Excellent place . Better than any other destination I have been globally .. it’s like the French riveria.. chef rupak is great. GM prasoon leadership is good for client satisfaction. Big shout to chatra and gopal are best guide to help local shopping which matches Italian wears..Harsh our personal butler became like family and worked 24 hours to support our needs as we were recovering from Jet Lag.. we also got invited to get live shows from Salim Sulieman as hotel guests..definitely recommend this place to others.. why look at Dubai, Caribbean when India has this gem ..

Our stay at The Leela Palace Udaipur was amazing, thanks to Yuvraj & mohit great service and care. He made my mom's first visit to Udaipur very special. We felt like family, and everything was taken care of perfectly. The palace and views were stunning, and Yuvraj's friendly service made it even more memorable.

….. find new words of praise that have not been used by other visitors. However this is my review of our experience at The Leela. In honesty prior to our arrival I had some concerns as I had discovered that during our 5 night stay the hotel was also hosting a large wedding in the grounds. As such I was informed that certain areas would “not be available” to us. This caused some concern as we are “foodie types” and wanted to experience the various dining options and unique dining locations offered at The Leela. Anyway I was assured that the management team would ensure our Leela experience would be enjoyable. From the moment we arrived they kept that promise. The arrival at the hotel is by boat from the private dock near City Palace. We are greeted by Musicians and a welcomed Shade carrying greeter. As we walked under the lobby dome we were showered with Rose Petals, and offered a welcome glass of bubbles, which made a great start to our Wedding Anniversary celebrations. We were being escorted to our room, which turned into an upgraded beautiful Suite called the Residence. On entrance through the lobby area it opens up to features a large open plan Lounge Dining area, with a work desk should it be required ( it was not as I am retired ) there is also a large dressing area and a well equipped bathroom. The large separate bedroom area with very comfortable King Size bed and other decorative fittings. The Suite opens up across 3 balconies to views across manicured gardens to Lake Pichola. Throughout the public areas of the hotel you will find a collection of unique artwork, statues and ornamental pieces. All of which add to the luxury feel of this property. Now one thing for any visitor to the 5* hotels situated around the Lake is that these locations are very popular as wedding celebration venues, and we understand why as it is very romantic. However this can interfere with the facilities hotels can offer, and in certain ways we did experience this, Indian Weddings are Glamorous, Colourful and Noisy. I would recommend anyone looking to book hotels in this area to check if a function might be hosted at the same time. Now in fairness most wedding do a full takeover and therefore this is not an issue. So during our stay the hotel actually hosted 2 weddings and as such there was some areas that were taken over and a fair bit of Set Up / Take down work going on, but the management did everything possible to ensure we were not disturbed. But this really added to our Indian experience, the wedding celebrations were fabulous to watch from a distance and the Brides family were fantastic hosts and invited us to join their celebrations. The spectacular decor, music and ceremony gave us something special to remember. So because certain areas of the hotel grounds were given over to the party, the Food and Beverage team lead by Mr Amit Basu arranged some alternative dining locations for us to celebrate our anniversary. Their kindness and attention to detail could not be faulted , they made memories we will never forget. It would be unfair for me to clarify those options and locations as clearly they are not something always available. I was able to discuss personalised menus with the Executive Chef and received service attention from the personable Executive Sous Chef Rupak, who is not only talented but a real personality and a major asset to the hotel. There are many names that deserve a mention as service standards here are exemplary. From the Senior management team with whom I corresponded with many times ahead of our visit., Mr Abhishek who directed a team to ensure our enjoyment. Individual team members like our Butler Akshaj, general service members like Samarth and Ronak who seem to be everywhere at all times. Every person we encounter had a smile and greeting as we walked by, even the gardeners and those who worked so hard to clear up after the massive parties are special people who make Leela Palace a unique location and a must visit in Udaipur. Now of course any experienced traveller knows that even in the best locations, there is always something that could be better, and of course this is personal opinion. Here at The Leela they do have a beautiful Pool Area, but …… The Pool is simply too deep and mainly unusable for non swimmers. Even the shallow end is labelled as being 5’3” deep, for me that can only be measured on the last step of the entrance to the pool ( either that or I am shrinking ). I could not touch the floor of the pool in any other area and therefore was restricted to using about 2% of the total pool. It was bizarre to see other Adults using life rings in order to get away from the steps. I simply think that at the time of writing the pool may be overfilled. I write this review whilst enjoying lunch poolside. So to finish we simply say Thank you Leela our time with you was special, you made memories that will last a lifetime.

The Leela Palace Udaipur is a beautiful, lavish hotel designed to showcase the rich heritage and culture of Rajasthan! The one thing that stood out for me is the hotel’s hospitality. Right from the moment we arrived at the hotel, we could feel the staff’s warmth and hospitality! We were welcomed with a shower of rose petals, welcome drink and traditional Rajasthani music. Every evening they had ghoomar dance in their central square. They served delicious, traditional Rajasthani dishes at their breakfast buffet along with a great spread of Punjabi, South Indian and Continental items. Their staff would wait right by our table to help my in-laws and my young kids. Even on the last day when we checked out, they offered to pack us sandwiches for our road trip back home. Their concierge guided us for all the local sightseeing, shopping and even helped plan our trip to the nearby religious place - Nathdwara to visit the ancient Shrinathji temple. Overall, we had a memorable experience at the Leela Palace Udaipur and I would recommend the hotel to everyone looking for a luxurious, once in a lifetime hospitable experience!
