The fun of tiger safaris in India is not only animal and bird watching it is the stay that counts as well. Yes the safaris can be exciting but without a memorable stay experience the excitement will wash down the drain.
Tiger Reserve like Ranthambore is reputed to have the finest hotels and resorts in India. Situated in Sawai Madhopur a short distance from the park these resorts subscribe to various categories the prominent being budget, luxury and heritage. There may be some home stays as well but they are not very popular though the concept is growing. There are some resorts which offer accommodation in luxurious tents but the tariff is very high.
The hotel tarrif ranges from low to high to very high being close to New Delhi and Jaipur highend clientele prefers to stay in posh properties. The heritage resorts are the ones most popular with highend clientele in peak season they may be fully booked.
Done up like the maharajahs palaces the fabulous interiors, well furnished exquisitly done up rooms, and classic Rajasthani archtecture of yore are the hallmark of these properties. These characterstics sets heritage properties apart from the regular five star hotels in Ranthambhore.
In highend properties at tiger reserves the space and the surroundings make a major difference the generous spread and panoramic surroundings are simply exhilerating. This ambiance is next to impossible in the urban surroundings.
At Ranthambhore the backdrop of Aravalli hill ranges makes the settings extremely picturesque. The forests and the rivers add more splendour to the settings and create a sublime ambiance which accords serenity and peace. These aspects make a stay at a highend hotel in Ranthambore amazingly memorable.
