Ranthambore National Park, Rajasthan, India

Set in a large walled garden only five minutes from the park gates, Tiger Den is a dependable midscale hotel popular mainly with tour groups. Whether in the main double-storeyed block or more luxurious cottages, its rooms are spacious, well maintained and air-conditioned, with large porches.

You’ve also a good-sized pool to relax in. Meals are either multi-cuisine buffets served in a high-ceilinged dining hall, or barbeque dinners out on the lawn with live Rajasthani folk music and dance. Bonfires are lit on chilly winter evenings.

Our opinion

This budget hotel with three star facilities offers good value for money.
