But as soon as u deal with staff n expect services you 'll realise that there is scope of improvement. for example in dinner food quality was not good n in mrng took long time to prepare breakfast in a la carte order (buffet breakfast was not on offer at...

Orchha is about 15 Kms from Jhansi, and a pilgrim destination. For some weird reason, it is on the tourist map of India, and therefore one can see a lot of foreign tourists around. Apparently, this is the only place where "Bhagwan Ram" is not a "Bhagwan", but a "Raja". That is to say, that the people of Orchha pray... More

We stayed at this hotel for 1 night during a tour through India with On The Go Tours (Travel Inn Tour Company). The hotel is has a pool, a restaurant and large manicured garden areas. The design of the hotel is olden style but the facilities are largely modern – we did not have hot water in our room resulting... More

This impressive hotel is a comparatively new-build in the style of the old colonial grand architecture. It is at first impressive,charming, calm and welcoming. But this masks a general sense of comic, chaotic mis-management .... almost as if the staff cannot live up to the promise of this grandeur.... and they do try- oh how they try! But they fail... More

This hotel is a classic example of a beautiful property completely ruined by its pathetic management. The hotel has breathtaking view, sprawling lawns, an impressive swimming pool and great rooms. But the good part ends there. There was a wedding group when we reached and the place was in a big mess. We chose a room set away from the... More

We stayed here for one night - though Orchha itself is probably deserving of a slightly longer stay and we wished we had more time to spend here. The hotel has Moghul themed design which is quite pleasant, with nice gardens. The rooms are a little basic compared to other (mainly 4 or 5 star) properties we stayed at on... More

The hotel is very nice looking from the outside and has nice grounds. The rooms are spacious but do NOT have wifi, a fridge, hairdryer, safe, face cloth or writing pad. There is no complimentary bottled water, the first hotel in India in which we have stayed to have not provided such. The TV is out of the 70s and... More

Was a pleasant hotel although we were at the very far end of the property. The bonus was it was quite and away from the bus tour groups from Europe. They tend to be as a group VERY noisy and pushy in the restaurants. In the restaurants they eat as though there is never going to be another meal and... More

We wish to thank the entire staff from the hotel who made our stay very special. We even got granted with an upgrade and got the best room (it was a suite) available for the same money. The room was perfect (off course since it was the suite) and we even had bathrobes and a real bathub !! The room... More
