Best experience ever thanks to Mice hospitality Mr Ravi from ITC Fortune to arrange this experience. Me and my family felt Royal and experienced the luxury of Royalty. The staff the cuisine and the experience is worth experiencing again and again.. it sets up the mood to visit Hampi which is again ruins of one of the Richest dynasty.More
Talk about Beauty, Royality and an absolutely Amazing Hospitality and "The Shivavilas Palace" is the place to see all. Situated in the calm and peaceful locality in Sandur, the palace is the evidence of its history.
We stayed in the Palace for three days and were amazed at the rich experience that it provides. The place is royal, surrounded by lush green gardens, vintage setting with an exceptionally comfortable experience and great staff that is always their for support. Cheers to the amazing hospitality! I was amazed to see how the Palace is still engaged in the everyday royal rituals like doing the arti poojan at the temples. The vintage cars are such a treat for eyes. The food is amazing and so is the ambiance. It literally gives you the feeling of Royality that one wishes to gauge the experience of while choosing a heritage property. Thank you for the great experience

It's was last minute trip to Humpi.. But luckily found this Heritage property and got a good deal..
Pros: Large rooms and Excellent service.. The best part is the food.. The menu items are limited, but the all of them taste awesome.. It's not about the number of items, the taste matters..
Cons: This property is 40 kms away from Humpi, but the road to Hampi is good so just 45 mins drive..
Overall just go for it..
Thank you for your very positive and kind comments. We endeavor to maintain the Heritage and our standard of service.
We came back from Hampi not only with the memories of the ruins of Vijaynagar Empire but also with the imprint created by the Shiva Vilas hospitality.
Mr Sameer deserves a special mention here. He always made sure of our comfort and delight factor. Delight came through his management skills ranging from keeping the kids too immersed in doughnuts , arranging for vintage car gallery and museum tour.We have been to many hotels across the country but never came back remembering each and every staff of the hotel. Mr Swamy was another person who kept us happy through tasty and customised menu. Other staff were also very courteous though i am forgetting their names.
The rooms standards in terms of hygiene matches any star hotel. Adults and kids have ample activities to do in leisure time ranging from swimming to board games. Otherwise a stroll around the beautiful palace itself so fulfilling.
Though its little inside but given the choices in Hampi this stands out to be the best option. I will surely recommend this hotel for an absolute luxury cum relaxing trip to Hampi.
Dear Guest,
Thank you for writing on TripAdvisor and for sharing your wonderful review with us.
We are pleased to hear that you have thoroughly enjoyed our accommodation, hospitality, services and facilities
Thank you once again for your support, recommendation and for appreciating our efforts so well.
The hotel is not in a very touristy place - other than the ancient Kumaraswamy temple, there is hardly anything to do in Sandur. In house, the vintage car museum is more like a garage, there is a small pool to keep you cool; you can cycle around a bit or play darts in an activity room. But thats just about it!
So what made the stay memorable / worthwhile - indubitably the service. Mr Sameer & his team personalize the experience to an extent you start feeling 'at home'. Be it humoring a kids wishes for doughnuts ( at night ) or helping with the day's itinerary, arranging a spa appointment in a different hotel...there is no wish that these genies cannot fulfil!
The room we stayed in was quite atmospheric. Breakfast, however was pretty modest but still tasteful...
An absolute must do in my opinion...best wishes to the team!

Thank you
One of the most beautiful places to stay, with a welcoming hospitality and great food to add the cherry on top. Totally worth the money, and would be a different experience as compared to other 5-star hotels.
This is far too cozy than other 5-stars we have stayed in - only 12 odd rooms in the palace which makes far more personal. We got a food inclusive package and they packed our food thoughtfully when we were to be out full day.
Place had a vintage car museum and Alas, how well they maintained these Vintage cars.
I do think, it is a must stay place if you are going to Hampi.
Thank you for your very positive and kind comments. We endeavor to maintain the Heritage and our standard of service.
