Stayed at the wonderful Ustavacamp for 3 nights. We came direct from London, a four hour drive during rush hour. Totally loved this place settled into nature and overlooking pleasant agricultural/ natural landscapes. We had a fantastic experience viewing 2 leopard cubs whilst on an early morning breakfast. There are several excursions and trips you can make from the hotel. The stone cabins are like high quality hotel rooms rather than rustic cabins. We saw 51 species of birds in 3 days and loved just walking out from the camp. The Sariska game reserve is close by too. Would totally recommend to anyone who wants to decompress, enjoy nature and relax. The hotel team were great and went that extra mile for you. Thankyou Dany, Inder, Menaxi, Gauvar and the rest of the staff that I can’t remember!

We visited Utsav camp during this Holi with family and friends and had a wonderful time. You get a feeling of positivity as soon as you enter the property. Lovely views of the Aravali range amidst very well maintained organic farms with beautiful tented accommodation. Food was authentic and you could feel the freshness of ingredients from their own farm. They have beautiful rustic nooks for photography from where our group enjoyed the sunset and also clicked a lot of pictures together. The icing on the cake was the attention to detail they undertook by placing pristine white Mulmul Kurta Pyjamas for every couple in the room for Holi celebration. This was followed by a wonderful Holi party with organic colors, local musicians and drinks. We felt like Bollywood stars donning those kurtas and danced our hearts out. Thankyou for making our Holi so beautiful and colorful.

FIrst of all I must praise the restaurant. The indian food here is truly outstanding, and we didn't bother with the western options until the spice caught us out. Wine is very expensive, but that has been the case throughout our trip. They do allow your own wine with a corkage fee.
The en suite room was lovely , comfortable, air-conditioned and spacious, but the local electricity supply apparently does not allow for a room fridge. However reception will deliver cold water on request....just drink it quickly as it soon warms up.
This camp is 6 km from the Sariska National park, where we spent a pleasant 3hr morning drive. We saw plenty of birds, deer and antelope but unfortunately no cats. Shub, the wildlife manager , accompanied us and is a great chap with loads of knowledge of the wildlife here. We also did the boulder hike with him in the early evening. We managed to spot 2 leopard and a hyena. Not easy sightings. He also keeps beautiful horses on site for guest rides.

the staff at the utsav camp was consistently proactive, helpful, and friendly. Always eager to make every guest’s stay as comfortable as possible. We celebrated my mom’s 60th birthday. And the hotel organised dinner by the river amd boulders under the starlit sky. the atmosphere was ethereal and service was top notch. in general, the food was delicious. it was always freshly prepared, and whilst that did make the process of food arriving a touch slow, it ensured that the food was piping hot and exquisite in taste. the rooms were spacious and well maintained by the staff. they also have an excellent initiative to reduce plastic consumption. they provided filtered water in the rooms in glass bottles that were refilled as per the need. there was also an excellent library with a rustic design and cozy vibe. the property is lush green and the view around is impeccable. the rooftop lounge is an excellent location to enjoy hi-tea or a few drinks with your friends and family… and the cold coffee they serve there is out of this world! A special mention to the friendly and hospitable demeanour of Mr. Vishwajeet, the hotel manager. He paid personal attention to every guest to make the stay very comfortable. he brightened our time with many different anecdotes and was extremely helpful in organising all of the recreational activities. all in all, a 10/10 stay!

