4/10 Fair

Isolated hotel with expensive services
About 8km from Tala. No taxis so ring reception for pickup. Gardens nice, swimming pool very small. Good breakfast. Dinner ok but small portions. There is no WiFi or router in this resort contrary to what is advertised. Hot water in bathroom available on request. Jeep safaris from here expensive @ 6500 rupees (£72} per trip; should be approx. 4000 rupees for whole jeep / couple incl. guide, best to go in person to Park's ticket office at South end of Tala to avoid being ripped off {difficult to do if you don't have your own transport so you're entirely at their mercy and there's no mercy here when it comes to extracting money from foreigners}. The shuttle service provided by the hotel to Jabalpur Airport is an overpriced taxi costing 5500 rupees; it should be 3000 rupees as it is 150km each way (Indian taxis charge 8-10 rupees / km). On the whole this resort is expensive for what you get.
