The whole property was not clean, the rooms were small dark, not at all luxurious, and the small beds very hard and uncomfortable. The pool area had no shade, the chairs and lounges unclean and not... More

It is however, around 45 minutes from the Pink City (Main Jaipur area) and around 1 hour from the airport. The hotel building itself was beautiful. Palatial with gorgeous monuments and decor.

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Creation of this palatial structure took us a full Six years and we opened our gates to receive our distinguished guests from October 20, 2006 onwards. The hotels exterior is reminiscent of the palaces of Rajasthan featuring huge frescoes hand carved meticulously in ‘pink sandstone’ and white marble. The hotel is dazzling white by day & turns sunset yellow by night with our illumination providing the guests a spectacular view from all angles. Adding to the hotels grandeur is the magnificent ‘atrium’ lobby which reveals sheer grandeur. The interiors are a fusion of the Victorian, Persian & Mughal architecture. Combining the latest technology with a long-standing reputation of Indian hospitality, “Shiv Vilas” symbolizes the very essence of Indian Culture, embracing the best of the new alongside traditions of the past. ... more   less
