It was third time we came to this city, this hotel and to the same room (301) I think this says it all....... It is absolutely our favorite hotel/room over-all in our more than 10 trips around India. There is something about coming back to a well known place. Every time welcomed by Jassu - always like "coming home". We were here 2017, 2018 and now in 2023. Nothing changed (thank God) LOVE THIS PLACE ❤️

Stayed for 3 nights at the maharaja suite. Small hotel with a few rooms. Large spacious rooms with a large balcony and outside seating area looking towards Lake Pichola. Quite a unique location and lake view rooms. Uniquely decorated rooms with clean linens. Sleep quality was good. Service was good - only a single attendant for all purposes. He tries to help in best possible way. Breakfast options are limited but good in taste and filling. Lot's of restaurants around and many tourist attractions are at walking distance. One can have a great sunset and night light view of the Lake from the room balcony. Recommended for a short stay.

Raj Niwas is a refurbished 3* Haveli comprising of just three rooms, one on each floor. The queens room on first and second floor are spacious but with very limited view of the lake. The jewel is the King's room with a large sitout overlooking the lake pichola and absolutely worth the higher premium it demands. The hotel doesn't have a lift or a restaurant of its own but breakfast is served at the top floor sit out by the caretaker Jaswant aka Jassu who was very helpful and friendly. Hotel is located just a five minutes walk to the three main attractions of Udaipur, the lake palace, Jagdish palace and Bagore ki haveli which hos a folk dance dance show every evening. The only downside was the 1000 am check out policy.. Overall a great stay !

We had 3 nights in the King Suite 18-21st Feb. It was great!! The amazing balcony overlooking the lake is a lovely place to relax - we especially enjoyed it in the early morning when there was a sense of quiet and calm and again in the late afternoon for sunset! The room itself is huge with lots of seating space. Jassu is an absolute star, he takes great care of you the whole time - he gave us breakfast when we arrived early from our overnight train, provided really good local tips and advise and always a friendly smiling face! We would have loved to have stayed a few more nights but the hotel was fully booked. Would 100% stay here on another visit to Udaipur, no where else would live up to it! Highly recommend to all.

Jassu who runs this lovely haveli single handedly made our stay. Not only is the haveli exceptionally well located next to all the sites, but the room (we stayed on top room with the balcony) was gorgeous. Jassu gave great advice and found us a reliable and honest driver to Jodhpur. He made sure we were well taken care of during our stay (i.e. when we ate across the street he made sure the waiters gave us great service, reliable tuk-tuk drivers). I highly recommend to stay here. The owner of the haveli is very lucky to have such a positive, joyful and honest manager who does everything to accommodate his guests.

What first prompted me to book our two rooms at Raj Niwas for my family of five was the decor of the rooms depicted in the pictures & the great reviews. Raj Niwas was the perfect place for our 4 nights in Udaipur for many reasons but the most important one is the quality attention and care that we received from the resident caretaker Jassu. Jassu was there for our every need from arranging horseback riding, dinner reservations, a tuk tuk tour of the city, directions and transportation. He kept our rooms immaculately clean and stocked with amenities as well as prepared delicious breakfast every morning on the roof top deck. He literally made our time in Udaipur a special one. Raj Niwas is a small boutique hotel with 3 rooms, each large & colorfully decorated with huge windows. We stayed in the two queen rooms & the beds were massive! The 3 rooms are stacked on top of one another & connected by a staircase. The King Suite is the top room with its own private balcony looking out onto the lake. If the King Suite is available, I suggest booking it because of the private balcony. However, we were more than pleased with our two queen rooms. The rooms are really light & inviting when the curtains are open. The location of Raj Niwas is great! You can walk to the City Palace, the Jagat Hindu Temple, the traditional dance show & boat rides on the lake. I highly recommend staying at the Raj Niwas. You will not be disappointed with the wonderful care Jassu provides & your accommodations. …

Simple and clean accommodation at Lal ghat udaipur. Best part is the third floor room with private balcony . Balcony overlooks Lake Pichola . You have Jassu to help and is just phone call away. Walking distance to all attractions in old city.

Five of us stayed at this boutique guest house in March. The hotel has only 3 rooms, one on each floor. The top floor has an amazing balcony and view over the lake. The location is great- right on the lake and walking distance to all sights, shopping and restaurants. The rooms are spacious, clean and a beautiful decor. The biggest asset to this place was Jassu, - the manager of the guest house. He was so accommodating and helpful. It made our stay extra special.

Upsides: As many other reviewers have mentioned, the King Suite is absolutely gorgeous and great value for money. The bed was clean and very comfortable. The colored glass, the panoramic views, the balcony, etc made this room an amazing place to stay. My boyfriend and I actually weren't feeling 100% during our stay in Udaipur and spent a lot of our time there just sitting on the balcony and watching the boats. We still had a great time! Staff seemed to just be one guy, so he wasn't always easy to find, but was really great for the most part. He helped us arrange travel to the airport. Downsides: We had no complaints at all about the room, but be aware that you need to pay cash (no credit cards accepted) and that it's a steep walk to the City Palace. Something to note: there is, oddly enough, a bathtub on the balcony. This would have been sort of cool if it was an actual hot tub, but the water pressure was pretty low and it wasn't super clean, since there's no cover. It's also very easy to see into the balcony from neighboring rooftop restaurants, so I wouldn't have felt comfortable being out there in a bathing suit. Not a negative for us, just something to note in case you see it in photos and were booking on the basis of this place having a "hot tub".…
