The property seems very old and need some serious maintenance. The room that we got was having very dim lights, Tv was not working, exhaust fan was not working, no mirror outside the bathroom. Only good thing about the place was that it has good connectivity and was very clean. They followed all covid protocols. Everyone there was fully vaccinated. Food was below average as compared to other places around the area. Hence I would give it 3 star.

Awesome stay, highly recommended.
Awesome service. All staff personals were very nice. Pool water was really clean, food was awesome. Had a minor issue of mosquitoes in room and balcony area, but room service guys were prompt to address that. Overall enjoyed my stay so much that I didn't step out of hotel at all after checkin. Completely peaceful ambience. Highly recommended to everyone who want to relax for couple of days from their busy schedule.

Itsy bitsy unpretentious Gorbandh stay
I will start by saying I am easy to please. .. Give me a clean room of comfortable proportions and I take to it. Gorbandh palace was built in 1992 and the property covers a huge area. .. The facade is comparable to any 5-star hotel... The same grandeur is evident at the reception, the dining room, the lawns and party places, the terraces and the pool. There are elegant courtyards all around the property and outside your rooms and that's where the grandeur ends. The rooms are surprisingly small and very disproportionate to the rest of the property.The room size is a regular lemon tree hotel size or smaller probably. For me that was a rude shock especially since the pictures suggested otherwise and i booked it for 3 adults. The room is not big enough for even 2 adults. So here's where the romance ended for me, the washroom was even tinier. It didn't help that the management was lax in ensuring our comfort despite my apparent displeasure at the room. I stayed there for 3 nights since i had booked for 3 nights and despite constant reminders they only provided for tea cups and water for 2 people only even though i paid for the third bed in advance and the additional bed lay in the room as a constant reminder of triple occupancy. And this after i placed a call with Expedia and the rep intervened and assured me that facility would ensure my utmost convenience. On one occasion they forgot me for 20 minutes after handing me the menu, there were only 3 other tables occupied then.

Its a nice place, with great service. Restaurant team had packed our breakfast as we had to leave early for Udaipur. Packing and food quantity and variety was great. It is in a quite place, very good for relaxing. On the Google maps, it will not show the right place, it is on SAM road.

it was a pleasurable stay at Gorbandh. The staff was courteous and affable. The went out of the way to make us comfortable. The property is well maintained and nicely designed. The hotel being a bit away from the city, it was not possible to eat outside. The food at the restaurant was a bit too spicy to eat. The children found the food very hot. Overall, it was a memorable stay.

Overall good
The hotel is very nice and clean, we were greeted by a cool 'khus' drink, even though it was a rather late check-in. The staff is very friendly. The facade is gorgeous, the rooms are clean, the dining is great. The only complaint was that the wi-fi did not work in the lobby, although it was supposed to be working. Although you are on a vacation, we all know we need to be connected, so for a hotel that is really quite top-notch, and for the price you expect those 'small' things to work!

A/C does not work!!!
The rooms are modern and clean, with Flat Screen TVs, laminate flooring. Pool facility is great. Staff are friendly. But I was there in May when temperatures reached a scorching 117 degrees F. Management was too CHEAP to turn on the A/C during the day. At night time, the A/C did not work, it was still 100 degrees in the rooms. Complained twice, changed rooms, but still the same. Did NOT get any good sleep because it was too hot! No excuse for a 4 star hotel not to have Air conditioning.
