Our stay at The Khyber Hotel was truly a pleasant surprise from start to finish. The location is excellent — conveniently close to Anandpur Sahib, making it an ideal choice for visitors who wish to explore the spiritual and historical surroundings without long travel times. The accessibility added great ease to our journey. The check-in process was seamless and efficient, setting a positive tone right from arrival. The Front Office team was warm, attentive, and professional throughout our stay. What genuinely caught us off guard — in the best possible way — were the rooms. They were spacious, impeccably clean, and thoughtfully maintained. The comfort level exceeded our expectations and made our stay even more enjoyable. A special mention to the Front Office staff member who also graciously doubled up in housekeeping and as a restaurant steward. While we regret not remembering his name, we will never forget his dedication, humility, and outstanding service. It is rare to see such commitment and versatility delivered with a smile. The food at the restaurant was another highlight — delicious, authentic, and prepared with care. Every meal reflected true local flavors, adding to the overall experience. Overall, The Khyber Hotel offers great location, genuine hospitality, and exceptional value. We would gladly recommend it to anyone visiting Anandpur Sahib and look forward to returning again.

While our overall experience was very positive, there are a few areas that could be further enhanced. The shower water temperature was slightly inconsistent and at one point became unexpectedly very hot. Improved temperature regulation would certainly add to guest comfort and safety. Additionally, the shower blinds could benefit from deeper cleaning to align with the otherwise good cleanliness standards of the room. It would also be helpful if the restaurant could open earlier to accommodate guests who need to depart early for travel or temple visits. An early breakfast option would greatly enhance convenience for such guests.

Good room size with friendly staff but bathrooms need better extractor fan as bathroom and bed get very steamed up.

Roller blind in bathroom not good as mould developing would be better to stick frosted glass stickers on window or change glass to frosted glass. Also needs strong extractor fan in bathroom to stop condensation/mould.
