Set off on a magical ride to the 15th-century heritage hotel on the Delhi-Jaipur highway. With seven palace wings, it really is one of the most interesting hotels to be created from what was once a warrior’s fort. Built on several levels, the architecture means you can swim out of your room to join the larger pool or just wade in the cove around your private space. Hanging garden walks, historical and mysterious hikes take you nine floors underground, while upwards treks see you conquering dunes that have stood the tests of time. For the adventurous ones, they have the first zip line tour in the world, and you can have an aerial view of the town below. Built on the two-million-year-old Aravalli Hills, this 553-year-old fort, turned palace hotel, is conveniently located on the Delhi-Jaipur highway. It has been installed with lifts to explore the two-tiered property, but the entire architecture will take you back centuries.
