Built
as a summer retreat by Rao Bijay Singhji, the ruler of Masuda
in Rajasthan around 1910, Bijay Niwas is a fine blend of Rajputana
and colonial architecture. Nestling a culture of warm hospitality
and dauntless valor, the palace has opened its gates to welcome
the world into its four walls, which till now was an exclusive
royal prerogative. Located in the district of Ajmer, it is one
of the most popular heritage hotels in the northern region. This
ancient heritage building is set in the midst of 50 acres of fruit
orchard where guests can go for long walks and enjoy the fresh
air.
The
artistically designed suites are all reminiscent of the royal
ambience due to the presence of original vintage furniture and
exotic scenario of traditional Rajasthani wall murals and frescoes.
All this is enough to transport the guest's back in to a world
of unparalleled riches and consummate luxuries. The eight royal
rooms provide all modern amenities like attached bath with hot/cold
water, safety lockers, telephones, televisions and 24 hours room
service. The heritage hotel also has a doctor on call, travel
assistance, conference facilities, swimming pool, tennis courts
and organizes camel and horse rides as well as jeep safaris. The
chefs at the multi-cuisine restaurant at Bijay Niwas Palace prepare
deliciously spiced dishes that recreate the special Ajmer regalia.
Popular among guests is the quiet dinner besides the bonfire and
the bar-be-cue, and a relaxing sunny morning breakfast in the
lawns.
This
royal retreat serves as an ideal getaway that still retains the
same tranquil ambience even today - that of a royal gateway.
