Bandhavgarh Jungle Lodge. Access:• Jabalpur Airport (200 Km) • Khajuraho Airport (270 Km) • Umaria Railway Station (32 Km) • Kanha (280 Km)Located within walking distance of Bandhavgarh National Park’s main gate, the lodge has been developed on the theme of an Indian village, with twelve thatched double–bedded cottages around an inner courtyard. There are two separate villas with further accommodations of eight rooms. A spacious thatched dining room serving home cooked Indian food and Continental cuisines, becomes the center point of activities like campfire performances, lectures and star gazing. The estate has meadows that attract deer and fruit trees that are home to birds and butterflies. An occasional alarm call from the jungle close by alerts you to the tiger on the prowl! Bandhavgarh Jungle Lodge provides a professional resident naturalist, a library with wildlife books and magazines. Laundry services and recreational activities are also available – Jungle safaris in open 4x4 vehicles, bird watching, nature or village walks, elephant camps, and visits to the weekly market local fair or village schools. Bar-be-que dinners and campfire nights with tribal dances are some of the surprises in store for you!

The lodge is situated just beside the Tala core zone entry gate. The lodge has cottages and they have been designed and decorated beautifully. The staff and their hospitality is just outstanding. Since we were going on Safaris in mornings, the staff made sure that the breakfast is nicely packed , with great attention to details . In the evening and night safaris which ends quiet late , the staff waited for our return to serve us delicious food even at 11 pm. Mr Karthikeyan and Mr Simran who were the naturalists were wonderful to talk to and provided us with loads of information. If you are in Bhandhavgarh, would highly recommend this place for staying. The thrilling experience of getting to see tigers in their natural environment along with Jungle lodge's great hospitality made our vacation really memorable.

The Jungle Lodge fulfilled all expectation matching its reputation as one of the oldest in the region. It has perfectly blended the old and the new, with rooms still retaining their classical fittings, with the addition of all the modern amenities to make one's stay more comfortable. The staff, were by far, its greatest asset, especially for someone like me with mobility restrictions. Not only had care been taken to place me in a chalet close to the dining room, but there seemed to always be someone 'camped' outside of the chalet to wheel my chair to the waiting safari jeeps and for meals - always with a cheery smile, even when the unseasonal rains had made the gravel walkways a little muddy and one required an extra push along the short journey to the dining room. A sumptuous outdoor barbecue, served on a dining table that evoked reminiscences of years gone by, and a warning that a wild elephant was roaming the borders of the lodge, what more could one ask for on the final evening of our journey? A leopard had been seen near the Car Park by those first out early that morning, such is the Lodge's nearness to the Park. The Management, the charming Naturalists and, most of all, the staff made for a memorable, and comfortable, 3 days at the Lodge...a place to be heartily recommended to any discerning visitor to Bandhavghar.

I have been visting Bandhavarh for quite some time now but this was the first time I stayed at the Bnadhavgarh Jungle Lodge. I can say that this was my best and the most comfortable trip so far. The lodge is just beautiful. The rooms are neat and clean and they are cleaned more than once in a day. It was raining during this time and my shoes often carried some mud but everytime i went out and came back to the room, they were super clean. It's super comfortable and the whole vibe of the place matches with the surroundings. They also are really sustainable when it comes to the use of resources. The staff is really friendly and super courteous. Sadhvi Singh, the manager, made sure that there was aboslutely no problem in my stay and didn't let me break a sweat for anything, from stay to food to safaris. She ensured that my stay at the lodge becomes a memorable one. Simranjeet Singh, the naturalist, is a great company in the jungle and is a great asset when it comes to spotting birds and most importantly the tigers. He is quick with his predictions of the tiger movement and often got me into really good angles to click the tigers. Special mention to the chefs who never made me feel like i'm having a food in a hotel, it was homely and at the same time so delicious that I overate all my meals. I would not think twice before booking a stay and infact, i will be troubling the lodge more often now that i have a great place to stay. It's like a home away from home.

Our final stop on this tiger safari was the wonderful Bandhavgarh Jungle Lodge, located just off the busy Tala main road, with easy access to the Bandhavgarh National Park. We were completely blown away by the exceptional hospitality, care to detail and friendliness of the management team and staff at the Bandhavgarh Jungle Lodge. The Jungle Lodge had been established by an ardent conservationist some 30 years before and the current management and staff had done a wonderful job of ensuring and expanding on those original conservationist goals. Once again, the attention to detail – hair dryers and power strips in the bedrooms, ample tea and coffee in the bedrooms, lovely sitting areas to enjoy the surrounding jungle either in company or by yourself, the delicious food, prepared in interesting ways including a campfire style barbeque and finally, the extreme dedication of the staff to ensure that your time at the Lodge was magical was truly appreciated. While once again, we had amazing sightings of tigers, bear and many other species, when we returned to the Lodge and were greeted by the friendly staff, it was like we were coming home. I highly recommend Bandhavgarh Jungle Lodge as your venue when you decide to visit the wondrous Bandhavgarh National Park.

What a little gem of a hotel this is! So much character, beautifully designed and impeccable service. The food was superb. The owners, managers, and staff went well beyond the call of duty to make sure we had a great time. The safaris were spectacular. I didn’t imagine we would see so many tigers! Thank you for making our trip so special.

Whilst the rooms are stunning, the property located right next to the gate and the food exceptional, what really makes this place stand out is the staff. They really went out of their way to do the utmost for us. They made our experience seamless. A lovely bit of luxury in the wilderness.

amazing wildlife experience! staff was attentive. game viewing was first class. food was really good. all requests were honored and all guests were made to feel comfortable. I was staying with a small group and most of us coincidentally turned up with sudden health challenges. This required special arrangements for meals and meal times. Game drives needed to be juggled—all in all a lot for a small lodge. They handled this effortlessly like a five star resort. Also the air conditioning in the guest rooms worked great—100 plus degree temperatures so it helped make our stay comfortable. Note there is no air conditioning in the dining area but mealtime temperatures are generally acceptable
