Taj Lake Palace in Udaipur, is a luxury hotel that sits exclusively in the middle of Lake Pichola. Set against the backdrop of the majestic Aravalli Hills on one side, and regal palaces on the other, the Taj Lake Palace spreads across a four-acre island – like an almost surreal vision in marble. Conceived by a Mewar prince, Maharana Jagat Singh II, as a pleasure palace in the 18fth-century, has turned into one of the most romantic hotels in the world.
Inside the Taj Lake Palace, scenic courtyards are filled with lily-filled ponds, and indoor spaces with period pieces and extravagant embellishments. The palatial 83 standard Luxury and deluxe Palace rooms with high ceiling, feature marble bathrooms, well-crafted furniture and fabulous views overlooking the lake and the Aravalli mountains. A handful of suites are delicately restored with antique furnishings, inlaid with pearls and gemstones, bohemian crystal lights and intricate miniature paintings.
Despite being set on a small island, the Taj Lake Palace has plenty of facilities, including three restaurants, offering both Indian and international cuisine, and the stylish Amrit Sagar bar, with a wide range of vintage wines & spirits. There is a beautiful swimming pool and Jiva spa offers classic remedies in the backdrop of the stunning Aravalli mountains. The hotel concierge can arrange cultural excursions to explore Udaipur and the surrounding area.
