The
history of Samode Palace goes back to more than four and a half centuries.
Prithviraj Singhji of Amber, the seventeenth prince of the house of
Kachhawaha Rajputs, had awarded Samode to one of his twelve sons - Gopal
Singhji along with the hereditary title of Rawal Saheb. Set costly in the
picturesque rugged hills, Samode Palace with its stately majesty opens a
grand journey into the glorious past through its frescoed corridors.
The
palace is full of architectural delights. The birds, animals and flowers
painted on the walls of the sultan mahal, the dining room with its stained
glass windows and its collection of old family portraits, the durbar hall
with its painted ceilings and intricately carved walls and beautiful
chandeliers, give this palace its old world charm.
Each room is
done up in traditional rajasthani style and the antique furniture blends
well with the surroundings. A traditional welcome with camel carts,
buggies, elephants and local musicians is organised on preference. Camel
safaris are available.
Accomodation: 30 dbl rooms
