Ilbert Manor

This hotel is an excellent property serving delicious food and having an excellent view but the only negative point is the approach. The hotel is on the mall road but downhill 150 metres steep descent. You can not take your car to the hotel as the entrance from Mussorie Mall Road is too narrow. My car just escaped getting damaged trying to enter the passage. Small cars like the hatchbacks and sedans can enter easily not recommended for big suv or luxury sedans. The staff is very friendly and cooperative. They would drop us to the mall road in the car and even pick us up but if you ask me I would prefer a hotel on the mall road so I can venture out easily without any trouble plus had to shell out extra for parking 3 days which otherwise would have been avoidable.

We stayed at the Ilbert Manor, Mussoorie from 3rd to 8th. There were five of us across 3 rooms on the first floor, with a view to die for. The manager Mr Jeevan was extremely helpful, and the staff consisting of Deva, Sachin, Gokul and Shankar ensured prompt, efficient and smiling service at all times. We preferred to have dinner on all five nights in the hotel and their food was simple, freshly made and tasty although there was limited choice. We liked the Tandoor items and the home made chicken curry was yummy. The cozy restaurant offers a classy ambience and is the right place for a leisurely drink with the family, after an end to end walk of the mall road. The hotel is bang at the start of the mall road on the Library side although around 200 metres below. It’s a sharp descent and enjoyable to walk down but climbing up from the hotel to the mall road across the steep slope leaves one panting for breath. The staff was extremely kind to drop us up the mall road twice daily in their car as we went around enjoying the scenery in and around Mussoorie. The hotel building is a 180 year old structure tastefully restored and the chandeliers, wood paneling and the red carpet transform you into a bygone era full of old world charm. The rooms are comfortable, with warm water and a heater to take care of the pleasantly cold weather. The day temperatures during our stay ranged from 10-16C and plummeted during the night to 3C. We woke up to breathtaking views of the snow capped Himalaya in the background and the beautifully rugged Shivalik range in the foreground. The restaurant and the breakfast room are very classy and it’s a pleasure to dine there as the service is superb. The lawn at the back of the hotel is a very pleasant place to spend evenings with the family. Thank you for giving us memories of a lifetime, we will always treasure our stay at Ilford Manor.

Property is located where Himalaya view is enchanting. Hospitality is excellent. Library bazar uis just 400 meters from the property. It is just far from the madding crowd as well near to market. Rooms are neat and clean.

This is one of the best hotel in mussoorie for stay, such a peaceful area with good staff members and the food is really good amazing service and cooperative staff and special thanks to Mr Jeevan he handled this property very well..

Jeevan is awesome awesome host. I travelled solo from dubai n was having difficult in finalizing place as it was Christmas time.
