Just a stone throw away from
Doon, the
hill station of Mussoorie is also known as the Queen of Hills. Mussoorie remains
the closest hill station to Delhi and after going through a bad phase of
lot of commercialization, things have started improving with a ban of new
construction in Mussorie and string guard of the green cover of Musoorie
by the authorities. The real action is around the Mall road with a lot of
eateries and entertainment options including the Cable car which takes you
to Gun Hill, Mussoorie and remains a great hit with the tourist coming to
Mussorie from all over India. Though at the same time if you are looking
for a quieter holiday, leave the Mall behind and look around Mussoorie you may succeed in finding that
old world charm and some quiet and solitude. We have tried also to put
together a list of Mussoorie hotels which serve to all tastes and pockets
in and around Mussoorie including some very preety ones. We also give you
the convenience of booking these hotels from the comfort of your desk
after deciding on the hotel/resort where you want to spend your holiday.
