Hotel Pushkar Palace

It’s not about the star ratio it’s more about where you focus is. Read below and decide We stayed here for a few nights and found the location to be outstanding. The hotel is right on the lake, just a short walk from the main bazaar, and in a safe area. It’s ideal for exploring on foot or by tuk-tuk. Service was another highlight — the staff were kind, welcoming, and quick to respond to any requests. We really appreciated their hospitality. The building itself is a villa with lovely original architecture and a lot of character. However, it’s important to know that the hotel has seen better days. While it still looks picturesque from the outside, the rooms and amenities are noticeably worn. Some aspects, like the outdated electrical setup, may be concerning for guests expecting modern safety standards. Housekeeping keeps the rooms clean, and the charm is still there — but this isn’t a modern or recently renovated property. If you value location and atmosphere over updated facilities, and are okay with a more rustic experience, this place may suit you.

This was not the most luxurious hotel we stayed in but gets 5 stars for charm, authenticity, location overlooking Lake and value for money. The decor in the small rooms and balconies was excellent. The dining room decor was strangely spartan by contrast. Think it was half way through a renovation. Proximity to lake and a ghat was excellent and we walked all way round lake.

As a group we stay for 2 nights and unfortunately we were very disappointed. We had stayed previously prior to COVID and the standard of the hotel, its facilities, food, staff and service has dropped dramatically. It is such a shame given the excellent location on the lake and access to shopping streets. Requests for assistance were met with unhelpful staff and we were made to feel bad for asking for things. Unless upgrades/improvements are made, we could not recommend a stay here… unless you are prepared for a sub 3 star experience.

This hotel appears out of nowhere and is superb. The staff are so friendly and caring. The rooms are delightful. The food is delicious - our dinner and breakfast were delicious and served in the stunning balcony overlooking the spiritual lake. We loved Pushkar and will remain a highlight of our 3 week tour to this special part of the world.

Lake view from balcony is awesome. Right next to ghat if you want to visit Pushkar Lake. Rooms are well maintained. Seems to cater to international customers so bath tub is a standard feature in all bathrooms. would be nice to have rooms with senior citizen friendly shower options

BEWARE THIEVES! My iPad was stolen from my room on 11/11/2024. The staff did nothing to investigate and instead denied, denied, denied. I filed a report with the police, I spoke to the General Manager of the hotel but received zero follow-up. BEWARE!
