This is apparently the best Mandu has, and that doesn't say much. Resort felt desolate, and the rooms were very poor. A/c worked from time to time, but at least there was a TV. The food was actually pretty good (we ate vegetarian). Mandu is a fantastic sight - one of the best in India - and so it is... More

Very pleasantly surprised by Malwa Resort, run by the Tourist Dept MP. Nice open surroundings and clean, pleasant staff, good food, where they will cook anything you want and overall a refreshing experience.

The resort is centrally located, just 3-4 kms from all attractions. The rooms are a bit small but functional. The bed can be better, the loo was clean. Food though strictly standard was good and tasty. There is lot of greenery around. There is adequate space for kids to play. The services is good.

What hospitality, what character! Made a booking with an MP-Tourism run resort with slight apprehension, worrying about the overall quality of the place. Two nights at the resort, and that apprehension turned out to be unfounded! Had booked an air-con tent and reached around 9pm after a gruelling 8 hour drive to a friendly welcome; and was immediately guided to... More

I'll start with the bad news. Ready? It's a dump. A dump 3 miles outta Mandu and you won't like the walk, cause there's nothing to see on the way. Have you tried the other MPTDC hotel, 'Retreat'? Read my review of that, cut and paste it here if you like. What really kills this hotel for me is the... More

We had booked to stay in one of the 'cottages' but found the decor rather depressing [!] so upgraded to a tent. Very nice, with a small dressing room and an en suite. It overlooked the almost dried up lake and there were loads of flying 'nasties' most of which I couldn't put a name to. The cooking was fine,... More

Good points first : -The attendants/service is good, humble people, -The overall resort spread and area is very peaceful (lake facing, serene atmosphere)...with close proximity to the heritage sites. - Cottages are spread widely, and ensures your privacy. - Food is quite nice. (Try the Khichadi Kadhi) Some important negatives: - The electricity goes off every 30 min.....and 100 times... More

The food at the restaurant is very good and the staff is courteous and friendly. We had a very relaxing time at the resort! Recommend it... More
