NIPUN

Travelled with group
Disliked: Amenities
The hotel was quite unorganized and unhygienic to certain degree inside the room. The carpet was dusty and the tables were very unclean. The breakfast was horrible to say the least and nothing at the resort makes you feel welcome or premium. There is bad view of just the waterside park with loud noises. It is ok if you have kids and want that view but for singles or couples with no kids, it was quite a chaotic energy. Overall staff has been rather unpleasant and indifferent. A simple ask from housekeeping could need minimum 3 calls before you get some kind of response. Elephant restaurant is actually VERY GOOD but the level 1 restaurant is QUITE HORRIBLE. Overall, if you don’t have kids and looking for a nature or party vibe, this may not be the right place.
