Luxurious, personalized and quaintly charming... this is a place you want to keep going back to. I spent a weekend with my family and all of us just couldn't get enough and some of us decided to dismiss the plan of visiting Mandu altogether and spend all our time at the property! Even though it's very luxurious, it isn't palatial... More

Tucked in the middle of nowhere. You need to fly into Indore, and then drive to Ratlam. On the way you'll be in Dhar. The traditional welcome, and proactive Manager ensured her staff were always welcoming us to the palatial environment. Enjoy the Palace, its all yours.

Stayed with my family for a night at Jhira Bagh, a beautiful heritage property in Dhar, near Indore. I didn't think that weekend getaways could be awfully close and awesomely hospitable. What an interesting property. A very elegantly kept place, that also looks and feels extremely warm and familial. The staff went out of the way in their endeavor to... More

We visited in Feb. 2013 and loved the setting and Palace, evocative of a past era and of the cultured family who lived in it. But the manager was not pleasant or welcoming. When, because of unrest in the neighboring town of Dhar, our guide--highly educated and professional--was forced to return to the hotel to ask for a room, she... More

Atmospheric and oozing character - large grounds to roam around in (replete with temples and a vintage bus!) and grand rooms. Staff is very welcoming, friendly and attentive. Highly recommended stay - a hidden gem!

Don't come here for the height of luxury and fashion. This is an old palace last decorated over 60 years ago. Situated in the depths of the country, Jhira Bagh is quiet and calm and peaceful and we loved it. Service is perfect and the food lovely. A perfect choice from which to visit Mandu.

To be fair, I must start my review by heaping a load of compliments onto its staff. The dining room staff, especially. They pay attention to your likes and dislikes and never deviate from them. Upon being told that my husband was a vegetarian, meat was never placed in front of him. Knowing I adored yogurt, yogurt was always offered... More

The Jhira Bagh Palace is by far the best hotel for miles around, in fact it is really the only hotel for miles around! Whilst Indore is undoubtedly an interesting city with many hotel options; if you want to visit the exceptional ruined city of Mandu then the Jhira Bagh Palace must be the choice as it is much nearer...

We spent two nights at Dhar located a few hours from Indore. Jhira Bagh Palace is an ex palace built in art deco style (now renovated) - and converted into a hotel. The rooms are spacious with excellent linen and ensuite facilities. Located within farms, the property is run well by charming staff, the food is excellent. They have a... More
