The Oberoi Udaivilas, Udaipur
Udaipur, India
On the banks of Lake Pichola, The Oberoi Udaivilas occupies 121,000 square metres (30 acres) of landscaped gardens. Interconnected domes and walkways take cues from traditional Rajasthani design, while the resort’s position across the water from Udaipur’s old-city landmarks gives the setting a distinctly lakeside character. Rooms range from garden-facing accommodation to selected rooms and suites with private or semi-private pools; the grounds, architecture and lake views shape the stay as much as the rooms do.
