Here are the review of Hotel I stayed at in Khajuraho and also review of the restaurants I had food at during my recent trip to Khajuraho.
Hotel Siddharth: Hotel Siddharth is bang opposite the Western Group of Temples and staff is courteous, helpful and friendly, click here to read the complete review…
While I was thoroughly satisfied with my hotel stay, food wise I was disappointed with almost all the places I had eaten at in Khajuraho, here are the reviews:
Hotel Siddhartha’s roof top and ground floor restaurant: Hotel Siddhartha’s roof top restaurant offers fantastic views of the Western Group of Temples and is a perfect for photography. Food wise it wasn’t all that bad, but not as good as I would have wanted it to be. Click here to read more…
Raja Café: located right next to Hotel Siddharth, Rajaj Café advertises itself as the place recommended by all the guide books. However it failed to impress me during both of my breakfast breaks. Click here to read more…
Madras Café: Once again, right opposite Western Group of Temples but a smaller joint than the rest. Really thought I would get cheap and decent food there. But Rs. 100 for a veg thali, of which I could only eat one subzi, isn’t all that VFM. Though I didn’t try their Dosa, it is somewhat economically priced at Rs. 40.

Balla Italia: Easily the worst food joint at Khajuraho and one of the worst if not worst food I have ever eaten on a trip, if their chef is really from Italy, then he needs to be deported ASAP! Click here to read more…
Thankfully I got better food while going to and coming back from Khajuraho and to top it all, it was way cheaper than what I paid in Khajuraho! Heck, even a small dhaba in the middle of nowhere, around 30km before Khajuraho, served better food!
It might have been that I went to all the wrong places (never going to trust Lonely Planet’s restaurant recommendation again) or that they are way too geared for the foreign tourists and locals that for a North India like me, it wasn’t all the great. But whatever it was, food was the only sore point (apart from the puncture my bike suffered) in an otherwise perfect and wonderful trip.
