We had a great time here. The staff were friendly and helpful, the food tasty and honestly priced, rooms really comfortable and clean and the setting really relaxing. We loved the fact the rooms were set around a well maintained garden in which you can chill with the odd rogue cow. We also found the staff helped us with booking... More

If you are trying to spot the elusive Indian Tiger when traveling (and who isn't eh?) and you plan on visiting Kanha via the Khatia Gate i can recommend Motel Chandan. Good budget option literally a few hundred metres from the entrance to the park. Friendly staff will help you to sort out tickets and jeeps for safari although you... More

This is a place with alot of potential, but unfortunately it fails to deliver. The rooms are very large and pretty clean, showers strong but not guaranteed hot (not necessary in the climate if you shower during the day), manager is very helpful when he is around, when he's not, nobody really appears interested in helping you out, and english...

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Chandan Motel for 3 nights. Staff were very helpful on arrival and Amit was very helpful in helping us secure safari tickets. Sadly, no tigers but knew we would have to be very very lucky to see one. Saw other wildlife and just the drive through the park was beautiful. Amit also took us... More

I stayed at Motel Chandan for many days and have to say that it is one of the most beautiful budget hotels I've stayed at in India. Flowers bloom year round and greenery sets the stage for a safari-filled holiday. Rooms were clean with showers, western-style toilets and basic but functional furnishings. The grounds have plenty of benches and chairs... More

I had no complaints about the accommodation here. It is clean and has everything you need for not much money (if rather a lot of mosquitoes). However, Dinesh proved to be a slippery character. He offered me to share a safari with two other foreigners staying in another hotel, and that we would split the cost of the jeep and... More

We spent 4 nights here and had a great stay. Rooms clean, duvets for warmth and lots of hot water! Only caution is that although Amit seemed keen to help us find fellow travellers to share a safari ( and cost with), we were dissappointed to pay for a safari to find fellow guest to share with and then told...
