Our Inspector's Highlights

  • Corridors to guest rooms showcase 450 handcrafted stone columns, many finished in Ghutai, a regional finishing technique. Stones are blended with egg white and tamarind to create a creamy, ivory-like glow. Each column takes a month to craft, and the smooth stucco of lime, plaster and crushed marble cures for a year.
  • A design highlight of the Udaipur hotel is the Candle Room, a miniature glass palace crowned by a 25-foot-high dome. The space is decked with intricate Thekri, a centuries-old Rajasthani craft where molten glass is shaped, coated with metals and set into delicate patterns. A spectacular effect is created by flickering candles placed on a central table.
  • The Oberoi Udaivilas offers three standout dining experiences: Suryamahal, with a ceiling that mirrors the day sky; Chandni, which sits under a night-sky canopy; and Udaimahal, an elegant space serving traditional Rajasthani and North Indian dishes.
  • An exclusive floating lunch unfolds aboard a boat on Lake Pichola, set against the stunning backdrop of the City Palace and Jagmandir. The journey begins with an Oberoi signature beverage and canapés, followed by a curated main course and desserts, and concludes with rare teas and gourmet coffees, brewed fresh on board.
  • The spa's signature offering is the Romance of Udaivilās Rejuvenate, a traditional Ayurveda therapy inspired by centuries-old principles of mind-body-spirit balance. Expert therapists use foliation techniques to enhance the absorption of healing Ayurvedic oils, while invigorating strokes tone the body and detoxify internal systems.

The Rooms

  • Premier Rooms spanning 600 square feet are furnished with a king-size bed, a writing desk and plush bay-window seating for slow mornings. A spacious marble bathroom opens onto your own private walled courtyard.
  • Premier Lake View Rooms are among the hotel's most distinctive offerings, with access to a semi-private infinity-edge pool. Step onto the patio, and Lake Pichola and cascading gardens pan out like a postcard.
  • Each of the sumptuous 1,150-square-foot Luxury Suites promises villa-style privacy, with a 32-foot outdoor infinity pool and a tented pavilion that turns every meal into an alfresco occasion.
  • The Kohinoor Suite is the crown jewel with two bedrooms and a living room with working fireplaces. A private pool overlooks Udaipur's most iconic panorama.
