Ramathra Fort

Ramathra, India
Ramathra Fort — hotel photograph
Perched on a hillside in rural Rajasthan, Ramathra Fort has been lovingly restored into a boutique hotel, complete with the original ramparts, expansive tented suites, and even a Jacuzzi on one of the turrets.

Come here to escape India’s frenetic cities, enjoying walks to local villages, birdwatching by the lake, and sunset boating. The owners, Ravi and Gitanjali, will welcome you with open arms and share their knowledge and passion for the region.

Dine on home-cooked, locally sourced meals, which are all included in a stay here. A wonderful choice to break up the journey between Ranthambore and Jaipur.

It’s remote and there aren’t any shops, bars, or restaurants nearby–but that’s all part of its charm

There isn’t currently a pool but there is a Jacuzzi up on the ramparts with incredible views

Limited mobile signal and no TV reception make this ideal for switching off

Children of all ages are welcome at Ramathra Fort and each room can accommodate one extra child. No cots are available and there are a few hazards like stone staircases around the property, so we feel it’s better for teens or kids above 4
The owners of the fort work hard to preserve the natural environment surrounding the property and support the local community. They’ve planted several trees to reforest the area and use recycled water from the hotel to maintain them. Most of the staff are local and all the produce is organically grown in the surrounding villages.

What our travellers say

We went to Sri Lanka as a three-generation family of three. The superb trip was organised by Samanthie and the team and it's difficult to see how it could have been bettered.
Roy Wood (February 2026)
Red Dot organised the most wonderful 3-week holiday for us. Samanthie built a trip around the amazing sights we had requested visiting, together with her own suggestions and a wide mix of hotels, which gave us the flavours of both traditional Sri Lanka and the sleek, stylish contemporary version of the country. Our Driver made the whole experience incredibly special for us.
Alie C (February 2026)
I can’t thank Cherylle and the Red Dot team enough for their meticulous planning of our family holiday to India travelling through Rajasthan over Christmas. As a family of all adults, every suggestion from daily activities to hotel choices was simply perfect. We travelled through Delhi, Ranthambore (an unforgettable tiger safari!), Jaipur and Agra and I truly feel we experienced the very best of each destination while moving at a relaxed, well thought out pace
Daisy Stanton (February 2026)
My partner arranged a holiday trip at fairly short notice to Sri Lanka with Red Dot on a recommendation, Samanthie was so patient & helpful with her suggested itinerary which we followed with some minor amendments. On arrival at Colombo we met Manjula our chauffeur/guide who was absolutely brilliant!
Andrew S (February 2026)
Dulmini and the Red Dot Team arranged a fantastic trip for us around Assam and North East India. Faultless service. I cannot recommend them more highly.
Martin Thomas (February 2026)
Wonderful company. Our holiday in Sri Lanka was perfect. Local knowledge made all the difference
Sandra Nicholson  (February 2026)
We looked up, and communicated with umpteen tour operators. Though Red Dot seemed to have offices in Sri Lanka and the UK, they seemed to have the best reviews. We were fortunate enough to correspond with Cherylle, who not only assured us of the safety of our friend, but created a personalised, and flexible, itinerary which we could not have done ourselves.
Jayant Banerji (February 2026)
A 14-day tour with Red Dot Tours was the perfect antidote to the bleak UK winter. After a glowing recommendation from a friend, we contacted Red Dot Tours and were not disappointed. Our consultant, Lahiru, curated a seamless itinerary. Throughout the planning phase, Lahiru was incredibly responsive; the final itinerary—delivered via a user-friendly 'Guest Portal'—was impressively detailed, covering every hotel stay and excursion.
