About
Basant Vihar
Basant Vihar Palace Palace was built because of a
‘fanciful desire’ of His Highness Maharaj Sri Ganga
Singhji, a connoisseur of architecture and one blessed
with an artistic sense. It was designed by him to be a
separate pleasure garden adjoining the Zanana bagh
(Royal Ladies’ Garden) of Lalgarh Palace. In 1993, the
House of Bikaji converted this masterpiece of
architecture into a heritage hotel - Hotel Basant Vihar
Palace Palace. An endeavour to offer tourists a true
flavour of history and royal living (as opposed to the
usual star-category hotels), Hotel Basant Vihar Palace
Palace today, remains a ‘garden of eternal spring.’

Hidden away in a secluded area, the hotel is surrounded
by well laid out gardens, fragrant flower beds and
soothing lily ponds. And though it is completely
refurbished from the inside, great care has been taken
to preserve the original character of the rooms - 21 in
all including 3 suites, all of which are fully air
conditioned and fitted with satellite television.
Dining
In the royal kitchens of Rajasthan, food was such
serious business that it was raised to an art form. At
Hotel Basant Vihar Palace Palace, our chefs are trained
to continue this practice. Encouraged to experiment and
excel, they whip up mouth watering Mughlai, Chinese and
Continental delicacies. As for Rajasthani cuisine,
recipes passed down the generations are what we pride
ourselves in.
Conference and Banquet Facilities
Hotel Basant Vihar Palace Palace gives out its lush
green palace garden for exclusive theme parties,
weddings, receptions, etc. Beautifully lit up and
decorated, it forms the perfect setting for all
occasions. And can even offer an ethnic festive
atmosphere with royal Rajasthani sitting, cuisine, folk
music and dance.
Recreation & Health Center
Musicians dressed in traditional Rajasthani outfits
enthrall guests at the hotel with local Rajasthani
melodies played on authentic instruments. The
adventurous can go on camel safaris, the highlight of
which is a day-trip into the Thar Desert - India’s
largest sea of sand |
