Moving ahead and talking about how was my stay at this royal property, words fall short when I start writing about my experience. Travelling for 4 hours from Gurgaon as we reached and felt a bit tired, we were welcomed at this grand retreat with a welcome drink and later we entered our Royal Villa with a Plunge pool, we settled in the outdoor sitting and had our evening tea and snacks by the pool. The rooms felt very rich in art due to the presence of paintings, sculptures and other things, in the room, the outdoors and even by the pool.
As soon as the light went on, the beauty of this palace was just so impeccable that it felt so surreal and that too on a full moon night the whole palace was glowing. We then went to its own “Jharokha Bar”, which had a very happy and colourful sitting area and perfect lighting and ambience.
It was dinner time already and we decide to go for the night to “Mohan Mahal”, the Indian speciality restaurant, which is inspired by the architectural designs of Sheesh Mahal, The walls of the restaurant are decorated with 3,50,000 pieces of traditional and classic glass. It also has some of the best royal maharaja dishes from the old era with authentic taste.
My stay at this grandeur hotel for two nights was such an amazing and luxurious experience. If you’re planning for a weekend getaway near Delhi/NCR or Jaipur, then The Leela Palace should be top on your list, and it’s even better if it’s with family including kids.
