    HUGE PROPERTY! The hotel has been done up really well! The Rooms are super big! The buffet spread is never-ending!!!! Vast variety of appetizers, dishes, desserts! Every alternate day they serve dinner near the pool and have a live classical dance performance, a really nice experience! Overall had a good stay here, but somehow felt as if the staff was overworked especially at the restaurant they must increase the staff. Ms. Riva at Tuluva was very proactive and prompt with her service and of course with a contagious smiling face, took really good care of us during all the meals.

    Resort stay date May 24-25. During the course of stay there were multiple breakdowns and People kept coming to resolve the same to our room. Even the Jacuzzi was not cleaned properly. We had booked the resort for our first anniversary and we wanted to have some privacy which was completely ignored by the staff. They didn’t even deliver what was offered while we made the booking like decor for the room, jacuzzi etc. Since this was an ultra premium resort we didn’t think twice before reserving the same. But our experience was highly disappointing. We had raised these concerns to the manager on the next morning for which they offered a guided tour of Hampi and lunch, we weren’t actually interested in the tour since it was summer and we had travelled only for the resort stay and had plans for that night back home and told the same to the manager. Guided tour was actually worth and the guide was really informative and covered most places as promised in a short span of time since we had limited time in hand. But when we reached back at the resort restaurant for lunch there was limited people for the service and they left midway and we were stuck there for quite sometime. Due to which we left without completing our lunch. In short we had a terrible experience at evolve back

    It was an amazing experience for us as a couple to celebrate our anniversary at Evolve Back Hampi. The property is very beautiful and very well maintained. The food is great. Personally, it is the staff that stands out compared to all other 5 star resorts. They are very welcoming and courteous. They really help you to ensure you enjoy all facilities and help whenever needed. IMHO, it is probably one of the best places in India to celebrate occasions and enjoy personal and quiet time with your loved one.

    Serene, private, beautifully conceptualized and maintained. Perfect getaway from the madding crowd! Apart from the lavish rooms, the resort has one of the friendliest and most charming staff running the whole show, who go out of their way to pamper and spoil you for the duration of your stay. We stayed for 3 nights and they seemingly never got tired of seeing the same old faces! The food was excellent too and the two restaurants serve up a wide array of delicacies. Certainly had the best Ambur biryani I've ever had! We also took up the offer of the in-house guide and open top car to give us a tour of Hampi. Must say that despite having my own car at disposal, the decision to hire the guide and hotel car was an excellent decision! It gave me time to admire the scenery and relax without worrying about where and how to go, park the car etc. The package may seem a bit expensive but I think it's worth every penny. Note, half day tour was enough to take in the ruins of Hampi for us. Us city folks aren't built to trudge through the widely spread ruins of this ancient city! If you do want to seep in more of it though, you may want to either spend the whole day or spread sightseeing over two days. All in all, we had a fantastic experience and we couldn't have asked for a better getaway after being cooped up at home for 2.5 years thanks to CoVID! Highly recommended.

    The UNESCO World Heritage site, Hampi lets you step back in time to the awe-inspiring architectural excellence of the 14th century. It was the golden era in the history of Karnataka under the glorious Vijayanagar empire. Taking inspiration from the bygone era, Evolve Back Hampi is a luxury resort situated just 4km from the historical site. From the stone-paved boulevards and regal chambers, you will get a glimpse of the past in every step here.

  • 1/5 Karthik B. 1 year ago on Google
    Hey Team , let’s be honest here…Evolve Hampi is at best (i repeat …at best) a pimped up government lodge with hideous aesthetic taste on display. Horribly overpriced and an experience I will not repeat and recommend others to stay far away! 1) Starting from check in the hotel staff are clearly overwhelmed and their lack of preparation and training is evident. They lack basic good communication skills and …Don’t blame them but rather the management. 2) The rooms are huge, impersonal and lacking any sense of aesthetic touch. Frankly the interiors are insipid with things done for the sake of showing they spent money…the choice of flooring, the lighting the choice of furniture all very poor. The shower was not scrubbed well (sorry for 600 dollars I expect spotless)…the towels had stains on them. Quality of Toilet paper , the soap dispenser (need to pump it a few times to get it to work), the lack of shower gel …all extremely disappointing. The rooms have a large balcony (no plants?) and very peaceful with no road noise creeping in. Oh btw - room internet is patchy( 3) Regarding food & beverage , the food is good …kudos to the chef . For a hotel of its stature they lack varieties of gin, tonic, wines etc. The staff who wait on you are well intentioned but lack proper training…a bit all over the place. 4) The hotel property is by itself not bad but for the discerning Traveller who is looking for a premium and private experience…look somewhere else.

