Very nice heritage hotel. Stayed for two nights in November 2012. This is a zero frills hotel which is all about location and feel. In these two points it really delivers. It's within a few minutes walk of the City Palace and the Jagdish Temple. Food is served on top of the building with a very romatic view of the... More

Lovely haveli down by the lake. The rooms are spacious and look just how you imagine a haveli should. The restaurant/bar on the roof has incredible views out over the lake - definitely recommend a sunset beer. The staff were really helpful too. Easy walking distance to all the sites. Highly recommend it!

Wonderful location on the waterfront overlooking the lake palace, and just down from the main Palace. Fabulous views from the rooftop. As it's away from the main streets it's nice and quiet but that does make it hard for drivers to get to. We had a ground floor room looking out over the lake: the room was on the small... More

It was a pleasure to stay at Kankarwa Haveli. This heritage hotel offers one of the best views over Udaipur, and the location is great- just a few minutes away from the Old Palace. The staff is very corteous and helpful, the food is good and there is a charming common area where guests can mingle, read or relax. Great... More

Mu daughter and I concluded our visit to ragahstan in udaipur, and we couldn't have chosen a better place to stay. Our driver hated the place because of the location- the hotel is situated on the lake and getting there involves driving throughout narrow allies in the midst of the old city. We were lucky enough to get a room... More

This haveli specifically likes to offer a window into a past way of life in India. If you expect creature comforts, don't come here. To western sensibilities, there are a few missed opportunities at this hotel - the opening hours of the rooftop restaurant are very limited, for instance. But you will see amazing architecture, be inspired by the views... More

Nice old haveli, with beautiful rooms and a great roof-top terrace from which the view is simply AMAZING: view over the lake and the palace. The breakfast is very tasty and the rooms are spacious and comfortable. The location of the hotel is ideal: in the middle of the old town and hence walking distance to the palace.

Nice hotel but could be cleaner. Needs more attention to detail. Dirty toilet and bathroom needs a good scrub. Lovely owners. Good breakfast, do not buy anything in the shops next to it, you will be cheated. Do go to Mary for cooking lessons.

Stayed one night in January 2013 with family in two rooms, disappointed relative to TA reviews and LP write-up, good lake-side location but spoilt by very poor resturant service, unclean tables in rooftop resturant (breakfast served on tables not cleaned from the night before) and moderate / small rooms, clean but small. We asked for two rooms together - not... More

We did not stay at this Hotel but came mainly to have dinner at their Vegetarian Restaurant on the Terrace. We had a very delicious Thali which we enjoyed very much. We would have come back the next day if we had stayed longer in Udaipur. The view of Pichola Lake with the Palaces all lit up at night was... More
