Kesar Palace - Hotel in Udaipur - Udaipur, India

Went their in December'16. The hotel is fine as per the budget. Staff is quite friendly. The rooms are basic and comfortable. That time they were only serving breakfasts. The rooftop is nice and comfy. Lake view rooms are on top floor only and are reserved most of the times. They don't do room service by their own. But happily do it when asked for. All rooms are mostly reserved in the season. So better book in advance. All in all a decent hotel if we talk about budget. But you can get far better hotels that are closer to lake if you have higher budget.

We moved to Hotel Kesar Palace from another place nearby. One reason we chose it as we were shopping around was the welcome of owner Santosh, who proved consistently pleasant and reliable throughout our 4-day stay. Our room, 501, was GORGEOUS (most inviting we've had in 3 months in India). Views are beautiful, room was clean, with necessary amenities provided (though the towels left us no drier once used), and all for a very reasonable 1,200Rs. We did get a glimpse at a lower room at one point, and I think the quality may vary considerably, so be forewarned of that. The rooftop restaurant's a great place to hang out and meet other travelers, and the food is really good! Aloo Gobi was delicious, and the masala chai comes in great big glasses of goodness! I also made a point to check out the kitchen, and it is kept VERY clean, with good food handling, for which I applaud them immensely. The location is very central, but also a ways down an alley, so it is not noisy. Look for the "Black Pepper" sign on the main street. Overall, we really enjoyed Hotel Kesar Palace, and would recommend it to anyone coming to Udaipur!

My stayat Hotel Kesar Palace was a good experience. Rooms are clean and my room was very quiet, the bed was comfortable and the showers were hot. Hotel Kesar Palace provided excellent service. Premi the owner even invited me over to his house for a cooked meal. Also excellent location for walking Udaipur

We got there because a rickshaw driver convinced us to go there. The first two floors look like they are under construction but the rooms are clean and nice, the location is central and all Udaipur sights are easily reachable on foot. The rooftop restaurant is nice, reasonably priced with an amazing view. The owner was friendly and helpful. Internet was one of the fastest we had in India. Beware of touts present in the rooftop restaurant.

Nice Rooms. Hot water facility available. Great view of lake Pichola from Roof-top restaurant. Nice food and serves Premium Beer. Not recomended for people who have knee problems. Situated in small streets so Parking facility not available even for Bikes.

Only thing good about hotel is view you get from it's window that to in some rooms only. No t.v., service bad, no telecom to call reception, Restraunt at roof top was closed for entire period of my stay. If you need any thing you had to go 5 floor down at reception, no security, hotel was off the road in narrow passage.

Overrated, if travelling by car then be prepared for parking your vehicle a km or so away from the hotel. Pics posted of the hotel in app were apparently not what it looks like in actual. Only the staff was courteous and polite and of course the location was very good just in centre of the city market.

Peepal Tree name suits this place better. A quaint unassuming place, beautiful view from the rooftop cafe. Mr. Parvat was very warm and welcoming. His chicken curry was outstanding! Beautiful, simple and tastefully set up rooms.
