K Raheja Chalet Hotels Udaipur Resort: An Upper-Upscale Destination in the City of Lakes
Price on Request
K Raheja Chalet Hotels Udaipur Resort takes shape around the former Inder Residency Resort & Spa, an asset that Chalet Hotels Limited acquired for a total consideration of Rs 171 crore, marking the K Raheja Corp-backed hospitality company's first entry into one of India's most sought-after leisure markets. The board's approval came with a clear timeline: the board approved the acquisition at its meeting on April 24, 2026, with completion targeted by May 15, 2026. What began as a mid-market wedding hotel is now being reworked into a resort built for a different register of guest.
The scale of the setting is the resort's founding asset. The property is a 144-room hotel spread across 8.2 acres, featuring approximately 3 acres of lawn area, large banqueting facilities, two restaurants and a bar. This scale, particularly its expansive outdoor and banqueting infrastructure, positions it well for the wedding, MICE and leisure travel segments that drive demand in Udaipur, a city built around lakeside ceremony and celebration.
The design direction follows Chalet Hotels' established grammar of repositioning rather than rebuilding from scratch. The repositioning into the upper upscale segment is consistent with Chalet's portfolio strategy, and the company has also launched its own premium lifestyle brand ATHIVA, described as a new-age premium lifestyle hospitality brand with a bold, experience-first vision, under which this Udaipur property could eventually sit. The intent is refurbishment with intention, not simple renovation.
Udaipur's timing for this kind of investment is difficult to overstate. Udaipur, known as the City of Lakes, is a significant heritage and luxury tourism hub that attracts both domestic and international travellers, and the broader Rajasthan circuit, from Jaipur to Jodhpur, continues to draw travellers seeking culture-rich stays. Entering now, with an asset already built for celebration, gives the resort a head start that a ground-up development could not offer.
What emerges is a resort under construction with a defined heritage and a defined ambition, backed by an operator whose scale in Indian hospitality is already established.

Goverdhan Vilas, Shikarbadi Road, Ekling Nagar, Udaipur 313001 · Hiran Magri · Udaipur
The resort sits at Goverdhan Vilas on Shikarbadi Road in Ekling Nagar, part of Udaipur's Hiran Magri precinct. Inder Residency Resort & Spa Udaipur is within a 10-minute drive of City Palace and Lake Pichola, placing the address within easy reach of the heritage core that defines the city's identity as a leisure and wedding destination. The surrounding belt blends residential neighbourhoods with garden estates, offering a quieter counterpoint to the lakefront bustle while remaining connected to it.
This positioning gives the address particular value for a hospitality asset built around events and celebrations. The complex sits within lush, verdant grounds just over half-a-mile from famed Pichola Lake, and the surrounding grounds provide the scale that palace-city hotels closer to the lake often cannot match. For a resort oriented toward weddings, MICE and leisure travel, that combination of proximity and space is the address's defining advantage.

Udaipur's established position as a destination wedding and MICE hub supports sustained demand for large-format resort infrastructure, reinforcing the rationale for the property's ongoing upgrade.
The resort sits within reach of Maharana Pratap Airport at Dabok, roughly 30 km away, linking the property to domestic and regional air traffic feeding Udaipur's leisure economy.
Rajasthan's wider tourism ecosystem, spanning Jaipur, Jodhpur and boutique retreats, continues to draw travellers pairing culture-rich breaks with experiential stays, widening the catchment for Udaipur hospitality.
The Udaipur acquisition comes alongside Chalet Hotels' land banking in other leisure hotspots, signalling a coordinated push into India's tourism-driven hospitality markets beyond its metro-anchored portfolio.
The property's proximity to Udaipur's railway station supports convenient access for wedding parties, corporate groups and leisure travellers arriving from across the region.
The resort is being repositioned by Chalet Hotels Limited, part of K Raheja Corp, a company that operates 11 hotels and resorts with 3,389 keys under globally recognised brands including JW Marriott, The Westin and Novotel.
The 8.2-acre property carries 144 rooms alongside nearly 3 acres of lawn area and large banqueting facilities, giving it the physical scale that large weddings and conferences in Udaipur require.
The acquisition marks Chalet Hotels' first foray into Rajasthan, chosen specifically for Udaipur's strength as a wedding, MICE and leisure tourism market with strong long-term potential.
Rather than an incremental refresh, the resort is being repositioned into the upper upscale segment, consistent with Chalet's broader portfolio strategy and its premium lifestyle brand ATHIVA.
The address in Ekling Nagar keeps the resort within a short drive of the City Palace and Lake Pichola, anchoring it to the lakes and palaces that define Udaipur's tourism identity.
The property already carries two restaurants, a bar, and a large existing event footprint, giving the repositioning a functioning hospitality base rather than a ground-up build.
