We were short on time so didn't visit the palace from inside as it houses a museum and we had seen many museums on our journey to Jodhpur from Jaipur.
The building itself was built less than a century ago which is evident from the british influence on its architecture. Perched atop a hill, youhave gorgeous scenic views of the surprisingly green Jodhpur city.
There is an entry fee to go visit the museum which is 100 rupeed for foreign nationals and 30 for Indians (at the time of writing this review). There is no fee to click pictures and you can click a nice panoramic shot from the vintage car collection shed. There is no fee to view this collection which houses Rolls Royce Phantom II, Morris, Humber. Cadillac and Buick from the early 20th century. All 6 to 8 cylinders and under 60 HP. So they were beautiful cars but pretty slow I'm guessing.
Overall a nice place to visit with one of the cheapest entry fees.

TIP: Put Umaid Bhavan Museum in Google Maps else it might take you to the entrance to the hotel and you'll have to turn around.
