He arranged the rental of bicycles to visit the temple, he gave us information to take the bus and good advice to find local restaurants. The location is very convenient, close to shops, restaurants and now far from the temples. The room was very clean and quiet. We thank you for the very nice stay :)

Accessible via private entrance, all units have air conditioning, soundproofing, desk and a private bathroom with a shower. Some units include a terrace and/or a balcony with city views and an outdoor dining area. At the guest house, all units have bed linen and towels. Professional, courteous and helpful. The rooms are large and clean with good facilities. We had a day of torrential rain which confined us to the guesthouse. It was absolutely a pleasure to sit and read a book, watch the many birds and plan the next days. Bicycle hire was easy, and the owners generous with local knowledge.

The guest house specialises in a Full English/Irish and Asian breakfast and breakfast in the room is also available. At Villa Ravichini, the family-friendly restaurant is open for dinner, lunch and high tea and serves Asian cuisine. The guesthouse is close to the main sites. Ravi makes delicious breakfast with lots of fresh fruits. He even made us a takeaway breakfast when we had to leave early for elephant safari. Ravi organized bikes for us to use to see the ruins. He also set up an elephant safari with an excellent guide, Shiron. He was knowledgeable and showed us some incredible birds. He had a knack for getting us in the right spots for elephant viewing and was respectful to give the elephants space. Highly recommend a trip with him. We also recommend the morning trip as he said in the afternoons sometimes there are 200 jeeps!
