This sympathetically restored 14th century fort is just a 30 minute drive from Ranthambore National Park and offers guests the chance to experience the beauty of rural Rajasthan while enjoying the serene luxury of the palatial fort, landscaped grounds and the Aravalli Hills which are a scenic backdrop to this sensationally well-restored heritage property. When not exploring local villages or tracking tigers, the two pools, aerial yoga pavilion and extensive spa offer plenty of potential for relaxing body and mind. The dining options are equally well-curated, with creatively conceived menus that combine Rajasthani and Indian cuisine with international influences and use locally produced seasonal produce for the freshest flavours.
The 48 suites are spread throughout the various wings of the fort, and honour the original heritage of the building but add a dash of contemporary design to create fresh, elegant spaces. Handmade mattresses and sustainable bathroom amenities combine with state-of-the-art technology to create a relaxing haven. Ranging from 70 sqm to 279 sqm, the suites are spacious and bright, with separate living spaces in keeping with the regal ambience of the fort.
