Simba Jungle Lodge, Binsar Wildlife Sanctuary

The hotel is in good location in the middle of the forest area but service is pathetic as there is only one man to attend all. Moreover they haven't mention that there will be no power provision during booking but will call after cancellation period is over and tell you that there will be no power after 9 pm and dinner will be served before 9 pm. Moreover they don't have any alternative arrangements for power backup and gives u a candle instead and blame on the Solar Power system failure. It's pathetic experience. Request all not to book this hotel unless u want to experience this type of inconvenience. Here people come mostly for snacks and return back. This was our last leg of our tour after Nainital and Kausani and this turned out to be a nightmare. The food prices are exorbitant and not upto the mark. We are both 50 above and wanted to spent hassle free 2 days here away from sounds and with nature. Electricity is a very basic requirement more than networks. They just misguided us and not mentioned this inconvenience while booking. Be aware.

The staff is cooperative. The food is too costly, but fortunately the taste was okay. The stay for the driver is chargeable. Location is good but there are few more options with better location and at nearly same price.There is no charging point in the rooms; we had to charge our phones in the cafeteria. Everything works on solar power.

Amazing stay with warm hospitality and great food. You get to see beautiful sunsets from here, enjoy the wildlife and impromptu jam sessions with the staff. There had been rain and hailstorm which added to the scenic beauty. I was traveling solo and had a wonderful experience here meeting fellow travellers.

My recent stay at Simba was delightful. The sanctuary itself is calm and peaceful. The accommodation is very nicely integrated into surroundings. Kishore warm hospitality and monoj cooking are so warming. If you are want a peaceful get away Simba cafe in binsar sanctuary is the place.
