When I told people at work that I shall be visiting Bhopal on a trip, they were all surprised. The general reaction was " whats there to see there?". Honestly even I was not sure,my whole idea was to base my self in Bhopal and then visit Sanchi and Bhimbetka, the two world heritage sites.
We( me and my dear wife) took a night train to Bhopal, so that we could reach early morning there and save a day. We had booked Hotel Amer Palace in Bhopal, which is in new bhopal, at MP NAGAR, so one needs to deboard at Habibganj and not at Bhopal station. Its a 5 minute drive for the station.
Honestly I was taken aback by the quality of the roads at Bhopal. We were received warmly at the Hotel and the FDA was very efficient and we we were in our room within 5 minutes.
The room was well appointed, with a king size, comfortable bed, lovely wooden flooring and most importantly clean toilet. The entire experience of staying there was lovley. Great and I shall stress on that part, great food, efficient room service, courteous front desk people and hassle free billing. It was a very good experience and shall like to stay here whenever I am at Bhopal. Please visit Sanchi and Bhimbetka, they are gems.
Room Tip: Go for royal deluxe/ standard rooms
