OVERALL GOOD. MANAGEMENT COULD NOT PROVIDE ACCOMODATION IN UMAID BHAWAN(10 & 11 OCT.'08).BUT ACCOMODATED IN UMAID MAHAL.ACOMODATION & FOOD SATISFACTORY. ON RETURN (18 & 19 OCT'08) UMAID BHAWAN ROYAL SUITE WAS BOOKED AND SAME ACCOMODATION WAS PROVIDED. THE A/C OF THE ROOM WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY AND HAD TO TO CALL THE RECEPTION SEVERAL TIMES. DUE TO SOME SHORT CIRCUIT A/C WAS TRIPPING EVERY NOW AND THEN. SAME PROBLEM WAS NOT RECTIFIED TILL CHECK OUT. FOOD SATISFACTORY. LOCATION WISE CONVENIENT.

THE PAINTINGS AND DECORATION OF THE HOTEL.THE BEHAVIOUR OF THE STAFF.

UMAID BHAWAN DOES NOT HAVE AN INHOUSE BAR WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO BE A MUST IN A STAR CATEGORY HOTEL.

very good

It provided us with an authentic Rajasthan feeling with well carved furnitures and luxury rooms. Helped to provide a luxurious touch to our trip rather than staying in a typical suite. Was happy to get a discounted price from makemytrip as well

The size and look of the reception was not upto the mark for a good first impression. Also the location of rooms and lifts are little confusing.

Very happy stay.

The location of the hotel is good.The hotel is located in a calm place around 12 km from Airport and 1.5 km from central bus stand and Jaipur railway station. Its convenient to travel to tourist places in Jaipur from the hotel. The hotel has got roof top restaurant which is very pleasent. The foodis tasty and served fresh. It has variety of veg and non-veg food since more of foreigh tourist visit the hotel. Hotel has clean and well maintained swimming pool which is in one cornerwith no disturbance. They have also got internet connection, travel desk facility and other car facility etc

The rooms are very clean and neatly maintained and also specious with balconies. Complete hotel as well as rooms are decorated with traditional jaipury printng. THe staff do not disturbunnecessary.The staff is very good, well trained and friendly. Service was prompt.

After visiting this property it doesnt look like that hotel business is a hospitality business , this place was more of a private bunglow converted into a small time hotel with no basic facilities like power backup , or soap in the bathrooms . If ever there was a competition - their chef (if ever they had one) would be awarded the world's worst Chef. Though they had a big variety on the menu card but hardly had 4 things to serve. I dont want to write more cos I dont want to refresh my memories of this nightmare.
