Hidden away in a secluded area, the hotel is surrounded by well laid out gardens , fragrant flower beds and soothing lily ponds. And Though it is completely refurbished from the inside, great care has been taken to preserve the original character of the rooms - 21 in all including 3 suites, all of which are fully air conditioned and fitted with satellite televisions.

The Basant Vihar Palace was built because of a fanciful desire of His Highness Maharaja Ganga Singh ji, a connosseur of architecture and one blessed with an artistic sense. It was designed by him to be a separate pleasure garden adjoining the Zanana bagh (Royal Ladies Garden). In 1993, the House of Bikaji converted this masterpiece of architecture in to a heritage hotel - Hotel Basant Vihar Palace. An endeavour to offer tourists a true flavour of history and royal living ( as opposed to the usual star-category hotels ), Hotel Basant Vihar Palace today, remains a garden of eternal spring.
