Woodville
Palace
Shimla
Code No- HPS 08
Woodville
palace
has a history dating back to 1866 when Sir William Mansfield,
Commander-in-Chief of the imperial army became the first resident
of the charming estate. The palace was reconstructed in 1938
by the Rana of Jubbal when hundreds of expert artisans were
brought from far and wide to ensure the highest quality of craftsmanship.
Kanwar Udai Singh opened a part of the mansion as a guest house
in 1977 and today, the palace is one of the finest places to
stay in Shimla.
Located at 7000
feet near the heart of Shimla, the ‘Queen of The Hills ', Woodville
Palace is the Kohinoor on this queen’s crown. Stepping into
the impeccable Woodville Palace of the Royal family of Jubbal
is like stepping into a time machine where one is transported
to the British Raj of the 1930’s. The palace is adorned with
multi level rose gardens and lawns. It is also considered a
gateway to lesser-known and equally spectacular hill stations
of Kufri and Chail.
Woodville Palace is spread over 4 acres of lush greenery and
enveloped by towering deodar and pine forests.serving as a backdrop,
Woodville Palace is built in the style of an English Country
Manor and houses thirty-one rooms. The rooms are furnished imperiod
style of the 1930’s and beautifully capture that time for its
guests. Each room has a separate theme and no two rooms are
decorated alike.

The
recent addition to Woodville Palace is the beautiful garden
restaurant called ‘The House of the Rising Sun’, which was
inaugurated by the Bollywood Superstar Amitabh Bachchan.
It is aesthetically located in the sprawling gardens of
Woodville Palace and is surrounded by bamboo and deodars,
which provide an ideal and natural enclosure. Constructed
purely out of clear glass, one can see and hear the raindrops
drumming against the roof and running down the glass walls
even as one is indulging into scrumptious delights.