Had an amazing time in Utsav Camp. We chose this gorgeous place for two reasons- we were looking to escape to nature, to peace and tranquillity; and secondly somewhere close to Sariska Tiger Reserve. We visited the tiger reserve which was literally 10min away (core zone). This lodge itself is based in the buffer zone of Sariska national park. Utsav property is absolutely gorgeous. The place has been carefully designed that combines nature, elegance, comfort and beautiful Indian character through carefully selected Indian artefacts. Every corner shouted quality during the time we spent. The stone cabin where we stayed were very spacious, comfortable and had its own back garden which offered a sense of privacy. It just felt very special to stay there. The property boasts tonnes of beautifully crafted plants out there. They imported soil of various kinds just to add a range of variety of plants within the large expanse of this property. There were about 72 different species of birds in Utsav Camp alone! The beautiful mountains wrapped the property around offering breath-taking views at a distance. Sariska has the highest population of peacocks in the world, and you really get to witness that 🙂 The staff at Utsav really know how to create a hospitable environment. Not just that every person working there was an expert of some kind. When we arrived, they greeted us at the reception with some delicious fruit juices and towels to freshen up. They talked us through the plan we had to visit the tiger reserve and all the other experiences we had booked with them. Their staff had struck the right balance of being attentive and knowing when to leave you alone to just enjoy. Little gestures like Vishwajeet (who's the main person incharge) and Rajeshwari leaving us handwritten notes in our room to welcome us was a very lovely gesture. The warmth, flexibility and sense of service through hospitality was explicit in every interaction we had from literally all the staff. Food was literally one of the most delicious that I've had (laal maas is a must try). They have options to suit both Asian and Western palates. Naresh who was incharge at the kitchen has done an amazing job with his staff and it shows in their interaction when you visit the restaurant. Special thanks to Indraj and Shailendra who were our waiting staff in the restaurant. We're so grateful to Akash who was our Naturalist. It was a privilege to go on the safari with him, and then on an exciting Boulders walk with him. He is absolutely passionate about nature, wildlife and loves to educate others about them. Thank you so much for such a memorable experience guys. I look forward to coming again at some point in the future 🙂

I stayed with my family at the Utsav Camp Siriska for 1 night from 2-3 Sept 2023. The roads from Delhi - Siriska are fantastic via the Mumbai expressway and one can reach within 3-3.5 hours. The property is quite nice. They have 8 Tented accomodation, 9 stone cottages and 3 Forest Bungalows. Our stone cottage had an huge outdoor sitting areas which is great in the mornings. The experience was quite nice. The whole property is well spread out, so all tents and cottages are not close to one another. There are lot of walking trails within the property with sit out areas. The staff checked us in. We didn't meet the Manager. The rooms and bed linen and seating upholstery could do with a bit of cleaning. The outdoor sitting area was not clean too. The rooms had lizards in the bathroom and bedroom which was an unpleasant experience. A bit of pest control within the rooms could do good. The food was a huge disappointment. Very slow service. Extremely hot in the open air restaurant. Highly priced but not upto the mark. A big let down. Buffet breakfast has very limited items which is next to nothing.
They have some outdoor activities when the Park is shut which is a complete rip off.
The Terrace pool is quite nice though.
This place will be good in winter. Though the food needs to be considerably improved.

Had a fantastic stay at Utsav Camp Sariska! The tents are super comfy, blending luxury with the thrill of being close to nature. The staff is friendly and goes out of their way to make you feel at home. The location is perfect for spotting wildlife—we even saw a leopard on boulders! The food is delicious, especially enjoyed around the evening bonfire. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat with a touch of adventure, this is the place to be!

Overall a very good experience. We were travelling with our parents as well as 3 young kids. Everyone had a great time and enjoyed the hospitality. Summarizing the key positive and improvements below.
Positive - well maintained stone cottages, excellent service, overall vibe of the place ii really good, customisable food and curated experiences like High Tea at the boulders. Kids also enjoyed visiting their farm where they grow vegetables
Improvements - please increase the lights in the room (was hard to find our clothes in the bag during the night) , create a bit more storage in the room.
Overall a must try for everyone.

Visited the property with my family which includes our doggo as well. Cannot express in words the kind of relief we all felt after being locked down and confined to our house during this quarantine! They have revamped the whole property. The new Stone cabins are just breathtaking and complete PAISA VASOOL for the higher amount paid as compared to the tents. The measures taken to safeguard guests from the moment we entered are strict, valid, necessary and yet polite. The Afternoon Tea in the boulders is something that you shouldn't miss. They reserve only 4 afternoon teas on a daily basis not even a single extra. Quite exclusive. LOVED IT! Going back to this place sooner than I think to.
