“An oasis of beauty in a lost town”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 February 2011

we a family of four stayed there. Excellent location right next to the lake, the rooms are big spacious with large windows having a great view across the lake. The interior decor is all antique (except the TV ).It actually feels as if you are the maharaja"s guest in the palace and not staying in a heritage hotel. The staff though not very effecient, but is very courteous and makes you feel at home. It is an ideal place to stay if you want to break your journey between Delhi and Udaipur. It is also the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of city far from the madding crowds.

“Truly a place attempting to preserve its long heritage”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 October 2010

Our car broke down on our way from Jaipur to Ajmer, its a dampener on any road trip, but we happened to wonder along to this great heritage hotel which made it all worthwhile.

Phool Mahal Palace is off the beaten track & is fabulously located alongside the Fort of Kishangarh & on the banks of the Lake therefore convenient for sightseeing.

The rooms although rich in heritage have only basic amenities & moderate comfort. I recommend this hotel in case you are not to picky about creature comforts & looking for solitude & want to experience a bit of the Rich Indian History.

“Aa great palace but an average hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 July 2010
2
people found this review helpful

The hotel is build near the Kishangarh fort and a lake wich makes it a best location to stay. But the hotel is lacking in management, there is no good service, no accountability of services. Food is ok, we can't get the variety of good food there. The rooms are very spacious and clean & the bathrooms are Kingsize with all the fitings and the changing room, which is great.
It has a empty swimming pool and a garden for a small walk.
Durbar hall used as a lounge and we had evening tea at adjoining terrace which had a great view.
Overall it is a great palace but an average hotel.

“Quaint, but what a tragic place!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 May 2010

The Phool Mahal Palace is in a stunning location and the building itself is worth a visit. The rooms are, however, run down and less than clean. The one room they seem to use for their sparse visitors is attractive but tatty and the bathroom had not been cleaned when we arrived. Much shouting accomplished this, but spotless is not a word I would use to describe the result. A walk in the garden showed an empty and broken-down swimming pool guarded by growling dogs. We retreated pretty fast!
The hotel is badly let down by its amateur management- a friend of the owner- and the lack of training of the staff who are pleasant and willing but inefficient and chaotic. We were the only guests and dinner, pre-ordered but none the better for that, was served in a huge dining room to the constant tuneless wailing of a local singer which summed up the atmosphere totally! It improved when he was belatedly joined by a tabla player.
Nevertheless It is worthwhile to visit the hotel to see the fort and village, just don't get your hopes too high and accept the place for what it is.

“Blissfully quiet and peaceful”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 February 2010

We stayed for 2 nights and were treated like royalty. Our room overlooked what in rainy season is a lake, but what was mostly market gardens when we were there. This gives it a bucolic feel, and a great quietness except for the voices of farmers and the cries of birds . The rooms, which were decorated by the Maharajah's wife, are lovely. The food was very good, and overall the service was impeccable. We were a bit worried that there would not be enough for us to do there (we were the only guests) but the staff took us on a nature walk, and the manager showed us around the superb old fort and the old town, which was interesting, and without the hassle of Pushkar where we had spent the previous night. This really is a lovely place to stay - and well worth a trip from Puskhar or Jaipur.
