Vijayshree Resort And Heritage Village

The newly built rooms are very good, but the room service is pathetic. We got our dinner to the room in 1.5 hrs after calling multiple times. We read similar reviews previously as well. Also, the restaurant has 2 parts, the older one is not maintained. The table cloths and chairs were dirty which felt unhygienic. The buffet options were also very limited.

It was a pleasant place over all but was slightly dated and needed to be updated but was clean and the staff were friendly and attentive. I used the massage facilities and must say it was excellent.

Overall good property but a bit expensive

The property is good , maintenance is bad

Beautiful resort, with polite and friendly service from all staff. Really hospitable. The rooms are clean and the pillows super comfortable. The bathroom is the weak point. Missing lights, stained WC and corners, the floor never dries up the entire stay. Vegetarian food only, of course being Satvik, though with a very limited choice, was fabulous. The wait for the transfer to parking area can get long, sometimes.

Sehr schöne große grüne Anlage. Das Frühstück ist sehr auf den indischen Geschmack ausgerichtet.. Das Badezimmer war etwas schlicht.. Leider musste das Dinner in dem tiefgekühlten Restaurant eingenommen weren - dabei waren draußen herrliche Temperaturen.

I was booked for a smoking room and when I checked in they told me entire resort is non smoking, no bar, and totally vegetarian

Resort is well maintained. Staff are courteous and helpful. Cultural activities in the evening was also fine.

My Journey was to see the amazing sites of Hampi. Would recommend this hotel to all.

Viiasyshree hotel is a beautiful park hotel with cottages all over the place. The distances to Hampi is about 8 km. Breakfast is very good which a nice choice of delicious food, dinner is a la card and of good quality. I have no photo's.

We loved the spacious grounds and relaxing swimming pool, excellent pure vegetarian food and friendly staff.

The good thing about the resort is that it has good open space, a pool etc. This is quite pleasing. However, when it comes to the core aspect, i.e. the room, the condition of the bed is very poor, very hard bed, looks like it is not replaced since the launch. Also, the bathroom has been maintained very poorly; the shower unit was broken, main shower not working, full of salt deposits due to bore well water; only the handshower was working and we complained and nothing happened, we had to live with it for 3 days. The bigger problem is that there was water logging in the bathroom, the water was not properly flowing out into the drain hole as a result there was a pool of water once you take bath. We mentioned this several times to housekeeping but they passed the blame to tiles not put correctly this that and all.. Nothing was done. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone, as if you think your kid can enjoy the rajasthani village everyday once you are done with Hampi visit, it can be done by paying an additional amount inclusive of dinner here. Better to stay in a better hotel where there is a bit more professional touch than amateur staff here.

Reading to several views..honestly I was doubtful about the stay because there were lot of negative feedbacks. When I stayed there it was a more than wonderful experience. The only drawback is the time for dinner is too early for late night food lovers and for non-veg lovers there is no food in the resort. You can get it from outside though

The receptionist stated that I did not have a reservation as he had no idea about first & last names, & without looking at my passport stated & we had to spend 15 minutes when he allowed me to use his computer to show the reservation that he recognized with my first name. The hotel is a nice family resort for Indian guests but no alcohol. Wi-fi at extra charges & away from the city are negatives. On the plus side, a lot of grounds to walk, swimming pool & good breakfast. There are lots of fun activities for little children.

It's a good stay overall. This is little far from Hampi ruins. Food was average and can be improved.

The experience was good, the location wise this hotel is excellent even the property also very well maintained. the only thing where they need to improve is service and breakfast quality & arrangement.

Tour Operator view, Wonder India Holidays. From the outside hotel looks very good and excellent setting. However the maintenance in the room was bad. Fridge not working, light bulbs missing in all rooms, shower could not be turned on.TV programmes basic. The hotel needs major maintenance work. This hotel can be a 3 star plus hotel if properly maintained. The restaurant was vegetarian, breakfast too and no alcohol, need to mention on web site. Choki Dham the village show with camel and horse rides and folk dancing at the hotel in the evening was excellent. The rate quoted was higher for this class of hotel. However the happy staff service was excellent.

Room had a couple of lizards and made strange noises during the nights. Found it difficult to sleep. Limited food choices. Great entertainment options in the campus

Enjoyable and relaxing. Musicians from Rajasthan, performing folk music during lunch was very enjoyable. There was an evening cultural program during dinner. We had some previous engagement so we could not attend to it but from the preparations we saw we believe it must have been great.

Stay was pleasant, Resort is close to Hampi ....

Spent two nights and three days in third week November 2015. Very friendly staff who go out of the way to make your stay pleasant and comfortable. Well maintained, spacious rooms. Well maintained property on the Hospet-Hampi Road. Good buffet breakfast and dinner spread on all the days we were there. It may be noted that the resort serves only vegetarian food and liquor is off limits! Overall, excellent value for money,recommended and will stay there again.

