Shiv Vilas Resort

While the recently built hotel is made to look like an old palace, much of the rooms are dated. Our room had very poor lighting which made it difficult to read. Additionally, the hotel was nearly empty (in high season), which left for an eerie feeling and resulted in 2 of the 3 restaurants not being open. I would've expected more moderate prices, but they were charging taxi and dinner prices comparable with the Rambagh Palace (which is a real 5 star hotel). Please note that this hotel is a good 35 minutes from downtown Jaipur.

Positioned a fair distance from Town (travel time). Hotel was cold. Staff tried hard. Dissappointed with how dirty the place was. Pigeon poo everywhere. Beautiful gardens / pool area - but cant anyone see the pigeion poo. Quality of food at restaurant - ok. Dissappointing.

We extremely enjoyed our stay at Shiv Villas. The hotel is just beautiful, lovely swimming pool area. great for weddings or week-end getaways. Close to the Amer Fort.

The hotel staff went above and beyond to make our trip excellent.

Very bad experience. The hotel is very far from the city and they don't have any kind of transportation!. After 2 hours of waiting they find a transportation service for us. They lied about the price and it was a very high regarding the area costs. After many hours of discussion they accept to pay it for us, but that was no the idea. The breakfast buffet is the worst I have had in all Indian hoteles. The rooms are not as luxuriest as it seems in the page, the bed next to the wall totally uncomfortable for a couple. Finally it was a hot season and the air conditioner was not in service for hotel areas. I would never recomend it.
