About Basant Vihar
Basant Vihar Palace Palace was built because of a ‘fanciful desire’ of His Highness Maharaj Sri Ganga Singhji, a connoisseur of architecture and one blessed with an artistic sense.
It was designed by him to be a separate pleasure garden adjoining the Zanana bagh (Royal Ladies’ Garden) of Lalgarh Palace. In 1993, the House of Bikaji converted this masterpiece of architecture into a heritage hotel - Hotel Basant Vihar Palace Palace. An endeavour to offer tourists a true flavour of history and royal living (as opposed to the usual star-category hotels), Hotel Basant Vihar Palace Palace today, remains a ‘garden of eternal spring.’

Dining
In the royal kitchens of Rajasthan, food was such serious business that it was raised to an art form. At Hotel Basant Vihar Palace Palace, our chefs are trained to continue this practice.

As for Rajasthani cuisine, recipes passed down the generations are what we pride ourselves in.
