Samode Palace, building in India
Samode Palace is a luxury hotel housed in a historic palace building in Rajasthan that was originally constructed as a residence for a local ruler. The structure combines traditional Indian architecture with spacious rooms, courtyards, and decorated halls arranged across multiple levels.
The building dates from the 16th century and was constructed by a local ruling family as their administrative seat and personal residence. Over the centuries it was gradually expanded and converted into a hotel in the early 2000s.
The palace takes its name from its founding family and the surrounding region that has shaped this area for centuries. Visitors can observe traditional architectural details and decorative elements throughout that reflect local craftsmanship.
The palace is located in a rural area outside the city of Jaipur and requires a short drive from the capital. Guests should be aware that the setting is somewhat remote, though on-site activities and proximity to regional attractions help compensate for this.
The palace preserves several rooms furnished as they were during the original family's time, with authentic furniture and objects from that era. This offers visitors a rare glimpse into the daily life of a royal family from several centuries past.
