For anyone with interest in ancient archaeology and evolution.
Pros:

It is right in the midst and part of the archaeological relics.

Cons:

Not all rooms open out into the quadrangle. Some smaller rooms are priced the same as some larger ones.

Overall we had pleasant and comfortable stay 😊
Pros:

This property is in the heritage area , which is perfect for the art lover like me , as I can go and explore the historic sites whenever I want.
Cleanliness of this property is top notch and staffs are very polite.
Thanks to Wada1 , we had good vegetarian food in this area.

Cons:

We didn't like the limited options in breakfast as they are charging very high for 2-3 items only.
The surrounding areas are very dirty and open defecation was there everywhere .

Pros:

Beautifully restored heritage buildings. Staff were attentive and helpful, had a very comfortable stay, wish it had been longer. Good home cooked food for both dinner and breakfast.

Cons:

Minor point, but a small fridge would have been useful.

Fabulous stay and location albeit out of the way... but it was worth the trip.
Pros:

Amazing architecture and interior decor. So peaceful and tranquil next to some of the monuments.

Cons:

Staff in the kitchen and dining were totally unprepared for the number of guests at the hotel. Being the only place with full meals in the vicinity, naturally ALL hotel guests go to the dining hall for meals. However, there isnt enough room to accommodate everyone and food service is extremely slow.

Een oase van rust temidden van het pitorske Aihole
Pros:

Wat een plek. Kom je buiten de poort en je staat tussen de koeien, stront, vuilnis en 10tallen prachtige tempels. Geniet van deze oase en ook van de vele lieve dorpelingen in Aihole

Pros:

Ein sehr außergewöhnliches Hotel in einer uralten historischen Tempelanlage mit äußerst sensibler und geschmackvoller Architektur und sehr ansprechender Gestaltung aller Details. Das alles in einem vitalen kleinen indischen Dorf mit uralten Tempelanlagen und einer aufgeschlossenen Bewohnerschaft.

Cons:

Der Kontrast von Arm (die Dorfbevölkerung) und Reich (gut bewacht hinter hohen Mauern und Toren) kann einen nicht "kalt"lassen und stellt viele Fragen.

Maharashtra style Wada where life is on slow pace
Pros:

Ramesh and Prasanna are managing the hotel very well. They helped us with customizing the food and suggested the places to visit and their importance. Staff is friendly and make your stay worthwhile. Will definitely prefer this place to stay upon our next visit. Highly recommended !!

Cons:

As such nothing to dislike

Clean rooms, terrible food, no value for money
Pros:

Well renovated heritage house with 24 rooms. Comfortable and clean linen.

Cons:

Grossly under staffed. Went there over the long weekend when folks are likely to book. The hotel supervisors were doing just about every thing which meant each time one requested room service - we were told hold is short staffed. The Chef did not accommodate for chilly allergies despite multiple requests. On the final day the buffet breakfast was taken off due to low accompany and the food was dismal despite being charged the full amount. It became clear that despite good intentions the supervisors are not well trained in hospitality and I’m surprised why this is pitched as a premium location but is very basic. Booking dot com should relook at analytics before letting travelers rely on its algorithm. This isn’t working well. I would avoid this location.

Wada 1 - a wonderful stay
Pros:

The ambience, the environment and the staff shared information about the places of interest in detail.
Breakfast was a good spread.

Cons:

That only buffet option was available for dinner.
The tables either didn't have cutlery or didn't have napkins.
