The Taj Lake Palace in Udaipur is an 18th-century heritage hotel. A floating white marble palace in the middle of Lake Pichola, it is often called the world's most beautiful hotel and was also where Octopussy was shot. The 280-year-old property, formerly known as Jag Niwas Palace, was the summer palace of the royal Mewar dynasty.
In the video, Tim highlighted the exceptional hospitality and personalised service he experienced during his stay, including a private butler and a custom-tailored tasting menu prepared by the head chef. Upon his arrival, he was transported to the hotel in a luxurious boat, where a butler received him with a royal umbrella and a traditional welcome, along with a floral shower and garland.
The travel vlogger revealed he had booked the Grand Royal Suite for his stay, offering views of Lake Pichola. However, upon arrival, he received an upgrade and stayed in the hotel's Presidential Suite instead. Constructed almost entirely of marble, the room is fit for royalty.
The suite is designed as a time capsule, taking guests back in time and making them feel like royalty while staying there. At the entrance is a foyer that also doubles as an office, with a regal desk and armchair. Inside, there is a dining room, a bedroom, a grand bathroom split into two parts, and a living room. The four-poster beds, decadent gold armchairs, chandeliers, a fancy mini bar, and marble-clad bathrooms featuring large jacuzzi baths and walk-in showers create an opulent atmosphere.
The balcony offers a beautiful view of the lake and the sunset. The property features lush gardens, a Lily Pond (shaped like a lily), a restaurant with incredible night views, and a swimming pool that remains cool even in high temperatures. Additionally, the vlogger shared that the hotel offers 24/7 butler service and that the culinary staff, including the head chef, personally consults with guests to tailor meals to their spice preferences and dietary needs.
The original suite Tim booked was the Grand Royal Suite, which came with a swing inside the room. The cost for the suite was £1,617 (approximately ₹2,02,502) for one night. However, he clarified that the room that he stayed in – the Presidential Suite – was considerably more expensive, and the prices do vary throughout the season. He stayed at the Taj Lake Palace during the low season.
