Hotel Byepass & Bye Pass Dhaba

You can find us up at the check post in New Shimla. We are right near the forest area, which is actually quite nice because it feels a bit different from the crowded parts of the main town. We run both the hotel and the dhaba here. It's a lot of work keeping both going at the same time. The address is technically Shimla 171009. Being on the bypass means we see a lot of trucks and people driving through to other parts of the mountains. The air is a bit cooler up here near the trees. In the mornings, we start the kitchen early because people traveling want their tea and breakfast before they get back on the road. The rooms are just basic spots to sleep. We don't have any of those fancy amenities you see in the big city hotels. It’s more about being a practical stop for tired drivers or families who don't want to deal with the chaos of the Ridge or the Mall Road. We do the cooking and the cleaning ourselves mostly. It’s a quiet life except for the sound of engines now and then. Sometimes monkeys from the forest come around, which keeps things interesting. We just keep the place running day by day, making sure there is hot food and a place to rest. It is a humble spot for anyone passing the check post. We are just here doing the work every day.
