Udaipur hotels near Jag Niwas

Pros: We visited Udaivilas to give a surprise to my son on his 20th birthday and they left no stone unturned to make this visit a memorable trip for him. We were even upgraded to a room with a semi private swimming pool. I would like to thank the management Mr Amit Kaul(GM) and the staff, Mr Aditya Mehrotra, Mrs Nairwita Basu, Mr Debanshu, Mrs Payal, Mrs Nandita, Mrs Savita, Mr Soham just to name a few, and also everyone who worked behind the scenes to make sure nothing went wrong during our stay. The breakfast was overwhelmingly tasty and the spread bounteous. Even the in-room dining service is worth experiencing. Overall the entire experience was AMAZING, and I would give my highest recommendation to everyone who wishes to experience the amazing hospitality and Oberoi Udaivilas.

Pros: The location.....

Cons: The location of the property is the only plus point , but the cost that HRH group charges is not worth it , they are costlier then a five star hotel & actually speaking they don’t even have a swimming pool in their property , apart from that the rooms are average as they need serious attention of renovation & the worst part was the bathrooms we were having 4 rooms with us & all the rooms had some or the other issues in their bathrooms ....

Cons: We were a family of 6 and had booked 3 rooms. Each room had some or the other issue; noise from the construction, drainage issue, smell in one of the toilets. However the staff was very helpful and tried their best to help us. After paying a premium you don’t expect to face these issues.

Pros: Location is perfect, rooftop restaurant has excellent food and the view is spectacular. Good value for money too. This place is perfect.

Cons: There’s a lot of tiles and between people getting in and out of the pool and staff watering plants it gets quite slippery. I slipped and saw a few others too so be careful walking around in flip flops. Some locals outside desperate to drag you into their shops but that’s the usual in Udaipur unfortunately.

Pros: This hotel is probably one of the best places I have ever stayed. The setting overlooking Lake Pichola is just stunning and it’s in a great location for exploring Udaipur (City Palace was only a 5 min walk away). The staff were so friendly and accommodating, and the restaurant for breakfast and dinner was great. I will definitely be coming back.

Cons: My stay was too short!

Pros: Location, comfort, cleanliness

Cons: Service to be specific at the restaurant! Can be more proactive

Pros: Fantastic hotel with a nice view on the lake from the rooftop. Very calm and very clean. Good breakfast buffet. The staff was really nice and helpful. The hotel is really close to city highlights (palace, boat tour...)

Pros: Lovely room. Great ambience. Hotel is well maintained.

Cons: Only one con...wife is almost non existent. I was ok with that, not everybody will be though.

Pros: Beautiful setting. Great location

Pros: The property is right on the lake pichola. The view from this place is amazing. Great hospitality and food. This hotel is perfect location to stay in Udaipur as it is near all the local shops, boating, palaces. The right stay for udaipur.

Cons: Nothing that I did not like. Great stay.

Pros: Beautiful view of lake from restaurant area. Changed rooms at request which was nice of management. Real boutique hotel and was able to relax. Staff even allowed me to conduct a early morning (5am) conference call in their office. Restaurant food was delicious.

Cons: Swimming pool was cold.

Pros: Situated on lake Pichhola is the only saving grace . But then it’s situated in the most congested and dirtiest place I have ever been to , that is the Lal Ghat . So it cancels out .

Cons: Wow ! Where do I even start . I can write a whole essay on how Udaipur in itself is a tourist trap . I will keep it here only to hotel and it’s staff . 1) the most untrained staff I have ever come across in my travelling experience . This is supposed to be a heritage haveli , and we were treated as if we are staying in some dingy drive by night hotel . Homestays are better off than this. 2) the rooms we were given is not even in the haveli , please advertise that properly . 3) food is just below average , we ate mainly outside , but again same untrained and unfriendly staff outside as well . As if they are running some dhabas, heck even dhabas have courteous smiling staff . 4) Now get this !! The restaurant you see in the images , the roof top one , it’s not for in-house guests alone . Foreigners coming from outside are given preference over in-house guests , that too Indians . My stay alone costs more than the tips you expect from them . Stop this firang pleasing and treat everyone equally before you fall face first .( Goans have learnt it the hard way , I have been going there from ages , so I know what I am talking about ) 5) at the time of writing this review even after staying for three nights , I don’t know anybody’s name over there . This has never happened to me in South . Please come to this part of India to learn what hospitality is . Overall a pretty dirty place . Avoid Udaipur altogether . They have ruined it and they know it . Hence the indifferent attitude towards visitors . Because they know we won’t return anyways .

Pros: Location is spot on.

Cons: Breakfast menu choices were less.

Pros: Food was better than the well talked about 1559AD & Raaj Mahal.

Cons: Damp smell in the room.

Pros: Nice food, good location and very hospitable staff

Cons: Nothing in particular

Pros: Location and property

Cons: Housekeeping, breakfast

Pros: The view was very nice and the building. The location is also good!

Cons: The service was bad and expensive for what it is. The breakfast was very bad, for a 5 stars hotel they don’t even have proper coffee and not enough choice for westerns! Only indian food! The change rate was very high. We tried to book a taxi from the hotel and the price was just insane comparing with the prices we paid from outside.

Pros: The location is wonderful, right on the lake.

Cons: Hotel that pretends to be luxurious, but is not up to it. We booked two nights, unfortunately. The facility is nice but the cleaning is horrible. As you can see in the photos, the bed was very dirty. The sheet underneath was stained with shoe prints and the pillowcases had circles of wine and coffee glasses. I immediately called the front desk and they sent two boys to change sheets. But at that point I was horrified by the thought of having to stay in that room. The manager, whom I had to call, offered us other rooms and finally gave us the suite. I thank him for his kindness, but for the price they charge you, this situation is unacceptable.

Pros: the location of the hotel is very good, the staff at the reception desk & restaurant is very responsive. the breakfast buffet has a lot of variety of food & beverages.

Cons: the restaurant & the room corridors can be very noisy and messy, especially when a lot of guests are residing. the housekeeping was not upto the mark - our linen was shabby & in-room coffee maker were stinking, the TV was not functioning properly.

Pros: Beautiful location and the staff was very good. Breakfast had good options and live counters. Autorickshaw are parked outside for local transport.Great views of the fatehsagar lake make you every morning refreshing.

Cons: The property is bit old and the toilet flush was not working.The operator was informed but it was not corrected until we are back in the room and had to call again.

Pros: It was a serene property by the lake, the restaurant and pool are by the lake face and offer a calming experience

Pros: staff was great, breakfast was amazing

Cons: Didn't get anything to not like

Pros: Water front view is amazing. Breakfast is good with both veg and non-veg options. Some stuff in hotel works while some stuff such as 'water' which is a basic necessity goes out of order when we want it.

Cons: We do not pay hefty amount only for view. Also they say that policy doesnt allow you to sit in public areas after certain period of time.
