There are plenty of hotels on the road that leads from Kalka railway station. Most the hotels are at the low end but some want top end prices.
Weather should be ok. I went a few years ago in July. The weather in Punjab and Haryana was very hot but at Kalka it was fine and a bit cooler than Chandigarh. |
