And more costly executive rooms have poorer view than the less costly deluxe rooms. The hotel is in a valley and most of rooms are valley facing and... More

A very good hotel for all kind of budgets. Very nice service and good spacious rooms with good quality of food. You can have a great view of sun set from the back side. We have visited during the peak period of June and enjoyed a lot. It has a very good reception and parking place too.

Hotel Shikar is the best place for a family to stay in Almora. Food is good and the staff behaviour was excellent. The view from the room with attached balcony was superb. Good parking facility. Has a terrace to sit and relax.

The rooms were clean and everything worked. The rooms have good views over the valley from balconies and it is a short walk to the interesting bazaar and temple. The restaurant has a varied menu and the food was good. The hotel is goodvalue for money.

The view from the rooms was superb. The services and the rooms were good....since this rating mechanism doesn't have any option for good, I had to choose average. It is the typical budget accommodation and definitely provides value for money.

Quite affordable with general public, awkward yet amiable and real helpful hotel staff, average food. Not tranquil, bad cable reception. Good parking. Clean and at a good location. And they even sent my identification papers at my home address, quite happily.
