For years,
Mount Abu was the summer residence of many Indian Princes,
who wanted respite form the stifling summer of their
windless plains.
Hotel The Palace
Bikaner
House was the summer residence of the royal family of
Bikaner. Constructed in 1893 during the minority of
Maharaja Ganga Singhji, the mansion was designed by the
legendary architect Sir Swinton Jacob, under the
supervision of the Council of Regency.
Set on vast grounds amidst tranquil hills, Bikaner house
occupied one of the best locations in Mount Abu and was
visited regularly by the Maharaja and the royal family. In
1962 Maharaja Karni Singhji decided to convert the royal
residence into a hotel.
‘PALACE HOTEL’ as it is now called has been in operation
since then. The Place hotel, today a classified ‘Heritage
Hotel’ still stands glorious as before – a legacy from the
Maharajas of Bikaner.
At the Palace
Hotel your time is spent only in beautiful and peaceful
surroundings. For years our guests have come back to
assimilate the surrounding flora and fauna, to experience
the quiet and solitute, to stroll the gardens, to absorb the
smell of pine and fresh leaves in the air, to sit by the
lake or to simply do nothing.
The Dining
Rooms in the hotel serve traditional as well as continental
cuisine. Should you prefer as many do, the hotel can provide
for delectable barbecues around a bon fire or organise
picnic hampers or meals on the lake side.
