Dining

Surya Mahal:
Surya Mahal offers one of Rajasthan's best dining experiences. Its stately Rajasthani décor, with sculpted sandstone pillars, scalloped arches and handcrafted brass doors, revives the lifestyles of the princes of Rajputana. The restaurant offers light fusion cuisine with elements from Asia and Europe. This is complemented with Rajasthani culinary delights served in traditional silver thalis or platters.

A special feature at Rajvilas is the Al Fresco dining experience. Indian classical music and traditional Rajasthani folk dances in the courtyard adjoining Surya Mahal create a vibrant atmosphere.

Rajwada Library & Bar:
Rajwada literally means royal residence, and in keeping with the name, this library bar has a regal ambience imbued with a residential atmosphere. The walls are lined with shelves containing an extensive selection of leather bound books and coffee table books, as well as a wide variety of compact discs and laser discs. Burma teak flooring and a fireplace made of white Italian marble add to the warm ambience. Unobtrusively tucked away in one corner of the library, the small bar counter, offers a fine selection of wines, liquors and beverages.

A selection of fine books, old manuscripts and board games like chess and backgammon are also available.

Conference and Banquet Facilities

Rajvilas provides the ideal destination for exclusive retreats, select corporate gatherings, brainstorming sessions and board meetings. State-of-the-art technology and attentive service to facilitate conferences are available on the premises.
