A beautiful place to see...
The station is well maintained and Waiting hall is also nice. One thing which you should keep in mind is you'll get drinking water for refilling which has taste and scent of Chlorination tablets. All over Shimla you'll get the same water with same taste.

On my day of return, I and my family were surrounded by around 4-5 monkeys😂
When i went to Shimla, it was really a tough job to enjoy the scenic beauty from balcony. Even in Hanuman temple also we had to face monkeys.
In the temple, a monkey took away a pair of shoes of some visitor and also one person's specs😆
I always put my specs in pocket whenever i see monkeys.
Not a problem since i have been grown up in Firozabad which is having a large population of monkeys(equal to Mathura/Vridavan).

Right at the Mall road, so tourists visiting Manali-Rohtang from Shimla can get PRS tickets (Tatkal or otherwise) from Manali itself!
I stayed in retiring room @ Shimla station during feb 2019 for 48 hrs.
Pros:
