Umed Bhawan Palace, Kotah

The hotel is a part of the Kota Palace and it is very nice with courteous staff and spacious rooms and inside lawns. The rooms have an additional dressing area as well. The bathrooms are also big but lack an air dryer and other modern bathing space but that's fine...it's part of the old world charm.

The breakfast spread is very sparse. This aspect is certainly the hotel can look into. The other amenity lacking is a pool..much required in the sweltering heat.

Excellent cleanliness , very delicious food and very polite staff, enjoyed the short stay.

When we drove up to the hotel we just thought, what a great place. Greeted well, taken to our rooms through the lovely garden courtyard. In one room we requested twin beds, which only had a double bed, and they accommodated us in a flash with a twin bed room. Bedrooms may be a bit dated but not an issue, they were clean, comfortable and had all the necessary amenities Hotel was very clean We noticed they had a lovely room with a full sized billiard table. They allowed us to use the table and the room, which is fairly historic. In the evening we had a drink in the bar, a bit dated but again not an issue, part of the charm. Barman very good. Meals in the restaurant were quite good and enjoyable. Breakfast likewise.

all good

Beautiful house, almost everything was perfect, except for one thing that dampened my enjoyment. I was planning to visit a nature reserve (valley with a waterfall) 40 km away. After inquiring beforehand, the reception confirmed that everything was accessible. Upon arrival, I was stopped at the entrance by forestry officials. They told me the access was closed. I had to accept it, so I had been given incorrect information. My only option was to return home. No apology or compensation from the hotel.
