Ranthambore Bagh Villa — Hotel in Rajasthan

Skeletal staff with no clue. The reception guy gives you his version of facts, the guy on the phone gives you another version, the fellow manning the kitchen as cook cum manager cum maitre 'd cum chief red herring has his own take on things. Room service is theoretical. Housekeeping is country hick standards with one guy in an age old uniform holding the 'fort'. In our room, the intercom was broken. No one came to fix it leaving us at the mercy of non-existent service. Unwashed single glass in the room, which took two hours and many phone calls on mobile phones to replace. When I asked room service to send me a pot with four cups of tea in it. They sent four small pots and four sets of cups and saucers. After arriving at the room, the fellow promptly started pouring all four pot contents into the cups as he wanted to take the pots away. The food during lunch after check in tasted as if the dish washer had cooked it. Rice starch water in the lentils soup, carrots and an overdose of red chillies in the mix vegetable curry with no taste of other spices and herbs. The rotis were Rajasthani sogras throwing their own weight around mimicking UFOs baked in fire and cheap vegetable oil. That was lunch. However, the dinner buffet was very well cooked. The cholay, the panneer, the daal, the chicken, the plain rice were very well cooked. Very satisfying dinner. The room was reasonably comfortable. The bathroom was large, uncluttered and clean. The television remained unworkable with no one to guide us on it. An Android TV with no internet connectivity. One server who worked there confided that there was no data connectivity so the TV wasn't going to work. Air conditioning in our room was good. No shaving kits. No dental kits. Overused towels as smooth as sandpaper. The hotel is in the middle of a junk yard. Therefore, it has no view. The lawns have a thick bed of grass which we trod barefeet on and felt good. The raised pool with broken flagstones and slime does not change its water in 10 days. The filtering is questionable. The rooms have padlocks. The bathroom exhaust was set in the wrong direction, resulting in throwing back the foul air instead of throwing it out. The approach road is the foulest rough drive that you can experience. The morning breakfast was fresh idlis, poha with bhujia dumped over the poha, lots of butter, shallow fried bread, lots of jam, water in flimsy plastic cups, coffee with sugar in smallest paper cups, good quality tea without sugar and cornflakes. No eggs, no parathas. Everything was being handled with bare hands. No gloves. No tongs. The coconut chutney during breakfast was out of this world. The best I have ever had. The sambhar was all right. Beverages in room service are served in thimble sized cups. The air is very clean; the bathing water and the drinking water were excellent. Finally, the hotel does not have any parking space inside the hotel. After posting this review an employee called and requested me to...

Hotel rooms are average, huge bathrooms but always has issue with hot water (it may turn off in middle of the bath), no doormats, in our room we had a tv, remote & all but didn't have the set top box (after asking for 2 days, its not installed). Most staff are supportive & kind but few are exceptions. Food is excellent in taste & chef is supportive on making dishes. Make sure to have your commitment on paper as we have faced some issues & haven't got some what was committed. We feeled like the hotel was recently renamed & renovated but not up to the mark. The main thing is the way to hotel, its total slum, full of overflowing drainage water & a team of pigs moving around the main gate & parking area. You will get lot better options compared to this in same locality. My suggestion is to avoid this if possible. The given 2 starts are only for the supportive staff & the food. Need more improvement on management &...
