Hotel Isabel Palace

Top choice in Khajuraho


This fantastic hotel, along a quiet dirt road 1.5km south of town, is perfect for flashpackers and backpackers. The sparkling-clean rooms vary according to view (garden or sunrise), decor and furnishings, but all are spacious and very comfortable and have a terrace or balcony. There are nice homely touches such as framed textiles on the walls and colourful, tiled wardrobes.

Surendra, the manager, is delightful and takes his family’s hospitality business very seriously. The food in the in-house restaurant is average. For budget travellers there's also a small dorm.
