“Riverside rooms offer direct access to the Betwa River, and I noted the grounds are thoughtfully designed to bring nature close to every room. The staff is well-regarded, and it's a particular boon for pet owners; clearly, this location values a relaxed, natural experience above all. A solid choice for those prioritizing natural beauty and a pet-friendly environment.”
