Ken River Lodge

Lovely jungle resort located right next to Panna Tiger Reserve. We stayed in the new rooms that were luxurious, modern and bright with a clean, functional and large bathroom.

Facing the Ken River the rooms had a view to die for. There was a small plunge pool on the terrace overlooking the river that we could not use due to the cold winter days. But I am sure it will be a lovely place to unwind after a hot day in the Tiger Reserve.

The food was outstanding. The owners, true hosts with lots of background stories on the struggle and difficulties of being the first ever jungle resort in Panna.

We used the gypsies provided by the hotel for out safari rides. They have fabulous naturalist who know the jungle like the back of their hands. We saw leopards, sloth bears and a tiger.

All in all a lovely 3 nights were spent by us at Ken River Lodge.

We stayed there for 2 nights in march 2023. Overall the experience was very good. Due to hectic schedule, we were not able to explore the resort much, however the stay was very comfortable. The dining area on the outside, beside Ken river, was the main attraction of the experience. The food was all inclusive in the price. Food provided was tasty with change of menu on every occasion. We also took a boat safari and the experience was very good. We also availed the jungle safari from the resort but the experience was not good. It was 5 am in the morning with cold temperature and the safari driver brought an open jeep which was very uncomfortable. We could not spot the tiger or any other animal for that matter. I felt there was lack of effort from safari driver to ensure that we spot a tiger, considering we paid INR 8500 for the safari. I feel there was lack of any activity in the report, expected swimming pool to be there to chill in hot summer.

Location is good but the restaurant facility is bit weak, taste of food is nice. Much expensive. Needed pest control lots of insects and rats are roaming here and there. Dont know whether kitchen was hygenic or not...
