Why we love it

"A 27-key haveli on the ghats of Lake Pichola"

This is the real old Udaipur. Not a resort on the ring road, but a haveli built onto the ghats of Lake Pichola, a few steps from the City Palace, that traces back to 1834. Breakfast at Jharokha is taken beneath a ceiling of thousands of tiny mirrors, its arched windows open onto the water. Sunset belongs to the Chandni rooftop, where the tables face the Lake Palace and the Aravallis turn pink across the lake. Twenty-seven keys, a lakefront spa, an in-house bakery, and complimentary boats and tuk-tuks to carry you into the lanes.

Amenities

  • Jharokha — lake-view restaurant with window seats over Lake Pichola
  • Chandni — rooftop al-fresco restaurant
  • Global Bar (premium spirits, signature cocktails, wines)
  • Rooftop plunge pool with lake and City Palace views
  • Lakeview Spa on the lakefront
