Bandipur Safari Lodge by Jungle Lodges

We travel-led with our kid and stayed at Bandipur safari lodge for a day (1 night. We didn't expect much as it was just a one-night halt and most of the time would go in safari but we were pleasantly surprised by the way all arrangements were made. An extra bed, blanket, towel for a kid, all was kept ready in our cottage when we checked in. The staff functions very meticulously and in a dedicated manner. Everything is well organized and timely. Food is homely, tasty, healthy and spread is decent too. Two safaris (one in the morning and one in the evening) are included in the package. Rooms are basic but neat n clean. There were two lovely sit-outs one in the front door and the other at the backdoor. We were stationed at the elephant cottage. Overall from stay to safari to food, everything was a pleasant experience. Would like to appreciate the dedication and courtesy of the staff. They always served us with a smile ) would suggest if you travel with kids or elders then take rooms near gol ghar which is their dinning area.

I stayed in bandipur jlr for one night with my childhood female friend and the first thing that i can vouch for this stay is it’s safety! we were two female travellers, so the amount of concern and hospitality we received was unparalleled! the staff made sure we felt comfortable and the food was delicious with quite a number of options including both veg and non-veg. Our safaris were excellent and in the first safari we spotted multiple animals like the indian gaur, sambar, elephant, deer's and many different types of birds. In the next safari, we finally spotted the leopard which sealed the deal for us. Our package included breakfast, lunch, tea and snacks and dinner along with two safaris and we must say that we felt it’s a home away from home. We look forward to coming back once again to spend some more nights in this amazing property!

Overall the experience is good. We went there while coming back from our Ooty trip to Bangalore. It is right on the road so reachability is not a problem at all. The Rooms are clean and gives a good feel to stay with a lot of trees and nature around. Food is great and has a homely touch and the staff is extremely courteous. The KA government is doing a fantastic job on jungle lodges. The Jungle Safari is also good. We have spotted deer, wild elephants, Mongoose, Bison and leopard on our evening safari. Morning Safari was breath taking with Panoramic views of the Nilgiri biosphere. We could not spot Tiger but other teams could see them. Its all luck! The only downside is its overcharged. But overall I recommend going there for one day stay.

For all wildlife enthusiasts and otherwise, if you're travel-ling to bandipur - one of the first set of national parks / reserves to be brought under the project tiger programme. Jungle lodges and resorts' bandipur safari lodge is conveniently located on the highway that cuts across the reserve forest area in karnataka. The accommodation and dining facilities are good, food quality is very good. The dining hall - gol ghar is the place where you get to meet up with fellow boarders during meal time. Both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options are part of their buffet meals. The staff at the property are very courteous and helpful. The safari starts right at the gate and hence is very convenient.

The rooms were pretty similar to the pictures. Basic but comfortable and very clean. Hygiene was maintained well. Food was very good (i tried only the vegetarian options. Our package included all three meals, evening snacks and tea/coffee. Food was ready on time and had a lot of healthy options as well. The highlight was the safari though. Our package included 2 safaris and both were very well planned. The guide who came with us took a lot of efforts to spot a tiger and gave us a lot of insights about the forest, animals etc. Very friendly staff, hassle free safari experience, good food and hygienic rooms. Overall a very good experience

This was our first stay with jungle lodges and I was looking forward to it for a long time. The heavy rains put a (literal) damper on the Safari and bonfire, but the overall experience was still very positive. Great food and service. And the safari access is the best I have ever seen. On the downside, the rooms need to be updated, for the asking price. Also on the Safari, we had some really poorly behaved parents and children. Please give an option for people who don't want to be stuck with children to move to a separate Jeep. I really haven't come to the forests to listen to someone's poorly mannered brat.

We really enjoyed our stay at the resort. Rooms were spacious with a private seating space amidst nature and a hammock. Though the linens and the towels in the rooms need a revamp. They have air coolers in the room but AC would be better in the summer. Food was homely and really delicious. Above all it was the hospitality of the Bandipur Safari Lodge by Jungle Lodges staff which made our stay great. Good service at the buffet and even offered to prepare which is for our kid. We got two jeff Safari trips which started right from the comfort of our Bandipur Safari Lodge by Jungle Lodges.

The place is perfect. The location, the staff (well trained, kind and ever helpful, the safari arrangents are fantastic. The rooms are fabulous ( cottages are very spacious with a lot of space and a great sit out and a veranda. The food is all inclusive and is really very good. The food is simple and tasty. We went there for our anniversary. We had a fantastic set up for dinner by our room amazingly arranged and the cake was on the house. Overall a great experince and really kind people.

I really liked how the place was in the middle of nature, food was simple and maharaja rooms were big

First stay at a jlr property and it was the absolute best. The rooms are spacious and tastefully designed with a beautiful sitout, and the property has a lot of greenery with benches and walking paths. The safaris were nicely done with good and knowledgeable drivers. The food was delicious and all meals were served on a timely basis. The service was excellent and the staff is very helpful.

All around good food, safari & stay

Safe, friendly staff, bedsheet clean, the pleasant smell in the room, green environment, great food, toilets need to upgrade. Safari awesome, comfortable for solo and kids.

Overall excellent stay and behaviour was very nice

Serene and clean ambience, courteous staff, excellent hospitality and well curated food options round the clock

Everything including safari rides , villa in resort , ambience, bonfire - was wow 😍

Very decent place to stay. Make a pleasure trip to enjoy the beauty of the Jungle. Safari was good but we were not so lucky to spot the wilderness. Overall it was a great experience.

Amazing property, wonderfully hospitality and humble staff. Food is really good and rooms are spacious and clean. Over all it’s a wonderful experience with wildlife safari and stay

If you would like to have a proper jungle beat with good accommodation jungle resort is the place to go to. The staff is polite, courteous and helpful. The quality of food is good and variety adequate. The best part is the safari and the staff makes sure that they won’t return without a sighting. Overall a safe and well maintained place to visit.

The staff were courteous. Food was good (all 3 meals. However evening snacks needs little improvement. Safari experience was great, spotted few animals and birds except tiger/ leopard. The driver did his best during both rounds of safari, however no luck due to rains. Temple visit was too good, awesome view and prasadam. Must visit.

Recommended place to stay at bandipur. 2 times safari made our day
