We had the worst experience in this resort. I got a cup of water as ' welcome drink' ! Restaurant and service is bad. One will get some service if he is a foreigner or if you have a beautiful girl in the group. Some people have a very big attitude problem here. Sloth bears can be seen as some... More

We were on a road trip and planning to spend the new year"s eve at Hampi and managed to get an accomodation at the JLR property. The twin benefit forseen was sloth bears sighting for our 6 year old. The property is barely 6-8 months old hence kept in an impeccable fashion. Very neat and clean , the cottages have... More

The Sloth Bear Resort is ideal for those who want to Visit hampi as well as the daroji sloth bear sanctuary. It is amongst the higher end places and is slightly away from the main hampi site but the resort has made arrangements for regular visits. You can enjoy the peace of the place and the in-house naturalist is good... More

Beautiful views of the countryside. Nice cottages with A/C. Friendly staff but very new resort so they need more training to become efficient. For eg...when we arrived there was a kettle but no tea/coffee, towels but no soaps etc. They provide it readily when asked. Food is very good, varied and cooked fresh for each meal. Sloth Bear trip isn't... More

We stayed here in February with our 2 grown daughters. The resort opened in 8.10 so everything is brand new. It totally exceeded our expectations in every area. The rooms are cabins spread about a large area. The cabins are very comfortable, with lovely verandas to sit out on, excellent linens, good beds, AC and fans and hot water. It... More

Hampi had been on our to do list for a while and when we saw that JLR had opened a resort close to Hampi, we just had to do it. We have visited other JLR resorts and have always returned happy. This was no exception to this rule. An absolute star in JLR's crown. It is a little outside the... More

The Sloth Bear resort at Hampi is tucked away on a side road near the Daroji Bear sanctuary. The drive from Bangalore is 85% good, 10% so-so and 5% bad. But it is still worth the visit. The resort itself is well spaced, with ample space between cottages. Food is simply superb. And the best part of it is the... More

Ive been to Hampi and Daroji many times and when I heard that JLR was setting up a property here, I was keen to head there. The location is brilliant, close to both hampi and daroji and offers the best of both worlds to a traveller. Some great views of the morning sun and good service as well..would love to... More
