Chokhi Dhani Resort

The ethnic village resort of Chokhi Dhani is India's first 5 star ethnic resort. The resort showcases the grandeur of Rajasthan art and culture with its intriguing mud and thatch huts, which have every conceivable luxury that a guest might crave for.

Accommodation
The resort has 65 cottages and 8 Haveli suites. Each of the cottages are equipped with all kinds of modern comfort and amenities.

Dining
The marvelous Bindola restaurant is a much sought after multi cuisine restaurant. It offers delectable array of noveau international cuisines along with oriental and the very best of Indian cuisines which includes Tandoori, Mughlai and of course the lip smacking Rajasthani culinary delights. The ambience of Bindola restaurant is conspicuous for its delightful live Ghazal band that plays sentimental numbers to the sheer delight of the crowds.

There is also the stunning Chandni Mahal Bar, which is more renowned for its interior décor than its assortment of drinks. What is amazing about Chandni Mahal Bar is its 1000,000 mirrors on the ceilings that reflect a million rays. The silver work and gilt furniture looks very elegant. The bar is a living testimony of the artistic excellence of the Udaipur region of Rajasthan.

Meetings & Conferences
Not only is Chokhi Dhani popular for holidays but it's conference and banqueting facilities are top rate too. There is Mandani which is a stylish conference hall which can accommodate 125 persons at a time and is well equipped with the latest audio-visual gadgets that guarantees a sophisticated conference ambience so vital for the success of any conference.
There is also the Sajan Goth which is much smaller in size in comparison to Mandani and is much preferred for intimate get-togethers and meetings.

Recreation
The Tapri recreational room has provisions for billiards, table tennis, carom and chess. It is very popular because of its sheer ethnicity as it is made of bamboo and the ambience inside is very soothing, ideal for indoor games. For the high energy types, there is the marvelous sunken turquoise blue swimming pool and is modeled in the traditional royal pools of yesteryears. The health club which is rather humorously named "Tanatan" is well equipped with all kinds of modern fitness accessories like treadmills, cardio vascular machines and weights. Facilities for steam, jacuzzi and sauna also exist. The beauty salon is your one stop shop for that perfect manicure and pedicure.
