Provider-sourced guest reviews.
Everything was great. Jassu the manager looked after us so well and gave us some fantastic recommendations. Amazing location and the view from the roof terrace was stunning.
オーナーのジャスさんはとても親切で 私たちの拙い英語にも辛抱強く付き合っていただき 快適な滞在とお出掛けについて適切にサポートしてくださりました。 過干渉でなく、我々をいつも見守ってくださり とても気持ちの良い旅になりました。 お部屋も非常に清潔に整えられており 3Fのバルコニーからの眺めも申し分なく 中心街からも近いのに騒がしくない 最高の場所でした。 今回は短期間の滞在でしたが またいつか訪れることになるかと思います。 ジャスさん本当にありがとうございました。 バナナもありがとうございました^_^ このページをご覧の皆様、このホテルを強くおすすめします。
特にありません。 強いていえばエレベーターが無い点ですが、 近辺のホテルでは同様だと思いますし、 荷物の運搬はジャスさんに手伝っていただけるので問題ありません。
La posizione è ottima, centrale ma in strada tranquilla, le camere ampie e pulite. Jassu, che gestisce tutto, è gentilissimo e bravo, ci ha anche aiutato con altre prenotazioni di auto e hotel. Tutto veramente piacevole.
Jassu the host was exceptional, polite and helpful. View from top floor room was amazing and better than the photos on the listing, location was great, nearby all the shopping, ATMs, restaurants, City Palace, and short walk to Ambrai Restaurant
TV and fridge didn't work
Our price includes breakfast which was not served
Stanza molto spaziosa e ben arredata. Servizi buoni. Ottima posizione sul lago
Colazione un po' misera, costo piuttosto elevato e senza possibilità di pagare con carta
Exceptionally spotless hotel in a great location. Jassu, the Manager was exceptionally helpful and very friendly and maintained the hotel to a very high standard. Breakfast was as you wanted and made to order. Highly recommend!
Absolutely nothing, just perfect.
The manager of the residence, named Jesus, is an angel. He helps you for all the practical questions that you may have (what to visit; how to book a private driver for the day; book a taxi at a pre-defined fare; where to go for diner;...). Many thanks again Jessu!
Superbes chambres. Jassu s'occupe très bien de nous. Emplacement très proche du lac pour le tour du lac au coucher du soleil.
L'emplacement, le balcon donnant sur la superbe vue du lac Pichola...et l'aide précieuse de Jassu qui sait toujours comment rendre service.
We had a great stay at Raj Niwas. Jassu, who manages the property, was very friendly and helpful. The room was very large and comfortable. The location was perfect, central enough for everything but tucked away so was quiet at night. We’d definitely recommend Raj Niwas to other travellers
We booked the room with a terrace and I think it's probably the best in Udaipur. The view is stunning but Jassu was the best about our stay in Raj Niwas. He is such a lovely man and so helpful organising everything you need. Our 3 days here is an experience we will always remember as a highlight. .
Nothing
This is more of a B&B than a hotel, but the location is spectacular; we had the third floor room (there appears to be only one room per floor, with a terrace on the top floor for breakfast), which has a lovely private terrace with fabulous views over Lake Pichola.
The electric plugs were rather temperamental, and our phones didn't charge very well!
Ja, extrem zentral, aber trotzdem ein Hort der Ruhe, um sich etwas vondem Verkehrslärm zu erholen
Limpeza é verdadeira. A localização perfeita. O café da manhã é ocidental e bom. O único funcionário é simpático e sempre disponível.
Horário de checkout é muito cedo 10:00 o café da manhã vai até as 10:30, não faz sentido.
The location was superb and the staff even better! We were able to go to our rooms at 06:00am as there were no prior visitors at the time, which was great as we haven't slept a minut during our night bus. The host was very helpful at every turn and made our stay great in there. Room was big and beautiful and we slept there rather well, not much traffic noises or so. Breakfast was simple but tasty.
We got the highest room of the three. This was a phenomenal room, very nicely done with colored glass, a nice terrace facing the lake. Everything very clean. Breakfast is served on the rooftop terrace - a great start into the day. The person from the hotel is very nice and gives you recommendations.
Nothing.
Large rooms , good AC. Excellent location
Breakfast could be improved to propose more choices. And lobby needs refurbishment. Definitely
Our room had a beautiful balcony with amazing views over the lake. Our host Jassu was so accommodating and helpful and available 24/7 if required. He gave good recommendations for eating and drinking.
