I stayed in one of their best suites, the ‘Siraj Khana’ which definitely made me feel like a princess. Antique furniture, a walk in closet, a spacious living room with beautiful chandeliers, a huge bathroom, a cozy bedroom with mosaic windows and a charming carpet coupled with modern amenities like a TV, a kettle and WI-FI  makes it the perfect gateway where you can relax and feel like a royal.

Take a walk in their cute lawns or enjoy some warm chai with freshly made pakodas in the living area of the bungalow. With their brilliant service this doesn’t feel like a hotel, rather it feels like you’re coming home.

Their Dining room with its long wooden table, eye catching red chandelier and antique upholstery deserves a special mention. Dine like a king with some delicious food prepared by their talented Chef Pankaj Gaur in the comfort of this beautiful room.

I absolutely loved the Daal Baati Churma that was as authentic as it should be and had the perfect balance of flavors. With a dollop of ghee on the baati, bite into one and enjoy as the flavors take over your senses. You can also request the Chef to make you some of his signature dishes like the ‘Masoor Pulav’ or ‘Shakaria Kheer’ with secret recipes that have been passed down from generations.