Bed bugs on the bed!! Bedspreads unclean. Hot water delivered through buckets, 40 minutes after it was asked for. Have to ask for resort car to visit the restaurant. Staff speaks only Marwari and Hindi, nothing else!!

nice hotel for one night. close to the entrance of Hampi. traditional dinner was a nice experience. If you are lucky they run some typical indian shows such as dance, cooking, puppet theatre etc. continental breakfast was ok, a bit unusual for western people.

During the night, rats ate my toileteries in the bathroom. When I discovered they'd eaten my toothbrush, toothpaste, soap and who knows what else, I asked to be moved, but the hotel refused! There were rat droppings all over the floor, yet they said there was no sign of rats and since it was a property in large, open grounds, it was all I could expect. I took everything of mine out of the bathroom for teh 2nd night, but rats still ate the hotel soap. I got no refund or apology of any kind. The hotel sits in the middle of a rotting, disgusting rubbish dump, where dead dogs lie festering and pigs are living amongst the trash. No wonder they have rats!

Hotel just below average - much hyped in South - but majority of lights were non functional. Dark rooms, bathrooms unclean - hot water problems in rooms- poor breakfast spreads and non functional room keys.

A great resort, all the more so for the price on offer. The ambience, lawns, Rajasthan theme are worth the money. The staff were courteous, however needed reminder to send a complimentary bottle of bottled water for instance, which doesn't do justice for the overall calibre on offer. The restaurant was good, clean. The place was good for a visit to Hampi. I would recommend the Heritage Villa for the price of Rs1500, as booked online, inspite of the shortcomings. However, I have to add that the Room 118 I stayed in, had half the electricity points defective (including the bathroom bulb) right from the time of booking. The remainder sustained a short circuit during my stay when an electric lawn mover was in operation in vicinity. Hope the maintenance staff invest in maintaining the electricity connections prior to handing over the rooms to guests.

It was a great experience in this resort and everyone in my family felt comfortable. Except taste of coffee other spreads in breakfast was good.

Schmutzige Bettwäsche, Unterbetten angeschmutzt, quietschende Obermatratzen, jede einzelne Springfeder fühlbar.Rauchmelder entfernt, Spiegel hängt schief, Jalousie hängt schief, abgeplatzter Lack an der Badtür, Dusche ziemlich angegammelt, Kein Wasserkocher, kein Föhn. Personal sehr zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit. Fehlinformation von Mitarbeitern wird von der Hotelleitung nicht kulant reguliert. 2 Sterne eindeutig zu viel!

We stayed here as we couldn't get anywhere in Hampi. It was still very close to the ruins of Hampi, we paid 200 rupees each way in a tuk tuk and only took 5 mins. The rooms were very clean, very spacious and very comfortable and very quiet this was a highlight. Sadly there was no in room wifi The staff were friendly, the breakfast could use some improving and run for longer hours we were woken up twice saying breakfast was about to close at 0900 when we were trying to sleep in. The grounds were spectacular and the food was very good and cheap, we would have liked to use the massage place but the prices were more then what we would pay in Sydney!!! Only negative is the wifi and the, repetitive music in the lobby! Very nice staff and worth staying at!

Everything about this hotel was great! The ambiance, the staff, the rooms and breakfast... This is an excellent place for families (with kids) and couples. During my 2 night stay, I did notice every kid pulling their parents to the large pool. They have ample space to play in the grass. One can capture some good photographs too as the landscaping has been done well. The only let down for me was the no non-veg part. We ended up going to KSTDC Mayura Bhuvaneshwari which is about 5 kms to have some non-veg dose of drinks.

Staff was very good. Good Food. Our room(s) did not have hot water and we had to get buckets. No internet in the room.

It was the best place to stay in Hampi & I will revisit once again as 2 days are not sufficient to see Hampi

The bathroom and the bed can use and upgrade. The grounds are beautiful and the service is good.

Staff was attentive, polite, and extremely accommodating. Service was prompt and consistent. Food was delicious with a wide variety, though the traditional meals made for a unique experience. We paid for the use of the hotel car, which was inexpensive and essential in making the most out of sightseeing in extremely warm temperatures.

the location's greatest asset is without doubt the well looked after and tremendously large garden area, which makes you immediately feel at peace. The cottages are nicely and inobtrusively nestled in the park environment and atmospherewise it is really wonderful. The facilities though could be improved, the outdoor breakfast on the terrace is great, however the buffet and presentation lack a little charme. Actually, on our last day, we got truly spoiled, maybe we stayed longer than the other guests and so they dedicated themselves to us which was beyond expectations. The dining area could need some improvement ti render it a bit warmer and more welcoming, staff could act a bit quicker and the cuisine's preparation could use a more hearfelt touch. All in all a good time, lovely surroundings - and just some little details to make it perfect!