On arrival we were informed we had to pay the full amount in-cash which we had no prior knowledge about. Luckily our rep arranged for a money changer to come to help us.
The location was perfect. The room was so pretty and peaceful. The manager Jassu was very helpful. We had a lovely time. I would highly recommend this place.
Nothing. It was great value for money
Wonderful terrace with a fantastic view on the sunset, spacious bathroom and bedroom very well refurbished, immaculate cleaning and very helpful and disposable staff.
The room was fabulous with a large balcony overlooking the lake. Breakfast freshly cooked to order. It was great!
Fridge plugged in - that's all.
Very close to the city palace, very big and well decorated room, clean . Great experience to have breakfast in the roof near .the lake
In order to get to the hotel need to walk ~400 meters in the crowded streets. A bit expensive for India
Big and beautiful rooms with an amazing location. The receptionist Jassu was extremely helpful throughout our entire stay and we would definitely come back. The breakfast was very nice as well, and it was served on the rooftop with a view of the lake.
Very cosy and clean room. Beautiful decor. Rooftop has amazing views. The service provided is amazing. The manager of the property went out of his way to help us.
None.
Superb location, superb service. Walking distance from the City Palace, Jagdish Temple and the Picchola Lake. Clean and economical. Jassu, the caretaker, helps with everything with a cheerful smile. Excellent view of the Picchola Lake from the king room balcony and from the breakfast tables at the rooftop restaurant. There is a restaurant opposite that serves good food and offers an excellent view of Lake Picchola. Overall, Raj Niwas is great value for money.
There is no elevator. You have to climb the stairs to the king room on the 3rd floor and the breakfast tables above it. This may be hard for some people.
It’s an amazing hotel, small, cozy, right at the lake and walking (5 min) distance to the main attractions. The view from the hotel is stunning. Good breakfast, room is authentic and very atmospheric. Clean, all the amenities. The service is very good, all the requests were accommodated in no time, very supportive and responsible. Good WiFi. Hard to think of any improvements (only maybe cashless payment methods).

This small homestay has only a few rooms and is located right on the main tourist area in Udaipur. Our room was huge, very clean, with a large bay window that gave us a view of the tourist traffic and a glimpse of the lake. Color glass inlays that lit up at night made it very romantic. There was always plenty of hot water. Breakfast is served on the terrace with a wonderful view of the lake. You can choose to have Indian or Continental. The person in charge of the homestay was very nice and attentive and prepared the breakfast to our taste. He even went out of his way to prepare food we could take to our train journey as we checked out very early.
This property is located in the old city overlooking the Pichola Lake. Why pay more for a posh hotel when this place has everything you need? Jassu , the manager, is so attentive and attention to detail is excellent.
I am not a fan of hard beds but then that seems to be very common in India.
Jessu the concierge was delightful and very helpful. Most honest and friendly.
I could feel some of the bed springs but it wasn’t horrible.
The location is the plus point Jassu is the star of the place. Very helpful and friendly. Breath taking views of the lake and very near to the palace as well.
The host was very welcoming and extremely helpful when u have never been to Udaipur or even india. The rooms were beautiful, clean and cool on a hot day. Had a fridge in my room which was a bonus. Jassu was a perfect host and i will definitely recommend him to friends and i will definitely return to his hotel next time. The location is beautiful, peaceful and quiet. No horns allowed in that area. You wont regret staying here. The town is very clean compared to other towns. Jassu recommends you all the right places, tailors so u dont get ripped off but have the best quality. Definitely ask for Shakir the tuk tuk driver. He was so much fun and full of knowledge and i made some new friends in india now.
Everything was perfect. Could not fault anything
Excellent location! Nice view and nice room, quiet. Jassu the host was really nice.
The caretaker Jassu is the best caretaker I have come across during my travels in different hotels/properties. He helps in all ways he can and is always polite and accommodating.Keeps the whole place very clean. The Owner needs to know he is a gem..
Raj Niwas has the perfect location, next to the City Palace. One of the highlights is the welcoming and super friendly Jassu who makes us feel just like we’re at home. Always available for everything and helpful with all our requests. The room was spacious and super clean. Breakfast was served on the rooftop with a beautiful view to the lake. One of the best stays in India. Totally recommend it. 10/10.
Nothing not to like :)
The breakfast was very good and healthy. Jassu made sure your needs were catered for. The personal attention given by Jassu was exceptional. He organised transport and suggested places to shop without being pushy. The place was immaculate due to his diligence. I have never been to a place like it a real gem!
