Kankarwa Haveli has a prime location in the
heart of the Old City. It is directly on the
shore of Lake Pichola, where the water laps
under its windows and against its walls. A five
minute walk will take you to the City Palace.
Only a short distance in another direction is
the famous Jagdish Temple. When you enter this
beautiful haveli, you realise immediately that
you have found the perfect haven to restore
your travel weary spirit. Soft cream-coloured
walls are accentuated by Jewel tones of blooming
bougainvillea. Greenery is displayed in the
lovely courtyard and on all levels of the haveli.
You will be met in the reception area by Janardan
Singh, who is a wealth of information. Ask him
anything regarding where to go and how to get
there. He knows everyone and his advice is invaluable.
You will enjoy his winning smile and scintillating
wit. The family and staff are committed to serving
you and making your stay comfortable, enjoyable
and memorable.
