Neemrana's - Deo Bagh

Usually a hotel is a place to shower and sleep, maybe to eat. Many hotels might try to market themselves as something more, but they are not. This hotel, on the other hand, really is something special. Beyond a place to sleep it is part of the experience. It is an historical Mughal sarai, tastefully updated, so you are staying in a very comfortable and well appointed room that dates back a few centuries. The gardens in front of the rooms are immaculate, while other parts of the gardens are rather wild. You will see parrots and you will see peacocks. If you are lucky, they will put on a display for you. If you are luckier, you will see Indian hornbills (we were lucky on both counts). The family that owns the property (Neemrana is just the operator) maintains some small temples in the grounds. We were (again) lucky to be invited in by the owner to join a ceremony. I don't know another hotel where that happens. By the way, the restaurant is very good, and high tea on the lawn (complimentary) is a delight. As so often in India, the area outside the front gate is quite different. Those not used to India might be put off, but it is quite normal. It is not too hard to get an Auto at the gate; alternatively, the very helpful reception staff are happy to arrange transport.

This is a beautiful snd characterful hotel set in spacious grounds. Our room was generous in size and comfortably set up. The staff were very attentive. We enjoyed a tour of the property on our first afternoon. High tea, served daily on the lawns was a pleasurable experience. The food served at the hotel was a real highlight. Every effort was made to look after us including assistance with special diets. We highly recommend this hotel.

The property is a heritage one but with all modern amenities. It is at one end of Gwalior and most of the places of visit are within 5 - 10 km radius. It was a pleasant stay with good food and ambience. They have huge lush green gardens, with peacocks and birds around, old temples inside the property. Rooms were clean and services provided were good. I recommend this place as a preferred place of stay in Gwalior.

An oasis in a dusty and chaotic city. This walled garden is not just a hotel to spend the night. There is great birdlife with beautiful peacocks as the big stars and there are beautiful family temples. The room are really stylish and we liked the on site restaurant too. Highly recommended!

The 17th century old property is a magnificent and very well maintained under the Neemrana chain. The antique look is very well maintained with open space and courtyard, filled with around 30 types of birds. The service quality is also very remarkable. Definitely would recommend this place to anyone planning to visit gwalior, a different place from your usual hotels.

Elegant and well appointed property in serene gardens with peacocks & mongooses roaming around. Chapeau to the incredibly gracious and accommodating staff. Especially the dinner staff and property management The Food was delicious & well priced. Amazing breakfast buffet and delightful high on the lawn included in the room charge
