Umaid Bhawan Palace, Jodhpur (Rajasthan)

Delve into the enchanting past of the Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur, the Sun City of Rajasthan. A part of this palace is a hotel owned by the Taj group and the other part is a museum that depicts the history and culture of Rajasthan.

Umaid Bhawan Palace History

After the reign of Pratap Singh, Jodhpur went through a drought in the 1920s. To provide some sort of employment to the locals (mostly farmers), the palace was built by Maharaja Umaid Singh of the Rathore Dynasty in 1943. Explore this Rajasthani palace and its architectural splendor and enjoy a truly royal experience.

Today, the lavish palace is also renowned as a popular spot for royal and private wedding ceremonies and receptions. Along with the Jag Mandir in Udaipur, Umaid Bhawan Palace wedding events are fancied by people all over India.

Umaid Bhawan Palace Attractions:

Umaid Bhawan Palace is one of the most beautiful palaces in the state of Rajasthan. The whole palace is an attraction in itself, however, there are several major attractions inside the palace which shouldn’t be missed out on your next trip to Jodhpur.

Umaid Bhawan Palace Museum

The museum tells about the royalty of the Indian Kings and Maharajas. The museum exhibits the royal and vintage collection of clocks, intricate furniture, arms and weapons, and Chinese vases.

Umaid Bhawan Palace Hotel

Another striking feature of the Umaid Bhawan Palace is its hotel and its services. One can relish the scrumptious cuisines in the most royal form ever and with royal hospitality. However, dining here is a costly affair.

The Trophy Bar

The Trophy Bar in Umaid Bhawan Palace showcases the rich collection of wildlife trophies that were collected back by the kings. One can sip a glass of cocktail or smoke cigar here.

At the Umaid Bhawan Palace Museum, visitors will get to view some marvelous specimens like porcelain wares, memorabilia, glass, stuffed leopards, a flag gifted to Maharaja Jaswant Singh by Queen Victoria, clocks in an interesting windmill and lighthouse shapes and classic cars. Come pay a visit to this grand palace to enjoy a royal retreat!

You can also stroll around the sprawling 26 acres of this royal residence that is just about 5 kilometers from the Jodhpur Railway Station and about 4 kilometers from the Jodhpur Airport. There are no particular Umaid Bhawan Palace timings for visitation.

Vikasyadav's 5 days trip to Jodhpur

Overall experience was great however the hotel at Jaisalmer "The Elite castle" was not upto mark. Doors were not ok additionally bed was broken and washroom was not clean. I have already requested to give me deluxe hotel but the hotel was not even equal to 2 star.

Sreemai's 6 days trip to Jodhpur

"I had a wonderful experience with Back to Holidays. We got good hotel rooms, and Preeti helped us with everything. She is very kind and kept checking on us to ensure we were comfortable. However, the driver was on phone calls almost the entire trip, all 7 days, which made us feel afraid." Had good time in all the places we visited

Narendra's 7 days trip to Jodhpur

Plus points: Planning done and support provided by Mohit was really good. Cab driver Ramkrishna ji was very kind and good person. He is very pention and cleaver driver, knows every point and places. Also he suggested some good places where we enjoyed local tasty food. Things need to improve - Hotels were not upto the mark except Jodhpur and Jaisalmer.Service and room conditions are not so good. Worst hotel was at Mount abu. Next rank -The Balam in Udaipur. As we paid for 3 star hotels but the services and facilities were like 1 star hotel for these 2 places.

Amrit's 5 days trip to Jodhpur

The overall trip was good apart from some bad experiences. The cab driver was really good and always punctual and took care of comfort of the passengers. Hotels were good as well except one hotel in jaisalmer where i had to change 3 rooms for multiple reason. We found a rat in first room, in 2nd room washroom there were cochroaches and in 3rd room the bedsheets and pillow were dirty as well the previous garbage bag was not cleared. It really pissed of my mind. 2nd things i wanted to talk about that the travel company which has provided cab asked for 500 rs extra just for a site visit which was not under the plan but comes on the way from jodhpur to jaipur. It was hardly a 2km diversion from the main road. And aprt from that i feel the plan could have been done little better. Because most of time went on cab travelling from 1 city to other. I felt either 1city could have been removed or there should have been 1more day added. I covered udaypur, jaisalmer, jodhpur and jaipur in 7days and 6nights. I will suggest to add one more day as 7day is not enough and you need to rush to cover places which is not a good experience. Regarding shopping do your own research because driver might suggest some places which actually might be constlier and first time travellers can easily fall under this.
