Shiv Niwas Palace, Udaipur

If you are planning to travel to Rajasthan, Shiv Niwas Palace in Udaipur is one of the best heritage hotels in Rajasthan. A crescent adorning the southern end of the Palace complex, the Shiv Niwas Palace was originally Maharana Fateh Singhji's residence. The rooms around this awe-inspiring courtyard were used as a place for entertaining personal guests. It was the vision of Maharana Bhagwat Singhji Mewar, which led to its conversion into a luxury hotel. This is now categorised as a Grand Heritage Palace as it has been restored to its original pristine glory.

Elegantly appointed suites with private terraces, choice Indian and continental fare, a friendly pool-deck, a treasure-trove of souvenirs and precious gems, a Scottish Band, this former royal guest house has all this and more to make your visit memorable when you travel to Udaipur.

It is noteworthy that a state-of-the-art sewage and recycling water treatment plant ensures efficient disposal of all waste products and use of water.

The Grand heritage hotel encourages the planting of trees and the conservation of those already existing in and around the City Palace complex.
