Hotel Gajner Palace | Heritage Hotel |
Gajner Palace is an incomparable "Jewel in the Thar Desert" built on the embankment of a lake by His Late Highness Maharaja Ganga Singhji of Bikaner. During winter even now, this palace with its beautiful lake and surrounded wooded areas become the home of different species of migratory birds, most renowned amongst them being the Imperial Sand Grouse. Endangered antelopes like Black Bucks, Nilgais, Chinkaras and other animals like the Wild Boar roam freely in this area which is now a preserved sanctuary. There are 10 historic suites and 28 well appointed rooms open to travellers. Authentic game recipes have been adapted to create "Shikari" dishes out of chicken and mutton. One can experience the true romance of the desert in the comfort of Gajner Palace. A long drive flanking the vast lawns with rows of trees, fairly big pools and red sandstone quarters take you to the main building. The great Portico extends a respectful and dignified welcome to the visitor. The sculptural art on the pillars supporting this amazing high- ceilinged Portico, along with the decorative carving, evokes the senses. The wide retina of stately staircase lead you up to the reception which extends a warmth of hospitality to the visitor.
