5-star hotels in Udaipur
A shortlist of 5-star hotels in Udaipur, drawn from palace properties on Lake Pichola and resorts set among the Aravalli hills. It is for travellers who want the city's highest class of stay, whether for a romantic break or a family holiday.
Staying in Udaipur
Udaipur is a city of lakes and palaces, built around Lake Pichola and the City Palace complex on its east bank. Around the water, boat rides pass the island palace of Jag Mandir, while the Jagdish Temple and a vintage car museum sit within the old city. A second lake, Fateh Sagar, anchors a quieter quarter, and the Aravalli hills rise beyond the city, where the forts of Kumbhalgarh and the hill station of Mount Abu lie a few hours' drive away.
Several hotels here stand directly on Lake Pichola, including Taj Lake Palace, The Leela Palace Udaipur and Taj Fateh Prakash Palace Udaipur, all about a kilometre from the centre. Others sit farther out: Bamboo Saa Resort & Spa Udaipur and Fairmont Udaipur Palace near Sisarma, Taj Aravali Resort & Spa Udaipur near the Kodiyat forest, and Raas Devigarh at Delwara near Eklingji. This mix suits couples seeking lake views and short breaks, families wanting pools and open grounds, and business travellers who prefer the city's quieter edges.
