We stayed here for a night before continuing our travel to Udaipur. We were blown away by the warm service extended to us by the entire team at Bal Samand Lake Palace. We checked in pretty late in the afternoon and were upset the sun had set and we couldn't explore the property immediately so we relaxed in our rooms for a bit before heading to Kebab Hut for dinner. The next morning we woke up pretty late and were the last to have breakfast. We weren't rushed into having a quick breakfast even thought the breakfast time was up. They provided us with exception food along with unmatched service like we were special guests of the King himself. The service staff dons a red turban like they probably would in the good old days. The breakfast was elaborate and taste on point. We had fresh dosa's, omelettes, pan cakes and waffles and stopped only because we had to travel to Udaipur and didn't want to overeat. After breakfast we went around the property and were blown away by how well it is maintained and vast the property really is. Thats one summer house the king has. Is has a gorgeous swimming pool, lake view and a breathtaking stable with Marwari horses. We can't wait to go back to Bal Samandh with our family and spend good quality time here unlike the short trip we took recently. An absolute must visit.

We stayed in this hotel (3 rooms) in oct17. The location is a little away from the buzz of the city and you need a car to travel around to all the touristy places in and around Jodhpur. However, the Balsamand Lake Palace hotel is amazing - it is set inside the lake gardens and some of the room (costlier ones) are right next to the lake. The gardens are very well maintained. The swimming pool is set in a beautiful part of the gardens, however only inconvenience is that its far away from the rooms.
The hotel offers you free bikes (cycles) which you an ride around the whole campus - it is huge and bike ride is beautiful, though morning walks/jogs are also advisable.
The restaurant is very popular with the locals and can get quite crowded at night. There is an open air section of the restaurant (in the garden) which can be very nice and pleasant during the early winters (Sept to Nov).
The kebabs at this restaurant are very very good and highly recommended to even those who are not staying at the hotel (restaurant is open to outside guests, though advance booking of table is advisable).
The rooms are quite spacious and very comfortable.

Lovely heritage Art Deco palace hotel and splendid garden rooms.
Spotlessly clean and very comfortable.
Both the palace and garden rooms are housed in a large beautiful park with amazing peacock fountain and breathtaking views of the lake which is especially beautiful at sunset.
Lots of wildlife too- monkeys, peacocks, fruit bats etc .
The staff are world class with a special thanks to Jitender Singh who made our stay extra special.
The food at the restaurants is amazing and very varied.
I will be returning soon

It's a palace turned hotel belonging to the erstwhile Maharaja of Jodhpur. I was told that it used to be the summer palace of the King and the Queen. Every aspect of this palatial hotel retains the royal feel of the bygone era.The time we checked in, we got an exhilarating welcome by the gorgeous peacocks roaming the lawns as if they owned them. The estate is huge, and the residential units are divided into two blocks, one across a sprawling garden and the other overlooking a beautiful lake, from which it derives its name. The architecture of the palace, the lake and the surrounding campus made of huge blocks of solid rock which still stand sturdy, are sure to mesmerize you with how impeccable and advanced Indian architecture has been, meticulously nurtured by the Royals.
The food was good and the staff, who were dressed as in the days of the King, were exceptionally courteous.
A wonderful experience at Bal Samand that will remain forever to cherish.

Excellent service. Open air candlelight dinner in the evening available. Delicious Indian cuisine. Varied breakfast buffet.
Extensive gardens with fairytale Maharajah palace, pool and lake view for strolling, where you can watch peacocks, monkeys, and many species of birds.
Guests are welcomed like maharajahs and princesses. Top!
