The Oberoi Udaivilas

Udaipur, India
The Oberoi Udaivilas — hotel photograph
Oberoi Udaivilas stands in 50 acres of landscaped gardens on the tranquil side of Udaipur’s Lake Pichola, backed by the Aravalli range.

It’s epic in scale and standard, but that doesn’t get lost in the service, which is personalised and attentive, starting from your rose petal welcome. With sandstone walls surrounding decorated courtyards and marble in abundance, the hotel feels palatial without feeling too formal. Rooms are spoiling but calming, the whitewashed walls letting jewel-toned soft furnishings sing. Facilities include two restaurants, one with a spectacular terrace, a bar, a spa, and multiple pools. This is one of Oberoi’s finest properties

What we love

    • Located on a tranquil section of Lake Pichola’s lakeshore, away from the bustle of Udaipur but close enough to enjoy the views of the City Palace
    • A spacious hotel with expansive and elegant rooms, a rarity in busy Udaipur
    • Many of the rooms have access to a private or semi-private pool
    • From the moment you arrive, you’ll be well looked after
    • Dine on the terrace at Chandni for sweeping views across the lake to the City Palace

The location may be a bit far out for anyone who wants to step outside their hotel and explore but it’s an easy water-taxi ride from Udaipur’s main attractions

Families are welcome and kids will be spoiled by the Oberoi team who run an extensive programme of activities to keep little ones entertained, from clay play and block printing to treasure hunts and kite making.

Additional beds can be added to rooms and children’s menus, high chairs, cots, and babysitting are available on request.

Oberoi Udaivilas is enveloped by expansive gardens on the calmer western shore of Lake Pichola in Udaipur. It’s about 4 miles by car to Udaipur’s main attractions or a shorter boat ride.

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.
