Our property was built almost a 100 years ago by Rao Bijay Singh, the 16th descendant of the erstwhile Masuda Istimrardari (a category higher than Jagirdars of the Rajputana) as a getaway retreat. About the same time he founded the town of Bijaynagar, also named after him. The history of Masuda royal family dates back to Rao Jagmal ( early 16th century), the founder of the Mertiya clan of Rathore Rajputs, by far the most valiant of all Rajput clan.
Well located between major tourist destinations like Jaipur-Udaipur, Jaipur-Jodhpur, Jodhpur-Sawai Madhopur, just over an hour from Pushkar-Ajmer, Chittorgarh, Todgarh/Raoli Sanctuary. Away from noise and pollution set amidst vast farms, orchards and rare trees. The very well laid out artistic building, a virtual art gallery, ideal for a lunch stop-overs too. The palace is set over 50 acres of orchard and is a majestic heritage retreat along with being a stop over for visiting the great Indian bustard reserve at Sokhlia.
We has spacious rooms, namely ‘heritage’ (in the main palace), ‘garden’ rooms and ‘burj’ rooms. There are big rooms inclusive of heritage suites that are equipped with all modern facilities.
The rooms are adorned with original delicately painted walls and ceilings which gives the place an air of peace and tranquillity. Most rooms have original period furniture, works of art and early prints of famous contemporary Indian artists like Amrita Sher Gill, Sharda Ukil and Jamini Roy etc.
