Lovely place to stay.
Pros:

Lovely haveli-style hotel full of charm and character. An oasis of calm amidst the chaos outside! It felt peaceful, safe and secure. All the staff were very friendly, helpful and efficient. Well presented room. Huge bathroom with excellent shower. Good fan and aircon. Breakfast was fantastic.

Cons:

The twin beds were rather narrow and the mattresses very firm indeed. Sheets also felt a little rough. Having said that they were comfortable enough.
There was an annoying light over the door that couldn’t be turned fully off so no blackout for sleeping.

Memorable heritage stay.
Pros:

The warmth of our host who made us feel like cherished guests. The location was a quiet oasis in the busy market area.
We were served excellent tasty home cooked meals for breakfast and lunch/dinner. The hostess went over and above to give us packed lunch for our homeward journey. It was a pleasure to get to know her and learn from her about culture and history of Gwalior. She also gave us excellent tips about shopping.

Cons:

Being senior citizens we were a bit apprehensive about crossing the sunken bath in the center of the bathroom to reach WC, particularly during night. Also a proper high level rack to keep bags would have been welcome.

Characterful and comfortable.
Pros:

Hidden away off of a busy main street, Krishnayan Heritage is an old building, with lots of character and comfortable too. The staff were very helpful in making suggestions of where to visit (take their advice - we visited places not in the guide books). The dinner we had there was excellent.

Cons:

Nothing really.

Une très belle étape pour découvrir Gwalior et Orchha!
Pros:

Haveli magnifique en retrait de Gwalior, bruyante et poussiéreuse. L'accueil est très sympathique, la chambre était raffinée et très spacieuse. L'agence avec laquelle travaille la haveli nous a aidé à bien découvrir les richesses de Gwalior. Le guide papier du propriétaire nous a permis de découvrir Orchha, absente de nos guides touristiques français et qui en vaut la peine. Petit déjeuner très varié et dîner du soir à la demande, très fin.

Cons:

Manque de chauffage d'appoint l'hiver dans la salle du petit-déjeuner et dîner

Pros:

L'hotel è molto grazioso e le camere hanno un fascino retrò.
Il manager dell'hotel è stato molto ospitale e gentile: ci ha introdotti alla città e dato informazioni su orari e servizi del forte di Gwalior (nella cui scuola ha lavorato per molti anni). Ci ha aiutati anche ad organizzare transfer, tour e comunicazioni con negozianti locali.

Cons:

Nulla

Charming oasis just off the chaos of old Gwalior
Pros:

Excellent food - cooked by Lalita Phalke, the matriarch, herself, authentic Maharashtrian dishes one won't otherwise find at other places. An old world atmosphere with superb staff and attention. The owner Laxman is charming and there to welcome you.

Cons:

Better coffee please!

Sehr schönes Heritage mit netter Gastgeber-Familie
Pros:

Sehr schöne Unterkunft im alten Stil. Die gastgebende Familie ist sehr nett. Die Mutti des Gastgebers fungierte als Köchin und war so besorgt, dass uns das Essen nicht schmecken könnte. Aber es war so lecker und reichlich! Wir können die Unterkunft nur wärmstens weiterempfehlen.

A pearl in Gwalior
Pros:

A warm welcome from nice, friendly and helpful residents of Krishnayan Heritage is the first experience after entering the gate of the Krishnayan Heritage (and this specific home-like climate will accompany you till the last moment of your stay). The place is actually a home of the respectable Phalke family, a family notable in the history of India and the residents of this urban ancient palace as well as their team run a high standard hotel business, thus adopting this spacy noble home to the more modern situation of our times. It's a great place to stay in Gwalior if you come to explore the history and culture of this region, as the very hotel is an authentic evidence of both of them. And you can get some useful first-hand information about everything in Gwalior (or around) which may be in the area of your interest (yet, they do not practice any attempts to urge or convince you about what you may need, they are great persons of high culture and standards and their place is a sanctuary where you take your rest safely, free of anything what may annoy or frustrate you - not every hotel is really so). The place is perfectly clean, charming and of exquisite elegance. I highly recommend Krishnayan Heritage, it is a real pearl in too many aspects than I can touch in my review.
