About About the place

Vivekanand Sarovar, historically known as Buddha Talab, is a prominent lake located centrally in Raipur. The lake has undergone renovations and now features a 37-foot high statue of Swami Vivekananda as its focal point, surrounded by gardens and palm trees. It's a popular spot for evening walks, enjoying the illuminated statue, and sampling street food. While once a favored hangout for locals, some visitors note a decline in maintenance. Boating facilities are available, and the area is often lively with activity.

It is a great place to stay and gives you much luxury and comfort at a great price. The service is great and the management was very prompt and was very helpful and assisted us with everything. The rooms were big and spacious, well maintained and the views from the window of the city skyline was just stunning. Loved my experience here!

This park is amazing and has beautiful scenery. It is a perfect spot to take a good walk or even go for a run. There is a dedicated trail, well managed in the park. The trees by the trail are just beautiful and provide a lot of good air. There are also benches in the park where you can sit and relax.

The place is so beautiful that I could not take my eyes off it. The place is a heritage building which has stunning architecture and the Victorian style walls are simply amazing. We visited the place on a weekday and it had a lot of people. But things were arranged in a proper way and we could have the tour nicely.

There was nothing special about this speciality hotel and it was such a disappointment. The place was literally in ruins and it pinches me to see all my money goes to waste. The rooms were really dirty and unkept and the service was pathetic. I won’t recommend this to anyone and it was the worst experience.
