Surya Vilas Palace

Our stay at Surya Vilas Palace was truly memorable, and the biggest credit goes to Manoj Ji for his exceptional hospitality. From personally picking us up from Indore Airport to arranging the beautiful Sandhya Aarti and guiding us through the local sightseeing, he took care of everything. He treated us like his own younger brother, making us feel welcomed and cared for throughout our stay. The room on the 3rd floor was spacious, spotlessly clean, and offered a beautiful view of Ujjain from the rooftop. The peaceful atmosphere and homely environment made us feel completely at home, even though we were away from home. A heartfelt thank you to Manoj Ji and his family for their kindness, warmth, and support. I strongly recommend Surya Vilas Palace to anyone visiting Ujjain. I am already looking forward to my next visit to seek the blessings of Mahakal and stay here again. Jai Mahakal! 🙏

Direct interaction with the owner. Very humble and hospitable.

Manoj ji is the host of this homestay, and he has been absolutely supportive, patient, and kind from the moment we were about to reach Ujjain until the time we left for home. He made us feel completely comfortable and cared for throughout our stay. While leaving, my mom said it didn’t feel like we were leaving a homestay — it felt like we were leaving a relative’s home. That truly says everything about the warmth we experienced. When my brother was unwell, Manoj ji personally took us to the hospital and made sure everything was taken care of. Even after checkout, since our train was later, he kindly allowed us to stay a few more hours without any hesitation. He also helped arrange a cab for Omkareshwar and ensured we had tea and everything we needed. The rooms were very neat and clean, and his wife is equally sweet and welcoming. Whenever I get a chance to visit Ujjain again, I would love to stay with the family I found there.

The room was big.

I found two to three strands of hair in the bedsheet. The bathroom taps were passing electricity in small amounts. The property has no emergency exit. It only has a small lift that is switched off at night, no stairs, which means at times of fire you have no option but to jump off the balcony. We had to extend our stay for one more day but we didn't do it from the app. I had checked the price for one extra day in the app and it was around 12k but unfortunately didn't book it from the app. The owner took advantage of the situation and charged 14k. I later asked him for a bill but he did not provide one.
