Fateh Safari Suites

# Fateh Safari Suites, Kumbhalgarh

There are hotels near Kumbhalgarh Fort, and then there are hotels that put the fort in your window. Fateh Safari Suites sits at 1,100 m in the Aravalli Hills near Qila Kumbhalgarh, a suite-only property from the Fateh Collection with panoramic views across to the fort walls and the Marwar plains below.

Four ways to take the view

Everything here is a suite, and there are just four categories. Superior Suites give you 400 sq ft and large windows onto the hills. Valley View Suites add a jacuzzi in the washroom at the same size. Plunge Pool Suites stretch to 450 sq ft with access to the pool, and the top category combines plunge pool and jacuzzi in one 450 sq ft suite that sleeps up to five, which is rare at this size of property.

The build itself earns a mention: the site describes stone quarried locally from the Aravallis and hand-blocked textiles, with wide picture windows framing the fort and forest.