    Stayed at Evolve back, Hampi for nights with my family. It’s a very beautiful property and the sunset and the sunrise from the property is breathtaking. The food is excellent, kudos to the chef 👏🏼 However, the service from the staff is extremely bad, I repeat extremely bad! They have absolutely no idea what they are doing! They usually took 30 minutes to serve coffee during breakfast and high tea. It was awkward for us to ask the staff for anything since they were ill mannered.. We have stayed at Evolve back, Coorg as well and the service there was excellent. We were very disappointed about our stay at Evolve back, Hampi.

    The property is worth every penny spent. Every single bit of it is tastefully done and very well maintained. Food is good! And such wonderful staff - everyone from reception to housekeeping, restaurant, kids play area, bell desk, just everyone! Do not fear the heat of Hampi.

    I recently stayed at a hotel for two days and one night, and I must say the experience was quite pleasant. The bathroom was clean and well-maintained, with modern fixtures and ample toiletries provided. The bedroom space was cozy and well-designed, offering a comfortable bed and sufficient storage. Overall, a satisfying stay with no complaints about the accommodations.

  • 5/5 Akshay P. 1 year ago on Google
    Every dollar invested on the property is worthwhile. Everything about it is tastefully finished and kept up. I like the food! And such excellent personnel, from the front desk to housekeeping, the restaurant, the children's play area, and everyone else! Do not be alarmed by Hampi's heat. In the height of summer, you can go sightseeing in the early mornings and late at night. We stayed for four days but only left for one. The remaining time was spent unwinding and fully appreciating the property.

  • 5/5 Mohit K. 11 months ago on Google
    I have been to this place with family. Great place with surrounding. Looks like you are staying in forest. Good staff. Accommodates all request. Since we were occupying most of the rooms in this place, everything was at our request. Value for money.

  • 5/5 Wasim m. 7 months ago on Google
    I don’t think I can say enough about this place. Worth every second spent here. Hospitality is top notch and it was such a relief considering we had an extremely active toddler to handle. Every member of the staff was extremely pleasant and accommodating of all big and small requests. Everything from experiences, food and the amenities were something that we savoured during our stay. Special mention to the housekeeping staff for the towel animals.

    I visited Hampi for a weekend with my family. A friend had recommended Evolve Back and I’m so glad I took his advice seriously. Right from the warm welcome to the checkout, everything was perfect. Staff was very cooperative, rooms were breathtakingly good and we had a great time. Would definitely come here again.

  • 5/5 Iiii 2. 1 year ago on Google
    We stayed at the property for two nights and felt like royalty staying in a palace. The quiet starry nights were so beautiful it was a real bliss. Some staff members were really helpful.

  • 5/5 Edna A. 2 years ago on Google
    A beautiful property with attentive and helpful staff. I spent 3 nights at Evolve Back, Hampi and enjoyed my stay. I stayed in one of the villas which I found to be spacious and clean and I loved having my own pool. There was a decent variety of food. I would stay here again.

  • 5/5 Ankita D. 2 years ago on Google
    Well maintained beautiful property. Rooms and bathrooms are cozy and good. Service is good. Staff is cordial, prompt and hospitable. Food is good. Lot of open area for walking and rejuvenation. Spa is good and offers proper Ayurvedic massages. Nice artwork all over the lobby. Games room and pool are there for entertainment. Live flutist adds to the charm of the place every evening.

