Jalmahal is located in a quiet, secluded area, far from the hustle and bustle of the city—perfect if you're looking for a peaceful getaway. However, the rooms we stayed in felt quite small, with very little space to move around. At ₹4,000 per room, the size and overall feel did not meet expectations. While the room was clean, the bathroom was small and just about average in terms of cleanliness.
The swimming pool was decent, but it was disappointing to see guests entering the pool without proper swimwear, which is a big no for me. On a positive note, the pool caretaker was proactive in ensuring guests took a shower before entering the pool.
We had snacks and beer— the vegetarian platter was quite good, but the chicken dish we ordered was below par. Breakfast was average, although the egg preparation stood out and the filter coffee was above average.
Fresh towels were provided, which was appreciated.
The resort does offer recreational facilities like cricket, volleyball, and shuttle courts, making it a good choice for team outings or group activities. Indoor games are also available, which adds to the overall experience.
Overall, Jalmahal has potential, especially for group events, but there are a few areas that need improvement.
