The Leela Palace Udaipur

Location

On the banks of Lake Pichola, surrounded by the Aravalli Mountains, is the Leela Palace Udaipur Lake Pichola. The hotel is beautifully designed to reflect the grandeur and opulence of the land of Mewar. The hotel's open courtyard, lake-facing pool, and spa combine to create a fairy-tale setting in this 16th century city.

Accommodation

Rooms and suites look out across the tranquil lake waters and are wonderfully decorated with Rajasthani artefacts. The hotel has 80 beautifully appointed guest rooms and suites, with exquisite amenities. Rooms range from a Marharaja Suite, a luxurious presidential style suite, to Premier Rooms, which have lake or heritage monument views. Additionally, the recently introduced "Arq" at The Leela Palace Udaipur are a collection of ultra-luxury villas along the beautiful shores of Lake Pichola, blending contemporary luxury with a deep reverence for Indian heritage. Brass-inlaid wooden floors, traditional Thikri artwork, and rare lapis stones adorn the space.

Dining

The hotel boasts two restaurants: the Dining Room that serves a wide-range of international dishes, and the Sheesh Mahal, which offers al fresco dining, and serves traditional Indian food. Other dining options are eating by the poolside, and destination dining in the palace grounds. For evening drinks, visit the Library Bar, an intimate bar that combines Indian opulence with traditional English design.

Facilities

The hotel offers speciality amenities and services, including a premier butler service, history sessions, shoeshine, dry clean, and valet services. Additional services activities include boat rides, puppet shows, daily yoga sessions, and afternoon high tea in the inner courtyard. There is also a fantastic spa, the Espa, that offers rejuvenating therapies.
