I was very pleased to be able to book, because I'd read so many positive reports of Kankarwa Haveli. I loved the place overall - the feeling of being hidden away yet in the heart of things, the pretty inner courtyard, the stunning panoramic view over the lake to the palaces - this was from the rooftop restaurant. I thought... More

We stayed here for two nights, it was pricey, but for a couple in the middle of a hectic three week tour of India, it was a nice break and relaxing place. We paid extra for a suite with a private balcony overlooking the lake, gorgeous room with traditional decorations, bathroom was huge and clean, everything was working and still... More

I stayed at the Kankarwa last November for 2 nights. My room (at the top right hand side of the first flight of steps) was really lovely with a huge window facing out onto the water with a beautiful view. I was with a group so was able to get into quite a few rooms all of which were individual... More

recently stayed here for one nite. had a room facing the lake on the second floor-room was nice, big size bed for two, bathroom had plenty of hot water and was clean- local woman do laundry under your window in mornings, so some noise is there, nice touch and good for pictures.restaurant was nothing much,had to press the issue upon...

Many good reviews about this place made me book into it, but if I were to visit Udaipur again I would go nextdoor to Jagat Niwas Palace hotel. The Kankarwa is not a bad place, the location is lovely, right on the water and near the city palace. The staff are nice enough, although very playful, untrained and childish. At... More

I had read a lot of excellent reviews of this hotel in guidebooks and was very disappointed with our two night stay. Even the fabulous view from the terrace couldn't compensate for bad service, lack of management and general feeling of neglect. My room had been recently repainted (but bathroom not quite finished, tap dripped all night), but was cold... More

We spent 2 nights starting from the new year eve, price for that couple of nights are a little high. This hotel is in a perfect location with many nice small shops, and is only abt 10 mins walk to the city palace, so is very convenient. It is also right by the lake, so it is quiet enough for...

In comparison to similarly priced and located hotels this one was disappointing. Great views & terrific location but poor food and a customer-is-wrong denial of small concerns (just leave the water running and it will warm up) instead of an apology or explanation (broken system, no power, whatever) which would have been fine

We stayed here for two nights over Christmas 2011. In our four weeks in India, this was by far, the best hotel we stayed in. A family run hotel and the father and son team could not have been more welcoming and indeed helpful. Sit out on the terrace, take in the view while sipping a cool beer or indeed... More
