Hotel berhampiran Malegitti Shivalaya Fort and Temple, Bagalkot

We stayed at Rajsangam Hotel for 2 days. This was our very first time in Badami. The rooms in picture looks very old, but the rooms are well maintained and good for stay. The owner is very good guy and helpful. I went with my 2 year child and he needed hot water for his formula milk. In room, there are no electric kettle, but at hotel reception, owner has the kettle and he helped to boil the water for two days. The good thing about the property is that there is an hotel just adjacent to it which is the best in that locality. So if you are with family, you don't need to go far away for lunch or dinner as there are very limited options. The breakfast is also good and the hotel has quite affordable prices. The locations are also nearby. We hired an auto rikshaw (they are bigger than rikshaw actually..usually called as ”tamtam”). So we also hired a tamtam which was also good and the driver was also very polite. On first day we went to local places including -Bhuthnatha Temple, Badami Museum, and Caves which is just at same location. Driver drops you and he waits outside. You can take your time as much you want. For first day he charged us hardly 500 Rs. On second day, we had breakfast at the hotel and started our trip at 9 O 'Clock. First, we went to Mahakoteshwar Temple. After that we went to Pattadkal and had lunch there. There is authentic food at ”Lingayath Khanavali” where you will love the simple food which is also very affordable at 120/- Rs per thali. Pattadkal is 17 Km from the hotel. Then we went to Aihole which is 12 Km from Pattadkal. Having seen everything on this day, we came back to room. Autowala charged us 1200 Ra. for this trip as it was outskirts and takes almost one day. But it is still worth. Next day, he also dropped us at railway station. Overall, we had good experience in Badami.

The hotel is run down. The staff make it up with their service and the food is good. The GM is very helpful. He had just joined them.

i would not rate it extraordinary but then goubg to Badami , the bucolic heartland of Kannadas, it's advisable to pare one's expectations and likewise we did the same. The stay in Non-AC room is nothing yo brag about and a mistake on our part while booking but then in middling February , it was still tolerable although avoidable. The state government owned hotel has a location advantage being slightly distant from muddle and yet a mere mile from famed Badami caves. The stay factor having been reconciled, the fare in the in-house restaurant is nothing to flaunt about and chef would do well to undergo a culinary crash course. Overall would recommended but be diligent while booking lest unknowingly you too might end up with a non-AC room and my two bit of advice - the entire cucuit of Badami, Paddakal & Aihole takes not more than six hours overall plus commuting time so one night of halt is sufficient.

We booked our stay at sterling banashree and the property was quite enchanting. The way to the resort is through some farms and it isn't great but once inside the resort, you are greeted by friendly staff and the pleasant sound of many birds. Location wise it is just 6 kms from badami cave temple and it is easy to find. We were quite surprised by the food. We had veg gobi adraki and mix veg curries ***** with phulka and chapatis, they were delicious. Next day we had the choice to order from a wide variety of dishes for breakfast, we had idly, uthapam, dosa and poori ***** with watermelon juice. Idly and uthapam were outstanding. Amenities wise there is a large pool, lots of board games and badminton. The room was quite spacious and the washroom hygiene was spot on. It felt like we were in a 4 star hotel. I would definitely recommend this resort as it has a comfortable room, beautiful landscapes, great food and quite convenient to visit nearby stunning temples.

Location and food was good.. However room related services were not upto the mark.. I stayed for 3 nights and complained about AC not working on the first day itself.. but was not rectified till i chked out . same thing with mirror light as well as water leakage in the bathroom.. nothing was done despite daily reminder.. Although b/f time is from 7;30 am, it starts only at 8:00.. so can’t plan morning precisely.. Staff was courteous

I stayed with family for one night at kyriad, ilkal. Beautiful place, peaceful, away from crowds. Hotel is spacious, clean. Staff very good. Food fantastic. Service great. Would like to stay here if travel-ling in that part of karnataka.
