Tucked away in the age-old Aravali hills of Rajasthan, the 18th century Devi Garh Fort Palace, in the village of Delwara commands one of the three main passes into the valley of Udaipur. Sajja Singh, who hailed from the neighbouring state of Gujarat, was awarded this strategically significant principality, in recognition of his bravery and loyalty to Maharana Pratap against the Mughal emperor Akbar, at the battle of Haldighati (1576).
The actual construction of the fort palace started only in the 1760s, under Raghudev Singh II, with further additions being made to the structure by the rulers who followed. The palace was absorbed into the state of Rajasthan in the 1960s, and was subsequently abandoned.
Today, after years of restoration and reconstruction, Devi Garh has regained its past glory. An imposing and impressive structure, it is now a unique all-suite boutique hotel, with 23 suites and 6 tents.
Devi Garh stands, quite literally, in two worlds: the traditional and the modern. Its ambience is an eclectic mix of skillfully crafted designs, both old and new, functional and purely aesthetic. Local materials like marble and semi-precious stones have been used in contemporary designs to create an elegant beauty. Personalized service complemented by a wide range of modern facilities goes towards making Devi Garh a comfortable and attractive retreat.
Situated 26 kilometers North-East of Udaipur, Devi Garh is a convenient 45 minutes' scenic drive from the city. The fort, surrounded by lush green fields and mountains on three sides, overlooks the village of Delwara and is close to the temples of Eklingji and Nagda. The combination of a traditional Rajasthani village, the towering fort and the temples, makes for an interesting mix.
Udaipur is easily accessible via air from Delhi or Mumbai, with convenient road and rail connections too. Local taxis are easily available from the airport or train station to transport guests to Devi Garh. Alternatively the hotel can organise a car to pick up the guests upon their arrival at Udaipur, if they so desire.
Devigarh is the perfect romantic getaway in the desert land of Rajasthan. Devi Garh is about 28 km away from Udaipur and 5 km from Eklinji (along NH 8) in southern Rajasthan. Takes about 45 minutes driving time from Udaipur city. Devigarh is selected in the Tatler Travel Guide for 2001, as one of the 101 best hotels in the world.
It’s not cheap honeymooning here in one of the world’s best palace hotels… but if you want a memorable hideaway for one of the most momentous occasions of your new life together, this is the place to be…. So, escape to Devi Garh’s fantasy world of luxury suites and private pools, cooling fountains and open air Jacuzzis.

Restaurants
Devigarh Restaurant provides a unique view of Aravalis. Clean, crisp, yet utterly decadent should be the motto that describes "the restaurant" at Devi Garh. It is decorated in white linen with small accents of silver. The effect is extremely pleasing to the eye and only compliments the chic, modern look that is carried through the hotel.
However, don’t expect to spend all of your meals in this elegant dining room. Devi Garh’s speciality is its thali, or should I say, several thalis. The restaurant serves a thali from a different region each day of the week. If you’re lucky, you may start your eating experience at Devi Garh with its home state (Rajasthani) thali. Both veg and non-veg options are available. The only downfall, however, is its price, ranging up to Rs 750 for the non-veg thali.
