Perched on a private island in the Udai Sagar Lake, Raffles Udaipur offers a secluded retreat where serenity meets splendour. Enveloped by sweeping vistas of the shimmering lake and the majestic Aravalli Hills, this magnificent sanctuary makes for an idyllic escape from urban life.

Each of the 101 expansive rooms and suites reflects a harmonious blend of Rajasthani, Mughal, and European design influences, featuring handcrafted local furnishings and a curated collection of artworks ranging from Mughal miniatures to vibrant ragamālā paintings. Guests can bask in plush luxury while enjoying panoramic lake views from their spacious balconies. Select accommodations offer added indulgences such as private pools or meticulously landscaped gardens, heightening the sense of opulence and comfort.

The principal building’s design draws from classical Palladian architecture with elegant Rajput-Mughal accents, including decorative chhatris and intricate stucco work.

Culinary experiences at Raffles Udaipur are equally remarkable, with heirloom Rajputana cuisine at Sawai Kitchen, bespoke masterclasses at Rasoi, and innovative pastries at Raffles Patisserie. The Pool Bar and Long Bar offer relaxed settings with cocktails, light fare, and music, while the Writers Bar serves classic cocktails and Afternoon Tea amidst a vast collection of books.

At Raffles Udaipur, we take immense pride in offering guests an unparalleled experience that transcends the ordinary. Situated on its own private island in the tranquil waters of Lake Udai Sagar, our resort is a testament to exclusivity, luxury and serenity. From personalised wellness therapies at our legendary Raffles Spa to gastronomic journeys that ignite the senses, every aspect of the guest experience is crafted with meticulous attention to detail. We invite guests to embark on a journey of discovery and indulgence, where every moment is infused with the timeless elegance and legendary hospitality that define the Raffles legacy.