  • 5/5 yogesh j. 2 years ago on Google
    The place is just awesome. Peaceful and well maintained. Complete staff is very helpful and polite. They helped us out even for last minute booking. The food quality is also quite good. Would definitely recommend to explore their Bhamani restaurant which has some awesome delicacies. They have in-house guide that can arrange tours for you around the town. Highly recommended that service as it makes the Hampi experience complete as they explain the architecture and its history in detail. December month during Christmas and new year they have carnival in the property. Best property in Hampi, highly recommended.

  • 5/5 Sumathi S. 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful property. Fantastic hospitality n nice spread of food. Very nice ambience. But bathrooms have to be maintained little more. We were given room no 104 for 2 nights n 102 for a night. Both the rooms jacuzzi were not alright. So much of our time wasted waiting for the staff to come. Even shower was not proper. So pl check all these things before the guest arrives.

  • 3/5 Akshatha 2 years ago on Google
    The property is definitely beautiful! More so at night with all the lights and candles. The resort area is not as big as one would imagine for the price we pay. It's a collection of lot of buildings in palatial style and a big entrance garden. But there's nothing much to it apart from this. The rooms or villas are exquisitely designed to make you feel like u are living in a palace. Basically you pay for the architecture and interior. The food is good but they only give you free breakfast and one meal I think, not sure. Else to order the food is quite expensive as expected. The overall stay is just looking at beautiful building and eating, there's nothing much to do here. So we kinda felt we paid too much for not much! Wouldn't recommend this as a getaway resort, there are many other better options with much more to do.

  • 5/5 sarah e. 2 years ago on Google
    Such an amazing place ! Luxurious, elegant, quiet, and beautifully designed. All the staff is lovely, warm and very professional. Food is tasty and refined, and high quality of service. Magical stay in that palace. We will come back to relax and enjoy this atmosphere.

    Evolve Back Resorts I worked here a decade ago as an Associate, yesterday visited as a guest. I expected it would be nice, but it exceeded my expectations and it can be counted as the best day of my life. It was a surreal experience being on the other side for a change. A big THANK YOU to the whole team!!

  • 5/5 Deeksha R. 1 year ago on Google
    Initially the service was slow as there were VIP guests and we felt a little ignored. But when we raised an issue, they went out of the way to make up for it and upgraded us. Property is beautiful. Spa and massage was ethereal. Food was decent.

  • 4/5 ARUNKUMAR H. 2 years ago on Google
    Rooms are amazing. Built on natural texture architecture style they feel awesome. I visited on hot summer and the feel was cool. Esthetically they have created a wonder place to feel the ruins of Hampi.

  • 5/5 Siddhartha S. 2 years ago on Google
    A resort inspired by Hampi's past, very well run the place is. A must stay for those who can afford. Your welcomed with a garland and tilakam which gives you a vibe of royalty. We were then given a refreshing drink along with chocolate filled dates both of which were excellent. The reception and common areas are all passively cooled with high ceilings and water bodies all around. An ode to the intelligent architecture that dotted this land for thousands of years. The rooms are spacious and well laid out, there is a Jacuzzi in the balcony, all well maintained. We had a view of the adjoining zoo which was okay at best. The landscaping in that part of the property was lacking. There is an infinity pool that looks cool with alongside dining. There is another restaurant which is inside the replica of the Lotus Mahal. Our experience there was underwhelming owing to slow service and a cat that kept roaming around the place. A special shout out to Chef Julius, he went above par to accommodate my dietary requirements which were challenging to say the least 😊

  • 5/5 Manjunath R. 1 year ago on Google
    Luxury at its best, quiet and peaceful. The staff knows how to pamper their guest with warm hospitality. Lip smacking food with personalised preferences. Privacy is utmost taken care of. I am truly delighted. Highly recommended.

