It was my birthday weekend, so we decided to visit a place which was neither too far nor too crowded. While googling, we stumbled upon this beautiful, yet lesser visited place. We found Neemrana Hill Fort Kesroli good enough to spend time from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Located in Alwar, Rajasthan, it is one of the oldest heritage hotels in India. Hotel architecture seems to be quite authentic and I believe, they have kept it as original as their other known resorts. It is approximately 157 kms from New Delhi and will take roughly 3 hours to reach. It is situated in a quaint place but in the vicinity of several other attractions like Sariska Tiger Sanctuary (where we visited on International Tiger Day – 29th July 2017), Kankwari fort, Bharatpur bird sanctuary, Neelkanth temple and other local sites.
When we reached there, we were totally astonished by looking at the place. We were taken to our room after doing all the basic formalities at the reception. We saw our room and wanted to upgrade it, but couldn’t do so as the hotel was already sold out. The room was a bit small, but all other amenities were good. So we stayed there. As the hotel was actually a fort, rooms are not very modernized but will give an old charm.
We read a lot about watching sunrise and sunset from the terrace, so we reached there early evening. Couldn’t get to watch the sunset because of rain, but the weather was quite pleasant. Next morning, we woke up early to see the sunrise and believe me, it was amazing and truly a treat to the eyes.
It’s a great place for adults and kids too. Sightseeing from all corners of the hotel terrace, Cycling, Badminton, Indoor games, a mini library at the hotel reception, Spa indulgence and a common TV room are few of the activities you can do if you want to keep yourself occupied. There’s a beautiful swimming pool for kids and adults. The best time to go for swimming is in the morning as most of the guests are too lazy to swim and you will have ample time and space to enjoy.
It’s a serene place where one can have longer chats without being worried about other chores. And if you are lucky enough to get the rains in the night until early morning and then a pleasant weather throughout the day, you will be over whelmed by the amount of time you would have to spend in other activities the hotel has to offer.
The staff here is courteous, not overly polite yet helpful. Room service is not available, but if you want something special for baby, they can provide in the room (Depends on availability). Lunch and dinner are a bit on the higher side in terms of cost, but if you wish to experience the authentic Rajasthani meal, nothing can be more relishing.
Special focus is given to maintain the greenery in and around the place. There was a small terrace next to our room which was again full of green grass and a small tree. One can have a complete view of the village nearby and can actually see animal grazing, people working and farms all four sides.
We booked the stay for Saturday for a reason. They have a beautiful cultural evening from seven in the evening for an hour. Once you have witnessed the show, your experience will be complete. We enjoyed every bit of it. During the show, you will be served beverages and drinks with accompaniments (chargeable) which will definitely enhance the fun quotient. Performers were quite interactive and welcomed each guest by pouring rose petals. Again, there is something to feel special about.
When you are short of holidays and considering to have a weekend escape, it’s a perfect getaway for family vacation. As it’s nearer to Delhi, a lot of guests go there to celebrate their special days.
Suggestion - Do not forget to have a self-sponsored property round. Click pictures for memories and try out the sumptuous food.