Nothing!
The place is very original. The location perfect. Big rooms and beautifully decorated. Nice views on the lake. And: tThe host Jassu is the best host ever!
Beautiful hotel, close to the lake with gorgeous views from the rooftop. Only 3 rooms, all large and beautifully appointed. The caretaker, Jassu was extremely helpful and attentive, a lovely man. Very clean and quiet.
The location could not be better, the view from the terrace is magnificent, the manager was very helpful and the rooms are beautiful. I loved my stay here.
With a view that it has it is a shame that there is not a comfortable area to sit have a drink and enjoy this view.
Only location
Staff especially jaswant singh jassu He was very arrogant. No manners of talking to customers No service Worst staff I have ever seen. No value for money. ..I will never book this hotel again I was supposed to stay two nights...but he make single day difficult for me
Jassu (the manager) is amazing! Nothing is ever too much of an ask, he gave us lots of advice and recommendations and was always lovely to speak to. The room was the best from our whole trip to India. We loved the terrace, well worth the upgrade if it’s available! The hotel is in a lovely quiet little square with two good restaurants opposite and some lovely local shops. Overall it’s in an amazing position & we couldn’t recommend it enough!
Nothing!
Great location, very clean
Lack of facilities for the price and I had to pay cash
Great room and location. Jassu is an excellent host and manages to run the place single handedly.
The location was perfect! The rooms were huge and very clean. We booked all three rooms for our group. The room on the third level had an amazing terrace overlooking the lake. Perfect for a predinner drink to watch the sunset. Despite being a relatively modern building, it had a lot of charm, with heritage features. We found the staff very helpful. When some of us were unwell Jessu was concerned and offered good advice about what to eat and what to avoid.
It’s difficult to find fault with Raj Niwas but the bed was a little too hard for me. Other than that it was excellent. There was some street noise but nothing that worried us.
Wonderful experience. The hotel is very well located. Lots of restaurants and shops around. Breakfast overlooking the lake is priceless. The room was perfectly clean with an amazing terrace that we would have loved to spend more time on it. Jassu is fantastic, doing everything in the hotel while answering any questions you may have, booking drivers (as everywhere in India, you always need to deal prices), helping with laundry or money exchange, giving recommendations... Also, ask for an Indian breakfast if you feel like it :)
Downside: bed is a quite hard and not very pleasant if you have back problems.
Clean and confortable room, very nice staff
Location, the rooms- large and spacious, and the staff. All the essentials for a lovely stay. The rooftop terrace was private with great views.
Nothing not to like.
Great location on lake, perfect sunset view, beautiful room, thoughtful touches and they really look after their guests well. Breakfast overlooking lake included. Easy walk to everything. Very clean well kept, lovely building, close to attractions, shops and cafes.
Nothing - although as personal preference we found the bed was very hard and not that comfy for us.
Super views and location. Close to great restaurants and a fantastic manager
Bed was rather hard
simple yet tasty breakfast. centrally located opposite the lake Pichola with beautiful views of the lake and aravali mountains. Jassu was super helpful and hospitable...took care of us really well.
The location, the terrace with the view, the kindness of the staff, the size and charm of the room
The clean huge room, bathroom, the location, and above all the charming staff Jasubhai
The only snag is that the taxi cannot come to this property after 9 am, hence one has to to get auto from nearby place . The reception needs to b modernised.it’s very dull
The room is very nice. Clean and well furnished.
The property is a little hard to find. It’s pricey compared to what the going rate for similar properties in Udaipur
Overall nice experience
Hot water / fridge is not working
We have taken the upstairs room with balcony which had nice terrace with lake view on palace. Big room also with nice seating area. Central location nearby city palace
Very small boutique hotel with an amazing view of Lake Pichola. Ours was the King room with a great balcony where was a huge space for seating and enjoying the lake view. The hotel is quite small and has a small but cute rooftop terrace as well. The hotel staff was very responsive, providing us with all the necessary equipment. The hotel staff was very helpful in arranging the tuk-tuk when needed. Breakfast was delicious and had a good variety as well.
Sometimes we had some Wi-Fi issues, but overall everything was good
Nice room, perfect location
Very beautiful and big rooms. Location is perfect as you can walk everywhere. Very nice view. The host is amazing, he let us check-in early in the morning.
The interaction with Jassu is great. He understands all different people and their wishes. Adapting to all. Next door hotel with rooftop breakfast, he calls their waiter to inform them about their guest waiting on the terrace.
