Completely bowled over by the Taj hospitality and the property. Superb location amidst the forest. Completely secluded and serene. Top notch service ( special mention to Pappu / Rajkumar/ Dilip for making our stay absolutely pleasurable. Mind blowing food so special thanks to Chef Gaurav for always accomodating our request The special dinner was the ultimate high for us . Extremely well organised and private

With Taj Safaris one expects the best and this Lodge fully lived upto our expectations. Superb location ***** riverbank and spread over 90 acres it is a perfect introduction to what the forest offers. The tents are commodious, air conditioned/ heated, neat and clean. The main attraction is Chef Gaurav Chauthe whose cuisine is delectable. Veg and non-veg dishes are tasty and the accent is on the local cuisine. Our local friends who we invited for dinner were full of praise for the Chef’s creations.

We had been to BT 5 years ago and had loved it then. This time around it managed to outdo itself. The rooms were updated, housekeeping was en pointe and what felt like 4 times a day, the staff in general was so courteous and efficient, the naturalist Sangitha was exceptional, the manager Saurabh was clearly captaining his ship very well, Venkatesh I'm sure had a big part to play in it too. Rajkumar our butler was the perfect mix of friendly+professional. Chef Nim's and Chef Abhishek's food hit the spot every time. And of course the jungle was breathtaking. We are such loyalists of Taj Safaris and make it a point to tell everyone we know of how a cut above the experience is. While we personally love the warmth of Taj what sets the jungle lodges apart is your naturalists. We've been to jungle properties in Rajasthan, Karnataka and others in MP as well but your naturalists take the cake. We even booked Oberoi Bandhavgarh but it felt so sanitised compared to the nature focus of Taj. Love Taj Safaris - what a brand.

We had an amazing experience during our stay at Banjaar Tola. The location is stunning, set right beside the river, but what truly made the stay exceptional was Taj’s signature hospitality. Every member of the staff was warm, attentive, and made us feel genuinely cared for. The rooms, service, food, and overall ambience were all top-notch. Highly recommended!

This was the first time we stayed at a Taj Jungle Resort Property. We had a wonderful experience here. The rooms were very well maintained and decorated. Though they were tented cottages, yet they were extremely comfortable and as good as a concrete structure. The entire staff was extremely customer friendly, always with a smile and very caring. We were spoiled for options for breakfast, lunch and dinner with Chef specifically preparing dishes of our choice inspite of having guests in other cottages. The naturalist for our safari was very knowledgeable and accommodating. Mr. Krishna ensured we had the best experience during the safari ride even though it was raining and went out of the way to ensure we could get a good view of a Tiger. The unique way of the staff welcoming every time with all of them standing at the resort entrance and waving their hands, whenever we came to the resort either the first time, when we returned from safari or checkout and left the resort was outstanding.

After our first experience with Taj Safari at Bandhavgarh couple of years back, we decided this time to visit Kanha. Again it was a long drive from Jamshedpur, with an intermediate halt both ways. On reaching there, we found that it was a long way inside the forest from the main gate on the highway. I followed the direction given by the security ***, and had an adventurous journey to the tent location. Later, I found that there was another straightforward and less adventurous approach road, which I used while leaving the premises. The tents are situated right on the bank of the river. On the other side of the Banjaar river, it is the core zone of national park. We were not that fortunate to see the tiger movement from the tent, but we saw a herd of spotted deer – they suddenly ran away as soon as there was repeated alarm calls by the monkeys. It was thrilling to watch that the deep forest activities were occurring just on the other side of the river, and perhaps we narrowly missed a tiger sighting also. The overall experience is quite similar to what we had in Bandhavgarh (interested person may take a look of my review of Mahua Kothi). Unique way of welcoming the guests, amazing hospitality, comfort, food, etc. – just typical of Taj. And again I would say, it is not just luxurious arrangements, it is the wonderful people who make the difference. A truly memorable experience for the lifetime. My sincere thanks and best wishes to all of them. However, there was one trouble that we experienced during our stay of two days. A number of frogs were entering – and they were found randomly here and there inside the tent, every now and then. We had to call the helpdesk repeatedly, and every time they came and recovered few frogs. I hope that this matter would be taken care of properly.

We were really impressed by the overall service of the extremely caring staff. They did everything in their capacity to make our stay a memorable one. Chef Gaurav deserves a special mention for his excellent culinary skills. The staff had organised a special evening with local cuisine ***** with local folk performances - a memory that will stay with us for a long time.
