Unique Udaipur experience

The hotel is located in the middle of a man-made lake in Udaipur. The Taj group recently renovated the hotel, providing modern amenities while maintaining the romantic charm of this unique location. For dinner one night, we ate on the palace boat while touring the lake that the royal family used over 100 years ago. A rare experience with a first class and very attentive hotel staff.

Unique Quality: The palace is located in the middle of a large lake and commands views of the city and other palace locations.

Maharaja-feeling from dawn to dusk

Already when looking at the Lake-Palace Hotel one seems to be in a fairytale:about 500m distant from the shore in the city center of Udaipur, a small boat is taking the guests to the Palace-Hotel, where you will be greeted with a necklace of flowers and a cold drink.
Conceived in romance, the palace was built in 1746 by Maharana Jagat Singh II, 62nd successor to the royal dynasty of Mewar – believed to be descendants of the Sun God
Everything here seems to be a bit unreal, the palace-rooms, refurbished and functioning now as lobby, library and restaurant as well as the beautiful guest rooms in typical indian style. A very special experience is the palace garden with its many tropical flowers and the restaurant, facing the garden.The whole structure is made of white marble. A special experience the modern swimming-pool with its own small park in lush green colours.
The only thing one has to get accostumed with áre the 1000s of blackbirds, occupying the whole garden from subset to the next early morning, creating an unbelievable noise !

Unique Quality: Unparalleled location in the middle of Lake Pichola, Udaipur

Beautiful women scattered rose petals at our feet!

In October 2004 our only complaint was that the lake was rather low. But that enabled us to race our camels across the lake bed! Most excellent service.

Be sure to take a day trip to the beautiful Jain temple at Ranakpur.

Unique Quality: A beautiful marble palace in the middle of a lake.
