Ilbert Manor, Mussoorie- The Corner that I Loved Most

Posted on July 10, 2011
Ilbert Manor, Mussoorie
Ilbert Manor, Mussoorie

When I reached the Ilbert Manor late in the afternoon, I was quite zonked because of the Avomine (anti nausea medicine for mountain roads). I was quite quickly given the keys of my room and I headed to the second floor of the two story building. This was the view that greeted me. I completely flipped when I saw the slanting roof, the long corridor and the light streaming in. There were cozy chairs near the  windows and that was the favorite corner of mine. Also the windowsills were so thick you could sit on them comfortably and look out.

    The building looks too good, like you said the slanting roof and the length adds to the charm of the whole place. So did you sit on the window sill?

    Why hotels are so expensive (based on their quality, services and facilities) in India? 🙁
