The Oberoi Udaivilas, Udaipur

5. Lovely place and great staff. Awesome food . Very scenic and well maintained resort. We really enjoyed the morning family yoga sessions with Amisha. Must attend when there.

Had an amazing time at the hotel, all the staff were very inviting and sweet. will definitely recommend people to stay at the oberois.

Wrapping up what has become a four part review of the Oberoi hotels in India (see Oberoi Delhi, Oberoi Agra, and Oberoi Jaipur), I would like to focus on the Oberoi Udaivilas specifically, and the city of Udaipur generally. On this last leg of our trip (which for transparency was a Luxury Escapes 12 day private tour of India) we were privelidged to stay at this amazing hotel complex. Nestled on the bank of one of Udaipurs lakes, the hotel sprawls over the hillside, with its massive and imaculately landscaped grounds offering many vantage points to view the old city of Udaipur and its surrounds. Everywhere you look is another reminder of the glory days of Indian heritage, and the hotel is the best place to position yourself for the adventure. Our room was a Premier room (more like a spacious apartment really, with a private courtyard and secondary open courtyard next to one of the pools) and its opulance was beyond any we have experienced before. The food and service at the hotel were of the highest quality (from the detail provided in room service, to the mattress topper we finally discovered is available to ease the issue of hard beds, to the poolside kit (cold water, bug spray, sunscreen, cold face wipes and snacks) provided every time you sit down and contemplate a swim. The Hotels design meanders across the hill, with each corridor and amazing dome displaying a new feature of opulent design and grace. I was particularly impressed that, even though I didn't pay the kings ransom for one of the incredible suites on offer, I never felt that I was less of a guest (this was a huge feature absent in other scalable hotels). The hotel even provided a golf cart service from the front door to the gate or boat ramp, complementary boat shuttle across the lake (with waiting tuk-tuk or taxi at the other side), and warm greetings by every staff member every time. There seems to be an overt sense of focus on quality and satisfaction in this hotel group, reflected in a desire to ensure that the customer is happy at all times. As an Aussie who is used to somewhat less service at home, this was overwhelmingly appreciated and yet at times mildly annoying due to its frequency). The city of Udaipur is less crowded and bustling than other cities, with a feel not unlike the northern lakes in Italy, relaxed and pleasant to walk around with its shops and lanes, lush green vegitation, and the many restaurants of the area. We even engaged in a local cooking class in a provate house in town. The City Palace was well worth the visit, as was the waterfront (reminiscent of Venice). We loved this city, adored this magnificent hotel and its staff, and would not hesitate to recommend it as a place to retreat to and enjoy Indias more relaxed side.

Awsome experience view was very very good. Must visit resort in india. HOSPITALITY WAS SUPERB AT OBEROI. AWSOME VIEW AT RESORTS.

Had the most amazing stay and vacation at Oberai Udaivilas, I had visited along with my family, right from the arrival welcome to the check out everything was exceptional. Special mention and shout out to Sara, Mahesh, Lokesh at the restaurant and everyone at the front office + everyone at housekeeping( sorry for missing out on names . Thank you everyone you have given us memories for a lifetime.
