Oberoi Udaivilas Hotel India

There are many ways by which a hotel can be judged, and one of the more popular ways is by rating hotels with stars, ranging from one star, which means that the hotel is simply a tourist hotel, to 5 stars, which means the hotel is a super luxury one. Though there is no single global classification, the most agreed upon rating is the star system. Also, though officially there are no hotels in the world rated higher than 5, every now and then we see a hotel advertising to be a 7 star one. There is no way to check the authenticity of such claims, apart from visiting the hotel yourself and seeing if it really deserves such a rating. All said, however, every now and then we come across such a hotel that you would think deserves more than even 7 stars.

The Oberoi Udaivilas resembles a palace from a fairy tale. Embraced by the Aravalli hills, this hotel offers a land of gardens, fountains and pavilions. Hence, the hotel combines a romantic environment and historic heritage of royal Mewar.

When staying at the hotel, you benefit from both old-world designs and modern comforts. So you will find gymnasium, library, music and video discs and spa services for your recreation and for business there are secretarial services and concierge, and a business center is also available.

In the hotel you will meet abundance of rooms and all are appointed with quality furnishings and with unique design. All rooms have air-conditioning, comfortable beds, spacious windows, desk and attentive room service is also available.

Dinning at the hotel can satisfy even the most demanding traveler from the Aravalli restaurant with terrace and international cuisine, Udai Mahal offering Indian dishes only and Surya Mahal dining room serving Indian, Continental and Asian cuisines to more relaxed atmosphere at Amrit Mahal Bar and the hotel's bar overlooking the Lake Pichola and the City Palace.

The city of Udaipur is one of the most beautiful ones in India, and was voted the best city in the world by Travel + Leisure, USA in its 2009 Readers’ Poll. It is a city of lakes and palaces. Not just normal palaces. Magnificent ones. Reflecting the true glory of the place, the Oberoi Udaivilas is indeed a majestic hotel, and does justice to its praise of deserving 8 stars. At first glance, the hotel itself seems to be a palace. Every inch of the hotel showcases the rich Indian tradition, and the courtyards, fountains, pools and gardens all bear testimony.
