The Laxmi Niwas Palace

The staff is outstanding at this beautiful property. We only stayed one night in Bikaner and weren’t expecting much based on some of the negative reviews we read on Trip Advisor before booking. However our experience was outstanding. We were warmly greeted and given two beautiful suites. The floor in our room had just been refinished and was still off-gassing. We asked to be moved and were promptly and cheerfully given another room. We arrived on Diwali and the hotel had fireworks on the front lawn and a dinner in the outdoor central courtyard. There were live musicians and an incredible dancer during dinner. Breakfast the next morning was great and the service was friendly and professional. To top it off our friends left behind some clothing. The hotel promptly texted me a photo of what was left behind and kindly mailed it to our address in India so that I could return it to them when we finally go back to the USA. Thank you Mr. Narendra Singh Shekhawat for going above and beyond. I happily recommend a stay at the Laxmi Niwas Palace. We look forward to returning.

We stayed one night on our way from Delhi to Jaisalmer. The property met our needs for a stopover. Staff was very nice. Both meals were fine

Le Laxmi Niwas Palace est un établissement absolument exceptionnel car il s'agit de l'ancien palais du Maradjah de Bikaner, ouvert en 1902, avec tout le confort de l'époque de style anglais et la magnificence d'un palais royal (peintures à l'or fin, façades ornementées, chambres gigantesques...). Pour respecter la qualité historique et patrimoniale des lieux, et c'est une bonne chose, l'hôtel a choisi de localiser certains services plus modernes dans leur second hôtel, un petit palais Art deco très beau, où leur chauffeur vous amène gratuitement à la demande et vous attend sur place, par exemple si vous souhaitez profiter de restaurants supplémentaires ou d'une piscine sur le toit (celle du Laxmi donne sur les jardins).
