A Mughal-Inspired Palace Preserved on the Lake

Jag Niwas and the Mewar Summer Retreat

Commissioned by Maharana Jagat Singh II between 1743 and 1746 as a summer retreat for the Mewar royal family, the island palace was later transformed into a heritage hotel in 1963 by Maharana Bhagwat Singh Mewar and is now operated by Taj Hotels.

Marble Courts, Terraces and Gardens

The design retains the original island-palace composition through Rajnagar marble, Mughal-influenced planning, column-lined courtyards, pillared terraces, fountains and garden elements. Multiple wings and ceremonial spaces organize the property around its historic royal identity.

A Floating Palace Arrival

Access by boat across Lake Pichola makes the arrival part of the architectural experience. The isolated island setting, palace circulation and formal lake approach distinguish the property from a conventional land-based hotel.

Palace Rooms and Individually Styled Grand Suites

Three Historic Accommodation Categories

The accommodation comprises 65 rooms and 18 grand suites, including 25 Luxury Lake View Rooms, 32 Palace Rooms and 18 Suites distributed through the historic palace structure.

Lake and Garden Outlooks

Selected accommodation categories look towards Lake Pichola or the gardens. The rooms and suites retain an individual palace character, with carved wooden furniture and silk textiles contributing to the heritage setting.

Palace-Style Bathrooms and Details

Room-level features include bathrooms with bathtubs and showers, while Forest Essentials toiletries are provided in the accommodation.

Royal Indian Dining Above and Beside Lake Pichola

Neel Kamal is the Indian specialty restaurant, serving royal Udaipur cuisine alongside North West Frontier and other Indian dishes. It is described as an evening-only fine-dining venue.

Jharokha Lake Views and Bhairo Rooftops

Private Dining by Royal Butlers

The hotel’s Royal Butlers can arrange private dining in guest rooms or elsewhere throughout the property, adding a bespoke format to the formal restaurant and bar offering.

Lake Views, Courtyards and Palace Water Features

Swimming and Spa Pools

Jacuzzis and Palace Open-Air Spaces

Two jacuzzis complement the water facilities. Courtyards, pillared terraces, fountains and gardens preserve the open-air character of the historic palace and provide spaces around the island property.

Evening Folk Performances Under the Stars

The property’s outdoor leisure programme includes evening folk performances under the stars, connecting entertainment with the palace’s cultural setting.

J Wellness Circle and Royal Retreat Facilities

Lake Pichola at Udaipur’s Historic Core

The Lake-Palace Heritage Landscape

Near Ambrai Ghat and the Lakefront Zone
