Arindam's 6 days trip to Madhya Pradesh

Thank you Neha for making last moment changes. I had troubled her many times so thank you again for bearing me. I had booked hotels for Orchha and Bhopal and cab for sightseeing for in and around Orchha, Bhopal and Jabalpur. Everything was great except for the driver at Jabalpur. He is actually not a driver, I suppose, he is a real estate agent who came because his driver was on leave. So, he didnt have much knowledge about tourist places. Though he toured all the places mentioned in the itinerary. Dhuadhar falls, marble rocks and Narmada aarti at Gwarighat are some memories which me and my parents will cherish forever. We thank you for that. However, I felt last day at Jabalpur could have been planned better as the dam was not worth it. Prices I would say comparable to other online sites.

Motherannai's 14 days trip to Madhya Pradesh

Started our trip very enthusiastically. Initially we had problems with the driver since he was not sure of the routes.and our agent Mr. Alan changed the driver immediately and in pachmarhi also, we were not happy about the hotel and the next day he changed our hotels. Except for Indore(HotelJM grand), Orchha, pachmrhi( Payal hotel) were not great . Rest of them were good. Break fast we’re decent in most of the places. Since we were South Indians, we missed our food very badly. Otherwise, the agent was always there for any problems that we had. Maheshwar was very beautiful and boat ride in Narmadha at Omkareshwar and At Bhedaghat, Jabalpur was awesome! Khajuraho and Orcha were mesmerising. Kalbhairav Bhasmarathi at ujjain was a different vibe totally. Badhavgarh Tiger reserve safari in the morning was refreshing though we we weren’t able to spot tigers, Chithrakoot , Prayag and Varanasi gave us spiritual vibes. Totally that trip was Amazing and we travelled nearly 2200 kms by road for 14 days. Had a glimpse of fertile Madhyapradesh.

Arunabha's 10 days trip to Madhya Pradesh

Gwalior: Hotel Landmark A professional hotel that provided standard room and substantial breakfast, however the restaurant food quality is not good. Tourists generally prefer homely food. Also tired senior citizens would prefer to have dinner at the hotel. Tourists also prefer to have a window to look out of. Orchha: Hotel Nilayam Heritage - No heritage at all. New small irregular hotel with rooms on the ground floor and a sparcely provided dining hall for breakfast only on first floor. Packed Breakfast only Aloo paratha. Nothing else. Khajuraho: Hotel Isabel Palace - Good hotel. Food quality good although much delayed. Bandhavgarh: Tiger Trails Resort: Good professionally maintained Resort with excellent service. Amarkantak: Hotel The Residency - Totally unprofessional. Poor service. Rude front desk. Had to leave shoes outside before entering reception. Monkeys disturb the TV antenna therefore TV never in order. No lift with dining/breakfast on the 2nd floor. No view to the outside from groundfloor room. Room with bed view of toilet. Leaking commode shower. Stiff flush tap. Attendant barge into room without knocking. No buffet. Stingy with breakfast. Do not serve as per order even in presence of Hotel owner in spite of repeated request. Jabalpur: Hotel Rahul. Good hotel. Professional service. Good food. Bandhavgarh Tiger Trail Resort.

Rupal's 9 days trip to Madhya Pradesh

Overall experience was nice. Reg Hotel at Jabalpur we had already offered our opinion. Pl try to avoid that hotel for future guests. Other hotels were ok. We had opted for stay at Orchha. But it was without knowing abt place. U can offer stay at Zasi rather than at Orchha which is more convenient. Bedhaghat was superb.Duwadhar fall also very nice. Bandhavgarh tour was nice. We could see Zasi Fort. As Rani Laxmibai was from Maharashtra, it was a proud feeling for us to visit the place.
