The RAAS Devigarh is, for us, one of the most stunning hotels in Rajasthan, India. There is a majestic nobility about it, which is no surprise given that it was completed in 1760 under the reign of Raj Rana Sajjan Singh II.
Imagine a fairytale castle perched high on a rock. The kind of place that Cinderella would hang out after the Prince had placed her errant shoe on her foot. RAAS Devigarh is that kind of place.
Dinner for two in the Sheesh Mahal, or palace mirror room, is an experience like no other. You’ll walk through a carpet of fragrant rose petals to settle at your exquisite table with the light of hundreds of candles reflecting of the mosaics.
The village of Delwara, once known as the town of gods, because it boasted 1,000 temples, sits just below the hotel and rewards wandering as it remains largely untouched by modern life.
