This was our second visit to this place, the first stay was awesome and it inspired us to take other friends along. We planned for second visit in jan 2020 , for our surprise manager at resort was not informed about our booking and advance payment received by marketing team. We had to prove along with voucher and banking transactions, later manger reconfirmed with marketing team and there was a blame game between their own team. This made us to wait for 40 minutes to get our rooms. Lunch was served to us at 4pm after a big verbal fight between us , marketing guy and the resort manger. Marketing person have no idea about how to speak with customers , he acts as if he is a big goon . Manager and marketing team seriously have some big communication and ego issue because of which customers have to suffer....... Anyone who is booking in advance kindly make sure that you coordinate with resort manager ..... Support staff , housekeeping, food all are at their best…

We stayed in the resort for 1 day on November 3rd 2018 and i am very glad that it was just 1 day. Room was not maintained well, torn curtains, bad bathroom, place full of insects and not well lit at all. Resort name says, stay simple but but the price was not so simple given the facilities and comfort offered (4.4k bucks is too much). Pros: 1) Its a place far off from city hustle and bustle. Day time when you are out and enjoying the nature you feel this the place to be. 2) Place close to a dam(not too worth, but still ok for a walk nearby) and paddy fields. Looked peaceful. 3) Food was decent. Cons: 1) Overpriced 2) Lots and lots of insects at the onset of evening. We were struggling to settle at a place inside the room to have our meal, afraid of a random insect falling in to our plate. The ceiling made of clay tiles had a of gaps and on top the mosquito nets at the windows were torn, adding to the problem. 3) Did not feel to take a bath in the bathroom, it was really bad. If you are expecting at least a decent room given the price, you will be disappointed. I do not recommend this place.…

We were glad to host you. Thank you for your feedback, we will work on the issues you have highlighted. Our staff makes it a point to serve our guests to the best. Being surrounded by fields and being in a open country area, insects tend to come in the evening. We tell guests to keep the doors and windows of their rooms closed and then it isn't a problem. Pricing of the resort depends on a number of factors including the season and availability. We look forward to serve you, your friends and family at our resorts at Hassan, Sakleshpur, Coorg, Goa or Jaisalmer. Best wishes, Shriram S.

The Resort is just 7KM far from Holenarasipura. It was so good and enjoyed another memory filled staying at the Stay Simple Riverdale. We stayed 2 Days, there were very enjoyable and comfortable to stay the least. The attention given by staff and management were as usual excellent in all aspects. We are lost for words to describe the genuine friendliness and respect afforded to us throughout our stay at this wonderful Resort. We would also like to make special mention of the excellent quality of the meals served on all time by the extremely attentive staff. We would like to express our grateful thanks to Mr.Poojith, Mr.Baskar and management team for another enjoyable and memorable stay.

We stayed at this resort for one night. We checked out and visited Belur and Halebidu the next day and returned to Bangalore after that. As the name suggests, the stay is simple. No luxuries in the rooms. But the rooms are clean and spacious. The resort has a huge area. The provide bicycles which you can ride around the place. My kid enjoyed the place. They also have a nice pool. The food is very tasty and has a homemade feel to it. The people at the resort are very helpful and always smiling.There is a beautiful dam near the resort which is very nice and peaceful. Overrall if you want to have a simple and pleasant stay with good food, this is a place to book.

It is a bit far from Bangalore. It takes about 3-3.5 hours from Bangalore. What I liked the most was the food and courtesy extended by the staff. They provide you a bon fire. rooms are spacious. The resort has a small swimming pool, which is not well maintained. you get value for money here

Thanks. The distance from Bangalore is 180 kms and it is a 3 hour drive if one leaves in the early hours from Bangalore. The road condition all the way to the resort is very good. We have cleaned the swimming pool post the monsoons. Happy to have your family and friends at our other resorts at Coorg, Mysore, Goa, Jaisalmer.

Had been on a friends and family trip to this place and it was a pleasant place to stay and the amenities provided were in line with the expectations we carried. We were recommended to this place from one of our friend who was an earlier visitor here and the whole bunch of us really enjoyed at this place. The place is right next to a check dam, even this dam was good with its water gushing out even during the summer. The place has a awesome swimming pool where all d kids n even d adults njoyed soaking it up, has open area for your own invented games to play including cricket, basketball n Lagori!!! Food served was awesome and the manager made it a point to discuss the menu everytime trying to make sure that our palates were furnished with good food. Staff is courteous and is always there to meet most of your requirements. Manager is doing a god job of maintaining the place and staff and thus ensuring the clients are received well and taken care of. Place may need a bit of a ship shape and a ounce of energy towards cleanliness, otherwise its a good place to relax and be among with ur buddies.…

This is a nice resort close to Bangalore. It is close to Hassan and enjoys good weather through the year. It is near a scenic check dam adding to the beauty of the place. The staff were nice and helpful. It is very good value for money. There is ample space for kids to run around and play and it also has a swimming pool.
