This 1910 former Maharaja’s palace is set in hectares of manicured lawns with many historical heirlooms dotted about the suave interior. Only suites occupy the original palace building, but modern rooms in the long new wing are effortlessly stylish; those on the ground floor have walk-out garden balconies and offer the best value. The Chinar garden restaurant is charming.
Autorickshaws are not allowed past the gate, from where it's a five-minute walk to reception.