A small change in the daily breakfast fruits would be welcome.
location and price
mattress was a little hard for my liking but not totally uncomfortable.
Intimate (3 large rooms), beautifully decorated and well appointed hotel by the lake, with easy access to touristic sites and shopping. the lake view from the room at the top with its large terrace is fabulous. it is only very partial in the other two but breakfast on the rooftop makes up for it. The beds are great and the bathrooms perfect. Jassu, the personable man in charge of running single-handedly the hotel 24 hours a day welcomes and registers guests, cleans (thoroughly) the hotel and the rooms, cooks breakfast, gets up a few times every night to chase barking dogs away, provides tourist information, etc. After 20+ years on the job, he is quite familiar with service providers, restaurant operators and shopkeepers around and is a mine of information and advice for residents.
nothing
location
not very clean. Breakfast was cold and was made in a different location. it was Alu puri no other choice. No juice or drink was offered at breakfast. only one person running the whole hotel and he got full control of the property.
The location is central, on the lake. The room was spacious. The host was welcoming, and breakfast on the roof with lake view was perfect.
we stayed in the king room and the view was incredible. The hospitality of Jassu was great, he was always giving us tips about what to see and asking if we needed anything for our room. Everything was very clean and tidy and room was comfortable. The breakfast served in the morning is great. We would definitely stay here again.
The mattress could use a topper or comforter as it’s very hard, we had great sleeps however.
Clean, comfy guesthouse with lake views from the terrace. Tasteful authentic furnishings. The manager, Jassu, is exceptionally attentive and is happy to take care of your needs.
All was good.
Excellent position and the King suite is worth the additional money. Small, cosy and lovely.
Had to muck around a little with the hot water
the property is right in the lake and has the best views in Udaipur. room has a big balcony for watching the sunset and relaxing. good breakfast and comfortable light room. the staff were very helpful and charming
nothing
Perfect location and amazing views. host Jassu was very helpful and a great guy. Glad to have him as a host.
nothing
Jassu was always there to help with anything that is needed. He is truly remarkable.
It is a little bit pricey for what it has to offer.
Freshly cooked breakfast just like at home, and a stunning view to enjoy eating it.
Raj Niwas is a small but very comfortable Haveli in Udaipur. The rooms are palatial. We only stayed for one night but it was good.
Great location with amazing view on the lake. large, comfortable and clean room. Very warm welcome by Jassu, who made us feel at home and gave us several useful tips on where to eat and what to do.
We loved our room! It is gorgeous, very spacious, clean and illuminated. Staff is amazing - Jassu took such a good care of us.
This is a small hotel with 3 rooms, run by one person. This person, Jassy, is amazing!
The noise coming from the street.
Raj Niwas was a real treasure.We loved the stay ...everything was just perfect.The caretaker Jassu was amazing.He took care of just everything and anticipated all our needs, round the clock.Nothing was too small for him- from organizing our travel to getting us reservations at the best resturants; and all with a smile on his face.His hospitality and warmth made our holiday really special. The location was fantastic and we want to thank you for an awesome stay. Raj Niwas will always be special to me!!!
There was nothing not to like.
Excellent scenic location probably one of the best views in Udaipur and very close to all the locations , excellent staff Mr Jassu who went out of the way to ensure that our stay was comfortable , very clean property , good breakfast.
Almost everything, the property manager Mr Jaswant Singh,.alias Jassu Bhai is exceptionally good who looked after our needs from food to sight seeing and arranging a cab to the airport. He came.at 7am and arranged hot breakfast as I shared the feedback people left on breakfast. He ensured and I enjoyed warm paranthas with Amul butter and mixed pickles, fresh plain curd, veg sandwich, idli and sambar, fresh omelette with tomato sauce and masala tea. He even heated the sambar for us at the rooftop. He delivered his services above and beyond.
Though, it is beyond the control of the property, the uber cars or taxis cannot enter the old udaipur town during business hours, they drop tourists at Chandpole parking. However the Autos are available at INR 50 and in plenty to drop at the door step. Again beyond the control of the property, the walk in not a straight line walk, it is up's and downs and very narrow streets, though I enjoyed this old lifestyle, just alerting others of the situation and surroundings.
Rooms are not lake facing. Not accessible by car. Have to take an auto about a km away. Only 3 rooms ..so no restaurant etc. Breakfast a very basic one was served from somewhere else. Basically the property is not giving all the details.
Excellent property with good service