  • 5/5 Anagha B. 1 year ago on Google
    Throughout a five star experience. The resort is just fantabulous!! The entire staff, right from front desk to housekeeping, restaurant, Spa, is very polite, friendly and courteous. They engage with the guests and genuinely give their best services. They really make you feel like a royalty. The location of the resort is very serene and peaceful. The rooms are so very well appointed, you can't wish for anything more. They are huge, spacious and beautifully decorated. The moment you step into the resort, you are time machined to 15th century Hampi. You feel as if you are living the glorious history of the place. Evolve back Hampi is once in a lifetime experience that every one should go for!!

  • 5/5 Evelyn C. 1 year ago on Google
    It is the most stunning and luxury resort i have ever stayed. Instantly fell in love with the resort with its architecture and the warmth of its people. The room was so huge and comfortable and i am amazed and super supportive of being eco friendly. The cotton blanket is soooo comfortable much better than normal hotel that i felt embraced covering it. It was so comforting that they have water filter in each room so we dont have to worry about drinking water and water wastage (if plastic bottles are used). Their rubbish bins are lined with cloth instead of plastic bags. All the small details impressed me. The resort offers so much corners for guests to explore. I wish i had more time. The Spa was great and i love the souvenir shop which support the local community. I would love to go back to the resort in the future. All staff are so warmth, polite and friendly. This resort is designed specifically for couples in mind. For other kind of social group, it may be a little awkward.

    The most gorgeous stay! A palatial property with all the amenities and more. They take care of the tiniest details. Our concierges Ankita, Ibrahim, Musthappa, Yuvraj did a great job with decoration and arranging everything so pretty for my husband’s birthday 👍 highly recommend

    My brother and I stayed at Evolve Back Hampi for 2 nights and loved everything about it! This place is located in a beautiful setting, surrounded by lush greenery and a serene atmosphere. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. Our accommodation was spacious, comfortable, and well-appointed with all the amenities we needed. The food was absolutely delicious, with a great variety of options to choose from. We also enjoyed exploring the nearby attractions, which were conveniently located just a short distance away from the resort. Overall, our stay at Evolve Back Hampi was an unforgettable experience.

    Evolve Back is a very beautiful property which has Royal touch to each corner of the space.The architecture and the stay was luxurious, Room was exemplary. The breakfast was amazing and the staff Awanish took care of us at the breakfast counter and was checking with our preferences. Dinner was also great with N no of varieties. overall we had a best experience.

  • 5/5 Iqbal K. 1 year ago on Google
    This is the second Evolve Back property that we have stayed in. And we came away super impressed. The resort is a class apart in terms of its architecture & beauty. The staff (be it the GM Mr Joydeep or Ms Ankita or housekeeping) took amazing care of us. Room was impeccable and dinner at both restaurants was great. I would have loved a bit more variety in breakfast but everything that they had in breakfast was amazing. Pool was the highlight of our stay here. It’s a good sized rectangular pool - ideal for swimmers.

  • 4/5 Shwetha P. 1 year ago on Google
    We stayed at the property for two nights and felt like royalty staying in a palace. The quiet starry nights were so beautiful it was a real bliss. Some staff members were really helpful. Balamma took us around the property and took nice pictures of our family. While we were checking out we had some time so I was roaming near the reception and dining area. In between there is a pool around that there is fungal growth in the floor. I stepped on it without realizing and dipped my leg in water and got my shoes wet. I suggested the staff to clean that as my son was also about to slip and fall there. Later your staff offered to dry the shoes and he did that in 5 mins as we were already leaving. It was a pleasant stay overall. I still feel like it is over prized for the luxury, facilities and activities offered. There are lot of families with children coming there. There are no play areas for children. Maybe a playground and few other activities for children would be good.

    We didn’t stay there as the rooms were too expensive for us but we had lunch there twice. The food is amazing, the service is good. Better not to touch furniture, etc. as everything is very dusty.

  • 5/5 Gopi E. 7 months ago on Google • 1 review
    It was breathtaking view of the hotel... Hospitality was at top notch... Managing as well as working staffs are too friendly and supportive.. The cost spent here is fully satisfied and it's a romantic and private with full safety... Rooms are fully equipped and each place carriers it's own atmosphere. Will feel like not to hatch back from this property. Words can't describe the place...💞. I love it....
