We checked in the hotel and rushed to the meetings. As the 5 hr drive from Delhi and back to back meetings with our prospects tired us down, we couldn't go for sight seeing. My hubby suggested that we could catch up with his school friend. We went to this Heritage hotel "Samode Haveli " for the decided meet.Jaipur is filled with Heritage and Boutique Hotels. This article portrays my experience with one of them.Through pink city's narrow lanes and hustle bustles, we arrived at the place. The streets to the hotel were old bylanes which just set me off and had me assuming that the haveli will be an old property with those dull lightings. Maybe it was my fatigue which made me think like that but I got flabbergasted the moment I entered the property. I loved the whole vibe it reflected.Inside the hotelAfter the main entrance, corridors and a small archaic gate, I was inside and was awestruck with the ambience. It has a square spread sit out, surrounded by greens, fountain in the middle and lights. There was this beautiful classical music playing in the background. We were meeting a friend Yugdeep Singh, who also happened to be the property manager. We were escorted to the terrace where he was waiting.
Samode Haveli restaurant: A lot of foreigners prefer staying at the Samode Palace(the haveli is converted into a hotel), but its slightly heavy on the pocket. To get an experience, we decided to relish one of our meals here. (PS: the butter chicken here is to die for)
