Would I stay at this location
again:

Absolutely!
It is special. Unique. To be savoured.It is like travelling back in time and having your own personal staff. Who are lively and keen to please you.It is huge and secluded and romantic. We ate on the terrace with the cook in attendance in the corner. And they gave us a complimentary camel safari the next morning. To be recommended. The village is non touristy. The inhabitants were interested in us but not trying to take advantage by selling. All was magical but if you are fussy about frills and flounces then you will feel adrift. If on the other hand, you appreciate character, authenticity and flavour, you will not be disappointed. We thought we would never get there and were anxious about industrail area we passed through but all was more than worth it!! It was much easier on way out following day. Wholehearted recommendation.

"Room and breakfasst were excellent,we think we were upgraded: we got a room with a niece terrasse. But we were very disapointed by the dinner we had at the palace restaurant(food quality very poor)"

  5/5  Posted by PROF THEO C HAUPT, South Africa in October 2007
"INCREDIBLE LOCATION WHICH OBVIOUSLY AFFECTS THE PRICE OF DINING, ETC. BUT IS IT NOT ALL ABOUT LOCATION ULTIMATELY. WOULD LOVE TO SPEND MY HONEYMOON HERE. COST OF TAKING A CAMERA TO THE CITY PALACE IS RIDICULOUS. BREAKFAST WAS SPECTACULAR. DEFINTELY ONE OF MY FAVORITE PLACES TO VISIT AGAIN."

"really unique romantic place in a historic area with great managment"

  4/5  Posted by MR. HOW, Brendon, Australia in July 2007
"A great hotel, in a convenient location in Udaipur, within walking distance to everything. The rooms were large, clean and tastefully decorated in keeping with the ambience of the palace. It was dissapointing that additional money was required to make the most of other facilities provided within the palace complex such as the City Palace Museum and Lake cruises. Lots of character in the bar area, well worth a visit for an evening night cap, to see some of the beautiful inlaid glass in plaster. The only dissapointment was that the restaurant and the room did not have a view of the lake."
