Taj Umaid Bhavan Palace Reviews

Good place to make your weekend pleasure with your relatives and family. The museum available in the bhawan where you can see the historical things of the royal family Maharaj gaj singh.

Nice place to visit especially vintage cars collection

Its one of the most beautiful place which you can see in jodhpur , Rajasthan . The hotel rooms are good and you will experience a great ancient palace from inside .

Very well kept & self explanatory museum. Must go for car fanatics amazing collection of vintage cars.

Most part of this palace at Udaipur is hotel or royal's stay place. The place has a sound and light show in the evening. The tickets are priced at 200 and 500. The place will take around 1-3 hours depending on your interest. From here we can see the palace in Lake Pichola.

Beautiful historical property with a modern touch. Amazing place to visit with your loved ones.

Nice place but tickets are a bit high for Indians too.

Beautiful and royal place , all old memories are stored here showing the real royal time of Indian history...........pls visit it with children's and all...........proud to be indian.....

Awsm Palace... Many antique things.. n old Cars can be seen in the museum

A small fraction of the beautiful fort is open for public as a museum. Rest is a hotel & the King's residence.
Great exhibition of the Royal family's history, possessions, interests, rooms and halls. Entry fee: 30(Indian Adults), 100(Foreign Adults).
AutoRicks & Ola available to & from the Railway station at 90-100

One of the newest built palaces in India. Many vintage cars for viewing which cannot be seen elsewhere easily. Not much though available to see in the palace except the carsm

Best heritage hotel i ever seen well maintained superb hotel

Magnificent hotel set in splendid grounds, sets a standard hard for others to live up to!

Didn't liked it much as it potraited only royalness of king ,nothing related to their bravery was showcased.Only some part of the palace can be accessed.

Nice place to visit after Mehrangarh fort. They have Nice collection of antique watches. Only issue is transportation. It's better to take ola or uber.

It's a royal palace, well managed and with certain part open to people as a Museum, do hire a guide and hear the stories in detail

Greetings,
I'm not the one who write reviews at the drop of a hat. Having said that it doesn't mean,I don't. I do but rarely and only for the events that touches my soul deep enough. The experience we had at Umaid Bhawan Palace is one of those rare occasions where the gesture, the hospitality, the care and effort moves you to the core and fills you up with enormous joy.
Like every year, I was sorting out one of the Taj properties to celebrate our wedding anniversary, as a surprise for my wife & 3 yrs old daughter, when it struck me that what could be more mesmerizing than the beauty, grandeur & history which Umaid Bhawan presents you with.
It started with the courteous and delightful communication with Mr. Akshay Sharma, the reservation manager & Mr. Bharat Tandon, the duty manager, who very patiently and meticulously responded to all my queries with emails running back & forth as i was on the move abroad. They assured me of the very best and the most memorable of moments during our stay at the Palace and that's what we got the moment we entered Umaid Bhawan. It was an absolute wonder, the way we were received, greeted & welcomed at the entrance of the Palace and so warmly escorted to our extremely beautiful palace room, which by the way was upgraded as a heartening gesture for the auspicious occasion of our wedding anniversary by Mr. Bharat Tandon.
Such was the hospitality at Umaid Bhawan that we didn't have the slightest idea that it was just the beginning of what turned out to be one of the most cherishable stays we have ever had. Everyone was so warm, welcoming and always there for us, to make us feel very special, be it Mr Bharat, Akshat, Sabitri at the reception or Karan, Punit at the restaurant and the entire team of Taj Umaid Bhawan, some names we can recall and some we can't but credit to every single staff of Umaid Bhawan.
It was an evening to remember, sitting outside the Pillars restaurant being taken care of by Mr. Virendra bhatt, the f&b manager, who presented us with a delicious dinner for our anniversary celebration.
Words wouldn't suffice to describe the mesmerizing moments we lived & the memories we created during our stay but like a sweet melody it will keep humming in our hearts for a long time to come..
With love & regards,
Dr Rajbir Dhillon

Umaid Bhawan Palace, Jodhpur
Construction (1928 to 1943)
Built By= Sawai Jai Singh

It one of the world's largest private residences.
Divided into 3 Parts.

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

Nothing there to see. Only pics and some video. If interested in vintage cars then you can go

Best hotel ...
Loved their hospitality ...
Very good rooms etc...

Grand, but looks very artificial. Lacks the element of Rajputana valour in it. Just museum part open for public and rest of the building is hotel for ugly rich people.

Built between 1928 and 1943, Umaid Bhawan Palace is a magnificent piece of Rajasthan s heritage, and a symbol of new Jodhpur. Home of the erstwhile Jodhpur royal family and currently the world s sixth-largest private residence, the palace has one thing in common with the iconic Taj Mahal at Agra the palm court marble used in its construction.

Perched on Chittar Hill, the highest point in Jodhpur, Umaid Bhawan Palace inspires with exotic views of the historical Blue City, vast sand dunes, and intimidating Mehrangarh Fort. The palace is conveniently located 20 minutes from the airport, close to the main shopping areas, and the Balsamand and Kalyana lakes.

The last of the great palaces of India, the property houses a family museum, as well as the resplendent Umaid Bhawan Palace. Set amidst 26 acres of lush gardens, with dancing peacocks and a subterranean Zodiac Pool, the luxury five-star Taj heritage hotel offers 64 utterly breathtaking Art Deco- style rooms and suites.

its residential palace of jodhpur darbar and also five star hotel and nice museum , bar

High costly palace built by King Umaid Sing, for his pleasure....

Its Grandiose.. its Royal.. its Majestic!!
The richest and largest personal property Umaid Bhawan Palace and museum is an experience to watch. Its named after Maharaja Umaid singh. Royal Rajasthan at its best. Anyone visiting Rajasthan must visit once here. Some old model cars once used by the Royal family are also displayed.

Nice Clean place with a MUSEUM and a luxury hotel over taken by the TAJ group of hotels.

Privately owned palace of the king with vast history and display of king's lifestyle along with a 5 star hotel and king's residence.

A very very royal palace. Still the ancestory continues.

Very well maintained and heritage property. Worth visiting . A picture perfect palace and hotel. If you are in jodhpur , visit is highly recommended.

A good historic place to visit . The culture of Rajasthan and life of king's can be seen here with the historical events.

Old heritage palace...
Pride of jodhpur..

If you want to go places where Priyanka chopra was married you cannot go there

Best, Most Expensive, Most Luxurious, Most Important site, And also Historically Important site.

Very nice palace but one thing I don't connect they don't allow us to see palace like in udaipur they allow us to see some part

Umaid bhawan palace is overhyped, there is nothing much to see. Very small part of the palace is open for the visitors to see. We do not get to know much about the Rathore rulers by visiting the museum. The only point of attraction was the Vintage car display museum.

It is a beautiful piece of architecture. One must visit if visiting jodhpur. Nice place and great architecture. The ambience of the place was lovely and you will find decent inform about history of maharaja umaid singh
