Best hotels in Udaipur
Nine hotels that people in Udaipur recommend on Reddit and X — the real reasons, and the caveats.
Lake-view recommendations at Hilltop, the grounds-versus-room-view trade-off at Trident, and location-led choices around Fatehsagar and Swaroop Sagar. Taj and Moustache recommendations are pooled across named city hotels, with each property's details kept separate. Value and transport caveats stay visible.
Hotels inside the mapped Udaipur city boundary only, not standalone hostels or out-of-city stays. Pooled brand recommendations are not reviews of every property. Thin name-only hotel suggestions remain private; this is not a comprehensive accommodation catalogue.
Drawn from real discussions in r/udaipur, r/Rajasthan and on X — nine hotels in Udaipur that people actually recommend. Each one shows why people rate it, the caveats they raised, and a link straight to the original comment — so you read the source yourself instead of trusting a laundered rating. Places cluster around Fatehsagar and Ambamata.

Places
1.Hilltop Palace Hotel, Fatehsagar
15 people recommendvia r/udaipur
Lake views are the recurring reason people recommend Hilltop Palace. Several commenters single out the outlook, and one also praises the rooms and terrace. One guest enjoyed the lake-facing room and breakfast but found the room compact and dinner poor value. Another recommendation points to access to the main sightseeing spots. The strongest agreement is about the view, rather than room size or dining.
Fatehsagar
2.Hotel Lakend, Fatehsagar
13 people recommend, 1 warns against itvia r/udaipur
Lakend draws repeated hotel recommendations, including praise for its Fatehsagar location. One commenter highlights the pool and restaurants, and a guest reports a positive stay. The trade-off is how much time to spend on the property: another commenter advises against it for a resort-style break, describing good rooms and service but limited space and little to do on-site. A separate warning says sightseeing requires cab trips. The evidence supports considering the location, not expecting an expansive resort.
Fatehsagar
3.Taj hotels (Udaipur city)
11 people recommendvia r/udaipur, X, r/Rajasthan
Recommendations are pooled across Taj's Udaipur-city hotels, with Lake Palace representing the brand here; they are not all reviews of that hotel. One commenter singles out Lake Palace for its island heritage setting. Aravali is suggested separately for a nature-oriented stay, while Fateh Prakash is recommended for its City Palace location. These are different settings to choose between, not interchangeable accounts of one property.

4.The Lalit Laxmi Vilas
9 people recommendvia r/udaipur
The Lalit Laxmi Vilas is repeatedly suggested as a Udaipur hotel, usually in short recommendations. The more specific advice concerns the setting: one commenter recommends it for staying near Fatehsagar but says a Lake Pichola outlook suited their own trip better. Another describes the hotel as a heritage property and praises its hospitality and value. It is a recurring choice, though the detailed room and stay reports are limited.

5.Trident Udaipur
9 people recommend, 2 warn against itvia r/udaipur
Trident has repeated backing as a hotel, but the useful distinction is between its grounds and its room views. One guest praises the food, hospitality and lawns beside the lake, while noting the lack of lake views from the rooms. Another guest liked the spacious property but found it somewhat dated, with limited room outlooks; that guest preferred the view from the jetty. A separate visitor praises the lakeside setting. Warnings include needing cabs for sightseeing and one person's dislike of its showy style.

6.Moustache hotels (Udaipur)
7 people recommendvia r/udaipur
Recommendations are pooled across Moustache's Udaipur hotels, represented here by the explicitly recommended Verandah; they do not include standalone hostel recommendations. Verandah's lake views and ambience draw praise from more than one commenter, including a guest who stayed there. One recommendation highlights its food and old-city setting; another mentions its pool and restaurant. Luxuria is a separate hotel option in the same pool, described by one commenter as lakeside with sunset views. Those Luxuria details should not be read as Verandah features.

7.Swaroop Vilas
5 people recommendvia r/udaipur
Swaroop Vilas has several hotel recommendations, with the most useful detail about its surroundings. One commenter likes its Sangria bar and says Lake Pichola and nearby cafés can be reached on foot. Another places it among mid-range options by Swaroop Sagar, while a third suggests it as an affordable lakeside choice. The recommendations offer location and relative-value guidance rather than detailed reports of room quality.

8.Brahma Niwas, Ambamata
5 people recommendvia r/udaipur
Brahma Niwas is suggested for travellers weighing the old city against easier road access. One commenter recommends it when bringing a car; another prefers its position outside the old city's lanes for transport and considers it more spacious than the Lal Ghat alternative. A separate recommendation places it among mid-range choices near Swaroop Sagar. These are location-led suggestions rather than detailed accounts of stays, so the evidence is more useful for choosing a base than judging the rooms.
Ambamata
9.Chunda Palace
5 people recommend, 2 warn against itvia r/udaipur
Chunda Palace has repeated recommendations, with more detailed praise from a guest who liked the service and would return. Another commenter praises the rooms and hospitality. Value draws disagreement: two commenters warn that it exceeds the budgets being discussed, while the returning guest describes a positive stay. One recommendation includes it among city hotels with views but distinguishes those from full resort properties.
