Heritage Resort Hampi

Good

The service was impeccable throughout (a special mention for Captain). The food was delicious and the accommodation was an oasis of calm. A great base from which to explore Hampi. Highly recommended.

The main reason we stayed at the resort was that we visited Hampi in April and wanted a swimming pool to use for a couple of hours in the afternoon between touring the temples. From that perspective, the swimming pool is very nice and not crowded, set in a beautiful garden filled with exotic fruit trees. The water in the pool is also at a great temperature! The rooms are very spacious, and the bed was very comfortable. The chef was amazing and did everything he could to ensure that the buffet menu was served, regardless of the gas shortages at the hotel due to the Iran conflict. He also offered to make pasta for our daughter which was not on the menu. The best part of the visit was having Manju (the tuk tuk driver) for 3 days showing us and touring the temples- he was recommended by the hotel and he was the best driver we ever had during our 3 week visit in India! The manager and reception staff are very nice.

The hotel is very overpriced but if you want a "nicer" resort with a swimming pool this is the only affordable option in the area. Rooms are a dated, especially the bathroom which needs renovation asap. Also, there are not enough plugs in the room, there is nowhere to put your toothbrush in the bathroom. The staff are friendly but training is needed as it seems there is a general issue of lack of co-ordination when you are asking for things and they are missing basic things eg. you are ordering drinks at the pool but no glasses are provided.

Manager is excellent. Mr Chandrashekhar , naturalist is the best and your tru asset. Support him with very good bridge camera.

Price is too High for the ambience. I don't feel its value money. I rate it 4 out of ten. Cleanliness yes. Maintained well
