Balaram Palace Resort, once the hunting retreat of the Lohani Nawab of Palanpur, is now a Heritage Classic hotel. It was built between 1922-1936 by the 29th ruler of Palanpur, His Highness Zubd-ul-Mulk Dewan Mahakhan Nawab Sir Taley Muhammad Khan Lohani. It is a graceful manifestation of neo-classical and baroque architectural style. Situated amidst the Aravallis in the 542 sq. kms of Balaram Ambaji Reserve Forest at the tip of North Gujarat it borders Rajasthan. The palace is set in 13 acres of terraced upland rising from a hilly stream and surrounded by lush green gardens and designed flower beds. The palace was visited by several dignitaries during the British Raj, including Lord Mountbatten.Show More

Well ***icured lawns, tastefully appointed rooms and an attentive guest services staff, all go into making you feel like the old nawab of Palalanpur. The property is a well maintained and carefully restored heritage property that dates back to 1922. Nestled in the midst of a lush green forest with the Aravalli mountain range in the background, a river meanders around the property during the wet season. I was fortunate to have witnessed a beautiful sight of fish jumping in the waters. A quiet hamlet and a few temples are located close by. The sunrise from the lawns and the sunsets are just glorious. A great place to spot birds. In all it is a wonderful retreat to decompress from the hustle bustle of the city.

STAFF IS too good, at reception and at restaurant and over all.

The name, Balaram Palace Resort, is deceiving. It was a palace of a small princely state but to a customer, it is big but does not feel like a palace. It has a large ground but I am not aware of any activities like horseback riding or games, musical perfor***ces or activities etc. Then, why call it a palace or a resort? The staff is good. They help in ***y ways, e.g. taking an elderly person in an electric vehicle to the restaurant. The food in the restaurant was good but I would not call the restaurant palatial. The property is on the bank of a river. Thus, one can take a walk to the river. The rooms are cold at night. They placed heaters in the room. In our room, the heater was short-circuited and caught fire. They repaired it but this caused disturbed sleep. One of the most important functions of a hotel is good sleep on a comfortable bed in a warm quiet room and a good bath. If a guest cannot sleep, the hotel should consider it and discount the price or somehow make the person happy. The staff are very nice but were probably not authorized to evaluate how happy the customer is. Since I cannot compare this to other hotels in Palanpoor, I would still recommend this hotel and give it an average rating.

We arrived at this hotel at night, after a long bus journey and we loved the first impression, adorned with beautiful lights. But when we entered the reception, we were very disappointed because it seemed that we were entering a living room in a house, with plastic sofas, little lighting... and the rooms seemed very bad to me: The beds, very hard; the scratchy towels and a slightly disgusting color; the sheets worn out from so much washing and little cleaning. I was very shocked because the exteriors and gardens are perfect, then it's a matter of neglect. A pity, because it is a superb building. Of course, the wifi signal did not reach the room. The restaurant is completely vegan.

Don't be fooled, the hotel has nowhere to take it. Dirty verging on disgusting. The beds: "I **** on everything" the box spring is a plank and the mattress is like esparto grass and of course you can't sit on the armchairs to try to sleep for fear of catching scabies. Between the sheets a ***, I can't comment because when I realized I preferred to take off my glasses. What a disaster how can they *** have something like that open. Apparently breakfast as they are vegetarians also has "lame" and I'll tell you. Here you have me sitting in bed at 1 in the morning waiting for 6:30 to take a shower and get out of here "running away"
