Temperature in Shimla early April?

Does anyone know what temps to expect in early April? Are sweaters and jackets necessary? I hope so. What about in Dharamsala?. I just want to make sure I pack the right gear, not too much of course.

The day-time temperature at Shimla will be in the early twenties, night-time 5 to 6 degrees lower. One sweater will be enough.

Dharamsala, being at a lower altitude than Shimla, will be warmer.

This is a very common question, and I have temperature questions too; the LP and RG have pages with the monthly temprature and rainfall statistics for a handful places, but is the any website that lists these for India, for more than a couple of cities?

I have about 10 days and I hope to spend about 5 days in Shimla and use it as a base. Then either Dharamsala or Manali

suginami,

I suggest you spend 5 days at Shimla and the balance at Kullu,Manali.

H.P.will be great in early April.

Thanks for the suggestion. Do you know of a great hotel in Delhi that has a bit of history and a good garden?

hmmm.., no, none I can think of.

Perhaps our friends on the forum, particularly the Delhites, can help.

The Imperial, if you can afford it.
Oberoi Maidens, if you can't.
Otherwise, perhaps you can compromise.

How much is the Imperial?

is there any website that will tell us how much the temp would be all year round. I might be going in early may so i'm thinking it would be around 70s or 80s right? Hopefully it won't warmer than that.
