Beautiful palace hotel at the southern end of the City Palace. We had a lovely room overlooking the lake with a wonderful private patio. An oasis of calm.

This hotel is the actual king’s palace. It is beautiful and well maintained. You do feel like royalty staying here. And it is the perfect location in city center, close to City Palace, shopping, and access to the lake. Would highly recommend!

Lovely hotel/wonderful staff/some refining needed

Lovely hotel and high-touch service. Very nice food and great outdoor dining spot. Spa treatment was very good but a crew was setting up for a wedding and the noise definitely interrupted the tranquility of the massage.

Remember it’s 200 years old. Although this hotel is part of the maharaja’s Palace it is not in the category of a Taj or Shangri-La hotel. Once you have adjusted your expectations you will enjoy this experience. Rahul Paliwal manager at Shiv Niwas Palace Udaipur is worthy of special note. He understood my dilemma of comparing other 5 star hotels to his. He offered to upgrade our stay from Room 10 with mountain views and private terrace to room 6. A very palatial palace suite with study, formal entry, separate sitting room with huge walkin dressing room with very good lake views. Once we experienced this room we felt blessed. If you want to experience living with the current Maharaja and his family and gain a knowledge of life in a palace 400 years ago then you should spoil yourself.

The location of the property is very good, accessible to palace, shopping etc. Staff is very warm and hospitable. However, the rooms need major uplift as compared to its competitors. Breakfast served is not very good, not sure if it is outsourced, it does not seem fresh.

Beautiful property but doesn’t live up to its 5 star status. The staff are very nice but they lack attention to detail. I don’t think it’s value for money. The rooms are big but average, the bathrooms need updating. The views are spectacular though. One thing that I would suggest the hotel is not to ring the guests regarding if we want spa treatments or are we coming for breakfast. We feel very relaxed but would have preferred if we weren’t disturbed at all. The bar is beautiful though and I would highly recommend having a drink there. Food in the restaurant is very good as well.
