About Seventh Heaven
Seventh Heaven earns its metaphysical name with a seventh-floor position above the Mall Road that places its windows above the rooflines of central Shimla, facing the panoramic sweep of the Himalayan foothills. The view at sunset, when the colonial-era red roofs catch the last light and the mountains beyond purple slowly into darkness, is one of the great urban vistas in the Indian hills.
Hotel Combermere has built Seventh Heaven as its flagship dining room, investing seriously in the menu and kitchen infrastructure. The result is a restaurant that operates significantly above the average hotel restaurant standard: an extensive multi-cuisine menu executed with genuine care, supported by a wine list that includes Sula, Grover Zampa, and several imported labels.
The room is designed around the view — glass walls on two sides, tables positioned to ensure unobstructed sightlines from every seat — and the interior follows through: fireplace operational from October, upholstered seating, low lighting calibrated for the romantic occasion rather than the business dinner.
Seventh Heaven is the restaurant that Shimla's visitors recommend to friends: the combination of affordable pricing, extraordinary views, and a kitchen that respects its guests enough to cook properly makes it one of the north Indian hills' essential tables.
Best Occasion Fit
For proposals: the seventh-floor view, the firelit interior, and the fact that Seventh Heaven is not the most expensive room in the city make it the ideal proposal setting. Reserve the corner window table and arrange the champagne service in advance.