This resort is outside of the crowded town of Hospet, en route to Hampi, and thus well-situated for exploring the ruins at Hampi of the Vijayanagar empire, the largest in South India. My room was air-conditioned, very comfortable and spacious, with a sitting area. The bathroom facilities were modern, including continuous running hot water. The hotel grounds were well manicured. I enjoyed all the five (vegetarian) meals I had there - featuring south indian, chinese, and punjabi cuisine as well as traditional rajasthani thali. The staff were courteous and helpful. They also offer a variety entertainment show every evening, which I did not see. My overall impression was very positive - I had not expected as comfortable a place in such a remote part of India.

Very friendly staff that was always willing to help. Food too was great. The hotel serves only vegetarian food as do most restaurants in Hampi. A few areas for the management to pay attention to. Attend to the leaks in the bathroom. There are too many switches in the room with no signs. Very confusing.

The room were spacious and staff couteous. Breakfast (vegetarian, toast and Indian fare) was excellent. The landscaping with huge lawns and trees with the 'cottages' is elaborate and impressive. The Rajasthani style dinner was good but could have been priced a little less. A wished- for service would be guided tours of the historical Hampi starting at the Resort.

I visited Hampi for several days and had initially planned on staying in Hampi. I couldn't find anything on-line other that hostel-like accommodations which I can't do. So, as search area expanded I found the Vijayshree Resort about halfway between Hospet and Hampi. Turned out to be great for me as it was my sanctuary after long, hot days exploring Hampi. I had read on-line that the Hospet-Hampi bus stopped there, but I never attempted to use the bus. I got around via auto-rickshaw and a motorcycle I rented in Hampi.

We stayed in a villa for 3 nights. Had a good experience overall. Resort is very nicely maintained, lots of greenery, flowers, landscaping. Lot of space for kids to run around. Good entertainment arranged by them in the evening including puppet show, magic show, horse/camel riding, folk dance, rope walking etc. Staff is extremely courteous and prompt in service. Swimming pool area is very nicely maintained. Few areas of improvement though. Bathrooms were kind of old and not so clean. We had to ask them to clean the tiles and mat floor. AC remote was not working. Food is quite spicy and oily. Our kids couldnt even take a bite. Not much variety in breakfast and lunch buffets. Its purely vegetarian and no alcohol, so not a great place if you want to enjoy food and drinks. No good place nearby either, so you have to go to Hospet , about 5-6 kms by very bad roads if you want to have a good meal.

The rooms did not have memory foam beds as was written on the web site. The pool had slimed walls. rooms smelled of moth balls which are in the bathroom. A rodent was in our room. Food was good in the restaurant/to order. Disappointing stay.

The resort is well maintained and has nice greenery. Well maintained garden, rooms, restaurant, pool etc. Very friendly staff. had a very relaxing and cozy stay at the resort, had a good time visiting the theme village in the evening. Rajasthani food was awesome. had little trouble with hot water in the next morning, but this doesn't reduce our liking towards the resort. Spa service was average for the price, pool very well maintained and big.

We were there for 3 days in the third week of June and had a very pleasant stay. Well maintained resort, hospitable service staff, that were eager to help. We were the only guests in the resort the week that we stayed there...On Day-2 the water motor pump stopped working and we had a quite an experience in calling the service desk to get it fixed. They did fix it in a couple of hours and did all they could to compensate for this not so positive experience. Food was OK.

Good location, food is not good.

Check in was smooth and efficient. We were allotted room immediately even though we had checked in @8am. (Though the reason may be the resort had total occupancy of only 3 including us). The property is quite big & it is a well maintained resort with friendly & efficient staff. Room interiors are ok and the room doesn't give u the feel of a 4 or 5 star property. Furniture looks old and is of average quality. Breakfast is good. Lunch/dinner average taste. It is a Pure vegetarian and smoke free property which is a big plus for people like me. Room rates of @7-8K per night (incl. of breakfast) seem to be very heavy as compared to other 3-4 star property options available in Hospet. If u r travelling with children, are pure veg. & need smoke free property then this is the right choice. Else, u can get better value for money options in Hospet.

Best place to stay in hampi. Experience of stay was out of the world. If I would have not stayed here I am sure my hampi trip would not have been that big a fun...

Nice ambiance, Good Service, Clean, excellent service. I will recommend and will continue to stay.

It was a nice place to stay. Beautiful landscaping and surrounding. Food was nice too. Little bit expensive.

Quiet place in a green garden. Away from the noise of hospet and near to the sights of Hampi. Very friendly and helpfull staff. Very good restaurant. A good choice for visiting the area of Hampi, Vijayanagar.

Extremely wonderful service. Rooms were excellent. Quality of food was satisfactory. Strongly recommend staying in this resort if you visit Hampi. Should definitely keep a day extra at hand to enjoy the luxuries of this place. Some negatives -- this place does not have a bar
