The Samode Haveli was built over 150 years ago by Rawal Sheo
Singhji, a Prime Mini ster
in the Jaipur court, who
belonged to the family of Samode, tracing their relation to the
Jaipur Maharaja the fabled Prithviraj Singhji the 17th prince of
the Kacchawala Rajputs.
It was built as the Samode Royal family’s suburban manor house
and was converted into a heritage hotel in 1988. Today it stands
as a reminder of a halcyonic past offering moments of subtle
luxury. The property was constructed
facing North away from the burning Rajasthan sun and features a
spectacular painted dining room, an airy verandah and an
elephant ramp at the entrance which was specially constructed in
the 1940’s for the marriage ceremony of the late Rawal Sahib’s
aunt.
