Karohi Haveli — Udaipur, Rajasthan

We stayed at the Karohi Haveli for four nights in early December 2019 ($109/night including taxes). We are very familiar with this property having stayed there a few nights on our first visit to Udaipur in 2017. It’s a great location, virtually waterfront with great views of one of Udaipur’s iconic lakes. We booked (again) the corner room overlooking the lake. We are familiar with many of the restaurants and shops on both sides of the lake on the nearby walking streets. We reveled in seeing so many old friends and acquaintances — even though Paul was still recovering from dengue fever!

The property was undergoing a major renovation while we were there. At least half the guest rooms were gutted and being reconstructed. Surprisingly, this did not seem to impact us very much. Although we thought it was a fair amount of chutzpah to undertake the scale of their work during the winter peak tourist season. Oh well. We feel like the staff there are old friends and do not want to dissuade others too much. The rooms are unique and the location is superb. (But not all the electrical plugs worked.) The property needs some TLC (tender loving care).
