Sukhdham


Heritage Hotel Sukhdham Kothi is one hotel, which is all made up of dressed red sandstone amidst a lush orchard. With its open terraces, cool arcades, foliated arches and intricately carved stone screens Sukhdham is a harmonious blend of English and Indian architecture.
Constructed in 1870 by the British rulers of that time, the mansion was built as a residence for the British surgeon in Kota. Later the mansion was renamed Sukhdham Haveli by Maharaja Umed Singhji Bahadur in 1922. The GOC of the Kota State, Thakur Prithvi Singhji became the occupant of this palace and his descendants continue to live here even today.

All the 14 rooms of the Haveli bear a traditional look even though they are fitted with modern amenities like direct dialing phones, attached bath with running hot/cold water, cable televison and 24-hour room service. Other facilities extended by the hotel include a swimming pool, conference facilities, doctor on call, laundry, car rental and parking, The multi-cuisine restaurant serves delectable Indian and continental fare. Guests are also entertained through games, conducted jeep safaris and folk music and dances. For the bird lovers this place is a paradise.

Sukhdham literally means "The Abode of Bliss" and this is exactly what the visitor experiences, with the peacocks and multitude of birds in the mango groves and long leisurely walks through the scented trees and shrubs along the walkways.
