniences: Generally good, although some services could be improved.)
For the Kids & Family Fun - A Mixed Bag
They have facilities for kids! Babysitting service and a family/child friendly environment are offered. So, if you have kids, it’s a decent option, but not a dedicated kid-centric resort.
(For the kids: Decent facilities for families looking for a basic location. Not a primary focus.)
Getting Around - Easy Breezy (Mostly)
They offer airport transfer and taxi service. You can also arrange for a car park [free of charge] on-site, which is a definite plus.
(Getting around: Convenient and relatively easy.)
The Verdict: Worth it? Probably. With Caveats.
Look, Unbelievable Views! Twin Towers Hotel isn't perfect. The food can be hit-or-miss, the spa needs some serious TLC, and the elevator drama gave me gray hairs. But, the views? Seriously, they are unbelievable. And the cleanliness and the super friendly and helpful staff? Wonderful.
So, would I recommend it? Yeah, probably. Especially if you're looking for a budget-friendly escape with amazing views and you're not expecting five-star luxury. Just manage your expectations, pack some patience, and maybe bring your own masseuse. And don’t forget the camera!
Chambersburg's BEST Kept Secret: Comfort Inn Review (You Won't Believe This!)
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because we're about to dive HEADFIRST into my "dream" (read: slightly panicked, meticulously planned, yet inevitably disastrous) trip to The Twin Towers Hotel in Kufri, Shimla. Buckle UP, because it's gonna get messy.
Day 1: Arrival and the Great Luggage Fiasco of 2024
Morning (Actually, Midnight): Arrived at Delhi airport. The flight was delayed. My neck pillow deflated halfway through, transforming into a sad, wrinkled lump. My first thought was, "I hope the hotell has wifi".
Early hours: Okay, so it's 5 AM. I grab my phone and call the hotel about the pickup. What a relief, it's arranged and ready to go!
Mid-morning: Arrive at The Twin Towers via a slightly terrifying taxi ride. The roads? Let's just say the driver has a… unique driving style. The hotel itself? Well, it's exactly as advertised, which, if you ask me, is a small miracle. The view? Absolutely breathtaking. The air is crisp, the mountains are majestic, and I’m pretty sure my soul just sighed with contentment.
Afternoon: And here’s where the "perfection" unravels. My luggage. It's. Not. Here. Yep. Lost. Gone. Poof. Blame it on the airline gods, the gremlins, or my innate ability to attract chaos. Panic set in. I have three shirts and a toothbrush. I start running around the hotel like a headless chicken.
Late Afternoon: After a lot of yelling and a good cry to the staff (hey, sometimes you just need a good cry), the front desk is amazing. They are genuinely sympathetic and promise to do everything they can. Thankfully, they can locate some shops where I am able to buy some necessities. I'm now armed with a slightly-too-large sweater (mountain evenings, remember?) and the distinct feeling that I’m going to have a very interesting story to tell.
Evening: The hotel restaurant. Okay. So, the food is… okay. The service is a bit slow. A table of four elderly people keeps arguing. I am distracted. The coffee is strong, which is all I can wish for at this point. I can taste the spice of the local dishes, and after a long time feeling very tired, it tastes good. I decide, after the food, to just crash out in my room. I watch the mountains change colors as the sun sets, and feel glad that I am here.
Day 2: Kufri's Charms and a Sledding Mishap
- Morning: Breakfast! The breakfast is not amazing, but edible. The view is a little better, and I watch the sun rise over the mountain. I'm starting to feel normal. I think. I hope.
- Mid-morning: We're off to Kufri! Horse ride. Ooof. Let's just say my balance is questionable. I cling to the saddle for dear life, praying I don’t become one with the mountain. The views, however, are amazing. I'm pretty sure the horse is judging me.
- Afternoon: Sledding! Yay! I'm actually really good at this! Who knew? Okay, maybe not. I'm pretty sure I'm going to lose my first major injury. I'm now covered in snow and my laughter is replaced by a sore back. It's the kind of experience that you laugh about later. It was awesome.
- Late Afternoon: Back at the hotel, warm shower, thank the Lord. Ordering room service. I've learned my lesson, stick with the familiar. I decide to embrace the chaos. This is what traveling is about. This is a vacation!
- Evening: A quiet night. The stars are bright. I'm a little bit tired. I look at the mountains. They are still there. They are still beautiful. I feel some peace.
Day 3: Exploring Shimla and a Moment of Unexpected Serenity
- Morning: Shimla! The Mall Road! The chaos! The shops! The crowds! It's a sensory overload, in the best possible way.
- Mid-morning: The Ridge. The views are stunning. The architecture is impressive. I wander around, letting the energy of the city wash over me. I buy some souvenirs and try not to get scammed.
- Afternoon: I escape the hustle and bustle and find a quiet spot in a small, tucked-away temple. The scent of incense, the sound of chanting… it's a moment of pure tranquility. I'm not religious, but I feel something. I feel connected. It's weird. It's wonderful.
- Late Afternoon: I head back. Back to the hotel. The journey back from Shimla is a long one, and I am very tired.
- Evening: Dinner at the hotel again. Same food, different day. I'm starting to feel like I know the staff, and it's starting to feel a little bit like home. More mountain views. Sleep.
Day 4: Departure (And Hopefully, My Luggage!)
- Morning: I check out. I collect my luggage, miraculously it's here! Yay!
- Late Morning: Say goodbye to the Twin Towers. I will always remember this experience. I wonder if I will come back. It's a strange feeling. It's a good one.
- Afternoon: Flight home. Back to regular life. I'm already dreaming about the next trip.
Final Thoughts:
This trip was messy. It was imperfect. It was tiring. It was also absolutely, wonderfully human.
It was also the kind of experience that will stay with me forever. I'll remember the beauty, the laughter, the chaos, and the warmth of the people I met. I'll remember the mountains, the snow, and the feeling of quiet peace.
And hey, maybe next time I'll pack a little better… and maybe, just maybe, I'll bring some comfortable riding pants.
