Top 10 Reasons stay in Chapslee
About Chapslee Palace, Shimla
Evocative of a bygone era, Chapslee, formerly the summer residence of the late Hon'ble Raja Charanjit Singh of Kapurthala, is now a small, exclusive Hotel. The Hon'ble Raja Charanjit Singh of Kapurthala was a member of the erstwhile Council of States and had the distinction and privilege of being an invitee to the coronations of both King George V and King Edward VIII. He was a host and gourmet extraordinaire and his table was considered to be one of the finest in northern India.
Built in 1835, Chapslee was acquired by Lord Auckland, then Governor General of the East India Company. The declaration of the first war against Afghanistan known as 'The Afghan Manifesto', was signed at Chapslee on the first of October, 1838. Sir Edward Buck writes in his famous book,
Simla Past and Present, "In the opinion of many good judges, Chapslee is surpassed by no other Simla residence in arrangement and general advantages".

Interesting History of Hotel Chapslee Shimla
HOTEL CHAPSLEE Shimla is a Heritage Manor and is one of the oldest surviving residences of Shimla. It is also considered to be extraordinary in terms of architecture, interior design and decor. It was the summer residence of Raja Charanjit Singh of Kapurthala.
His grandson, Kanwar Ratanjit Singh is the present owner and he continues to reside at Chapslee, with his wife. Chapslee was opened to guests in 1976, to enable the property to pay for its upkeep and maintenance and is, thus, an attempt at conservation and not a business venture.
The house continues to be "in its original state", as there has been no change, whatever, since 1940. Some of the artefacts, object d'arts, fabric and upholstery are centuries old.
