New High above the ghats of the sacred Narmada, in the weaving town of Maheshwar, stands the 18th-century fort-palace of Ahilyabai Holkar — still in the family, and now opening its courtyards to a handful of guests. Nineteen rooms across six old buildings, three walled courtyards, a garden pool, and a daily table grown in the fort's own beds. One of central India's great stays.
Not just the room: drivers, trains, guides, the lot. Tell us the shape of the trip and Maria from Indiaesque connects you with a vetted local operator who builds it to your budget. No call centres, no mark-up mystery.
