Hotel Description
Hotel Basant Vihar Palace was built because of a 'fanciful
desire' of His Highness Maharaj Sri Ganga Singhji, a
connoisseur of architecture and one blessed with an artistic
sense. Basant Vihar Palace was designed by him to be a
separate pleasure garden adjoining the Zanana Bagh (Royal
Ladies Garden) of Lalgarh Palace. In 1993, the House of
Bikaji converted this masterpiece of architecture into a
heritage hotel - Hotel Basant Vihar Palace. An endeavour to
offer tourists a true flavour of history and royal living
(as opposed to the usual star-category hotels), Hotel Basant
Vihar Palace today, remains a 'garden of eternal spring
Hunting, as a rule, was a sport limited only to the feudal
chiefs and the Maharajas. Major game was hunted only during
the period of British Raj. The Basant Vihar Palace, built by
Maharaja Ganga Singhji, served as resort. There was
invitation to the annual sand grouse shoot in Bikaner that
no one dared miss: it simply belonged on the top of the heap
in society, so designed by Maharaja Ganga Singh at this
hunting lodge. Royalty, Indian as well as International,
Viceroys and other dignitaries have been entertained here.

Restaurant & Bar
Restaurant: In the royal kitchens of Rajasthan, food was
such serious business that it was raised to an art form. At
Hotel Basant Vihar Palace, our chefs are trained to continue
this practice. Encouraged to experiment and excel, they whip
up mouth watering Mughlai, Chinese and Continental
delicacies. As for Rajasthani cuisine, recipes passed down
the generations are what we pride ourselves in.
Bar: Not available.
