Aura Kalari - Home Stay in Bengaluru, Nadagowdagollahalli - Bengaluru Urban, India

Very bad choice! Very unhygienic, bad bedsheets, quilts. Bathroom is very very bad -you absolutely wil not be able to use it! The caretakers live very much there and cook within that house - when we arrived, the place was literally smelling like a tiffin box opened in a cab! The area is a cut out of a residential plot kinds, so you will not feel that you have come out of the city, and there is no outdoor thing that you can do around. Please plan something better for your weekend den this.

I visited here with three of my friends on 15th august 2023. Here goes my experience: Pros: 1) Within Bangalore hence a quick getaway with friends. 2) gives a nice feeling of staying in a mudhouse. 3) pets (cats) around were extremely amusing 4) good for professional photoshoot. Cons: 1) This is not a resort but a homestay located in a very much city like residential colony. The buildings around this place are modern and concrete and don't give a village like feel unless you are just sitting inside 2) The host (owner) hardly bothers to show courtesy to check if you have arrived and if your stay was comfortable at the time when you are staying. 3) my primary concern with this place was hygiene and cleanliness: a. Unclean sheets and pillow covers. I could find used tissue papers under pillow and hair stands on bed and smelly blankets b.the outdoor sitting arrangement were not dusted and had layers of dust c. The inside house water body which is the main photography area was littered with stinky cat poops with flying flies on it, which almost made us puke. d. Toilet seats were stained and washroom highly unclean. Tissue paper was not provided nor the soap dispensers filled. Also towels were not provided. They only provided when we asked. 4) food was homely but average in taste and not with many options as per the price we paid. 5) the aesthetics of the place was much compromised. They look better in pictures. In the evening they would keep all outdoor lights shut off and there was great resistance to turn them on when we asked. 6) We completely disliked it when the caretaker asked us to write good reviews on their review book despite us telling him that we were not satisfied. He asked us to skip writing about cleanliness issues. The caretaker was adamant and inhospitable is what we felt and didn't help us take our luggage to our cars only because we gave a negative feedback. 7) if you are visiting with friends, privacy is highly compromised here as it's a very small space. I wouldn't recommend this place unless you are looking for photoshoot professional shoot.

Really it is very nice place, loved it so much, owner Rajeev sir support was too good very nice person he is food arrangements room neatness really staying in mud house and top tree house experience was soooo good, a hidden gem place in banglore just 30km far. Very good for birthday celebration to surprise your friends and get together parties as well as for families also it is good place to get relief. So peaceful.. no traffic sound nothing just enjoy the natural air and relax peacefully must visited place. Thank you rajeev sir for your support and for all the arrangements

Good for a night stay. It's a mud and tree house within a residential community.Suits people of Bangalore who needs to have a change without travelling much away from the city. Caretakers are good. Nice home made food is served.

I stayed with two of my pets, they had a gala time, I loved the natural fresh air n positivity of the place soooo much, a must visit place to relax n chill out. Food was awesome too.

Mud house- Its a small 1 hall setup attached with Tree house( very congested and you have to be really careful with kids and elderly )with no ceiling fan. In the website, it looks like its a secluded place in the nature but reality is different. Its in the Residential setup where you see regular houses and in the same society mud house is done. And no place to walk around and occasionally you will see Rats. Due to rain, Power went off around 3 in the wee hours and never came back till 7:30. We raised the issue with Nepali care taker but he was super rude so we complained to the owner and he was decent and refunded the money post dinner deductions. Service- Unfortunately, very limited variety of food. Basic toiletries is unavailable. Overall, Bad experience considering the Rs 3500 per hc. We were 5 people and endup paying 17500 ( returned after dinner deduct) with not even 2 star stay experience.

Aura Kalari Is a beautiful stay house away from the city. You will get a feel of village in a mud and tree house. Good for one day stay. Pros - 1. Tree house and dinning area are full of fresh air. 2. Mud house is cool even in afternoon. 3. Village feel. 4. Small fish pond inside the house. 5. Food taste is good. 6. Neat and clean. 7. Happy go owner Rajeev (pleasure meeting) Corn - 1. Area is small suitable for single family. 2. Very less variety of food. 3. Dinner items are served in next day lunch which is not expected. 4. Mattress and pillows are hard need to be replaced. 5. With time the place need renovation and update. Over all one can spend a day and relax.

Nice food. Nice place. Good quality and quantity for a one day/night stay
