Worth just taking the boat to and from the hotel to take in the ambience. Make sure you go late or early in the year, as the lake can dry up in summer before the monsoon. I can imagine that the palace would be a little disappointing without the water and water taxis etc... The hotel is extremely nice, but... more

We spent three nights at the Lake Palace during the last week of October 2009 for our Honeymoon. We had some concerns with the original room allotted to us; upon pointing it out to the management, they almost immediately addressed it in a manner even beyond our wildest dreams. The property, as can be expected, is extremely charming. But we... more

The Lake Palace is AMAZING. I've traveled in a lot of luxury hotels/palaces in India and the Lake Palace will blow your mind. I got engaged here and the hotel helped me plan for everything and executed it flawlessly. We had an awesome dinner for two on the Mewar terrace overlooking the city with a great 20 course menu. I... more

The Taj lake Palace hotel exceeded my expectations, which were already high, and made for an absolutely perfect long weekend. The hotel itself is like a dream, with every room, every common space, every restaurant, amenity dripping with luxury.

The launch was ever ready and the approach to the white marble hotel floating in the middle of Lake Pichola was dreamlike. I... more

We stayed here the night of our wedding and loved our suite. I had always dreamed of staying in this hotel and it was just as I pictured. The staff was very kind and gave us a nice departure gift - the rooms was remarkable and clean and we felt very at home. We didn't get a chance to enjoy... more

We stayed here for three nights and it really was unforgettable. From the moment we arrived in the lake side on-shore reception area to our departure were were treated like royalty (having arrived with backpacks didn't bother the staff in the least)! It is an amazing hotel and quiet an experience that I would recommend to everyone, particularly couples. There... more

Words can not really descibe how excited I was when I found out I was getting the opportunity to stay at the Lake Palace...and the property lived up to all my expectations and then exceeded them. It is simply amazing. The service was 2nd to none. The bathrooms are out of this world, with all the luxury you would expect.... more
