With pleasant views of the surrounding monuments, Amar Mahal is a relaxing and rejuvenating hotel set in the quiet town of Orchha.
You will be greeted with a grand yellow and white exterior complete with beautiful archways and well-kept gardens.
Orchha, in the town of Madhya Pradesh, meaning ‘hidden’ ancient medieval town, was founded in the 16th century and is home to Mughal influenced Rajput architecture such as the Jahangir Mahal, Raj Mahal and other stunning ancient temples and gardens.
A central pool area with sun loungers sits in one half of the hotel, while the other is a pleasant garden space with seating areas in archways on the rooftop above.
Guests can even dine on the rooftop while soaking in the lovely surrounding views of temples and greenery. A spread of local and Continental cuisines are on offer while local Bundeli musicians entertain guests in the evening. A small organic farm with fruit, vegetables and herbs is used by chefs daily.
