Overall I really liked my stay at this hotel. The location is nice, and very peaceful. The restaurant is good. The owner Francine is so helpful and kind. The dog, Roxy, is so sweet. But the thing that won me over with this hotel is the shower. The pressure was amazing and it was always hot. This hotel is a... More

My stay at Kumbha Palace was great! The location is perfect. The room was very basic but with everything I needed. However hot water was hard to find and the bathrooms were in need of a serious facelift. The restaurant is absolutely fantastic! I had 3 great dinners here - the food was fresh and super tasty and very cheap!... More

Very nice location, great garden to rest on the afternoon or have breakfast if you don't want to have it on the nice rooftop (view on the bakc of the City Palace and Udaipur's surroundings). Clean rooms, quiet and hot shower. Very helpful and nice staff. We really enjoyed our stay there.

The hotel is situaded in the middle of the old centre of Udaipur. It's nearby the City Palace, When you are... More

I have no real complaints about the place. I think perhaps there were issues with the hot water, but that's India... Room was lovely and clean, building is in a great location, just up a small alleyway from the main drag in Udaipur. Management is lovely. Staff is just ok. Good budget option.

Our cozy little room was very neat, clean and comfortable. It was one of the best value places we have stayed in. There is no fuss and the management is very smooth and efficient. There is also a free pickup from the train station. The rooftop offers a nice view of the city palace and the city, however the food... More

On first impressions, this is a lovely place. Clean, nicely decorated, with good rooftop restaurant and you can see the palace walls from the top. Saying that, we never received a warm welcome. The staff seemed to be grumpy and bored. The food was good but no service with a smile. We were in room 205 (i think) and it... More

We know that this is a budget option but here's why we disliked this place so much. Most of it is copied and pasted from emails that passed bewteen us and the owner after we left in disgust. We had planned to stay several nights plus a further 2 nights at the ranch where my wife was to celebrate her... More
