Aranya Vilas, Ranthambhore

Staff was very helpful and meals were delicious. Our family totally enjoyed the stay and hospitality. Will certainly return next visit to the park

An oasis just 10mins from Ranthambore National Park, with spacious and very clean rooms, strong, adjustable A/C, and inviting well kept grounds that allow you to escape from the noise and hustle of India. Yes, it is two mins down a dirt road from the main drag -but that also means that you can't hear the unfortunate soundtrack of India -constant car horn honking. Since this is isolated, your meals will largely be here and that isn't a problem, as the food is exquisitely prepared and some of the best we had on our trip to India -not to mention reasonable. Breakfast was included in our rate and we had so much to eat that we didn't need lunch. This is a great spot to stay at for your safari as they are just 10mins from the entrance to Ranthambore Park and then you can return back to this spot, have a swim, or sit outside and read a book in their lovely gardens. Staff is very attentive and accommodating, even arranging a last minute private car for the 5hr drive to New Delhi at a price 20% lower than two other companies had quoted me. Very happy and you will be too if you stay here. Also, of note, because it isn't too clear on the booking details, but the 'family room' is essentially your own little house with two bedrooms (2 twins and one King) and a sitting area. Each with its own AC unit. Oh, and the hotel has strong WiFi with multiple different routers ensuring strong signal across the property.

We had a lovely stay at Aranya Vilas in Ranthambore as a family of three with a young child. It was a welcomed break from the hustle and bustle of the city, a green oasis quiet enough to let us switch off but also conveniently only at 10mins from the National Park entrance. We went on three drives and saw 8 tigers, so that was a fantastic experience too. From start to finish we were taken care of by attentive staff who went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect. The pool was an added plus, as well as the Fort visit organised by the hotel team. Would recommend staying here if visiting Ranthambore.

A very different experience than a traditional hotel. Would highly recommend Aranya Villas. You will have a great experience including excellent staff. great location, nice rooms, good food, etc.
