Bandhavgarh Jungle Lodge

We stayed at Bandhavgarh Jungle Lodge for two nights, and it was truly one of the most memorable wildlife experiences we have had. The lodge blends beautifully into the natural surroundings, and you can tell from the start that conservation and sustainability are at the heart of what they do. The staff were incredibly welcoming and knowledgeable, always ready to share insights about the park and wildlife. The rooms are comfortable, with thoughtful touches that make you feel close to nature without compromising on comfort. Meals were homely, fresh, and delicious--often served under the stars, which added a magical touch. I especially appreciated the lodge's eco-friendly practices and how they involve the local community. It's clear they care about both the environment and the guest experience.

Had such a lovely stay at Bandhavgarh Jungle Lodge. The primary reason initially to stay here was it's accessibility to the core jungle which was right adjacent. However, after staying there for 8 nights and 9 days, I have many more reasons to call it as the best place by far to stay after having lodged at other luxury resorts in Bandhavgarh over these years. The warm hospitality, caring attitude, smiling faces all around, tasty food, round the clock service and very well kept rooms are reasons why I would love to stay there again. Sadhvi & Harsh are among some of the best hosts we've met and took great care of us by paying attention to the minutest of our requirement. It genuinely felt like home and the people there gave us commendable service. Thank you to the entire team and we will see you again!

Our three nights at this jungle lodge were truly a highlight of our vacation in India! Every dimension of our stay was superior from the safaris to the delicious food, welcoming staff, and beautiful accommodations. We enjoyed a stellar level of hospitality and expert guidance from Sadhvi that enabled us to see a tigress stalking deer, leopards, a flying squirrel, and many other iconic animals amidst the beautiful scenery of the national park. Evening gatherings before dinner each night with other guests were also most enjoyable. And the delicious cake that the staff gave me for my birthday was most appreciated. We recommend this lodge enthusiastically and with no reservations!

Our trip here was fabulous in every way. The facilities are comfortable and attractive and beautifully kept. The food was home cooked and mostly home grown and delicious. Our safari guide Alwyn was first class, passionate about wildlife, knowledgeable and interesting and we saw a tiger! The early starts which don't come naturally to me were well worth it. We did three amazing safaris. On top of all this - all the staff were so attentive to our every need, polite, helpful and kind. Perfect few days.

This was the 2nd lodge of our trip to Central India and we were made to feel so very welcome. |All the staff were incredibly helpful and our room was beautiful, with a balcony that was very welcome for an afternoon rest !|Blankets and hot water bottles were provided for the early morning game drive and a delicious breakfast was also provided .|The evenings were very relaxed and varied. You could join fellow guests for drinks if you wanted to and dinner was served in a variety of settings, barbecue, roof top dining and an evening in the communal area. |The food was exceptional, especially on our last night when one guest was celebrating his birthday, they even made him a cake!||I would not hesitate to recommend this lodge, worth its 5 star rating.

Very comfortable lodge with exceptional service and great food. Perfect location to base a trip to Bandhavghar. You'll never meet such a friendly staff and be so well taken care of. The location, just outside the main gate, couldn't be better.

Stayed at the lodge for 04 nights in March'25. It's a perfect lodge located right at Tala, and the team there make the place. All members of staff are kind and are genuinely hospitable persons from the local area. Few who aren't have spent considerable time here and are part of the landscape. Food is delicious and carefully prepared. Rooms are great with lots of natural light. Would recommend in a heartbeat, if you're a nature lover.

The quality of the lodging, food and service were all outstanding. Rarely does one experience such authenticity and genuine hospitality in the overall experience. Every meal was outstanding including the packed lunches during our two all-day safaris.
