Amet Haveli is a little gem hidden in the most perfect location on the banks of Lake Pichola, overlooking the Lake Palace and City Palace in Udaipur, India.
With only 20 rooms, it is a treasure trove of history dating back as far as 1752 when it was completed using materials left over from the construction of the Lake Palace. Drawing on Mughal and Rajput architectural styles, Amet Haveli is a beautiful concoction of ornate features, with intricately carved windows, old wooden doors and overhanging balconies.
The old city is within easy walking distance. You’ll be at the Jagdish temple in 15 minutes and the City Palace within 20. The old city is easy to navigate and your really get a feel for the beauty of Udaipur.
With only 20 rooms, Amet Haveli books out fast. Our favourite lake view rooms are in short supply during peak season, so don’t dither if you want to get a foot in the door.
