Umaid Bhavan hotel is in the list of top 10 hotels in the world.
It is build by Maharaja Umaid Singh in 1929. It can be seen from a far distance as it is situated on a small hillock in the mid of Jodhpur city, which give it an awesome look. It looks somewhat like Tajamahal and it's look gives a feel of beautiful palace of King.
In earlier times it was fully owned by Maharaja Gajsingh the son of Umaid singh but now it has been devided into three parts. In one part it has the private residence to the royal family of Gajsingh and another part which is the central and major portion of the palace is converted into hotel which is run by Taj group of hotels . And a small portion of it is made open to the visitors as museum. If you want access to the whole palace you need to book a room which cost approx. 30,000/day.
It is a Great Architectural piece worth to visit
