Udaipur has more choice for a destination wedding than ever. The lake palaces on Pichola still get the most requests, but most of the new capacity has come from large resorts in the Aravalli hills and a run of new hotels opened in 2025. This guide covers the 14 Udaipur hotels we book most often: what each costs, what it does well, and what to check before you sign.
Prices below are indicative. They come from publicly listed starting rates checked in October 2026. The final quote always depends on your dates, guest count, number of functions and the size of your room block.
Based on rates the hotels list publicly (before tax):
Décor, entertainment, bar and transfers come on top. Our Rajasthan destination wedding budget guide puts a mid-range wedding of 150–250 guests at about ₹2–4 crore, with a full breakdown by wedding size.

A palace-style hotel on the shore of Lake Pichola, facing the City Palace. It has 80 rooms and suites, plus three Arq by The Leela villas added in 2024. Weddings use the Outer Courtyard, the Croquet Lawn and the Marwar Terrace. It suits a main guest list of about 150–200; larger weddings need a second hotel. See venue details.
A 30-acre resort on Lake Pichola, built in the style of a Mewar palace and open since 2002. It has under 90 rooms, many with semi-private or private pools. Indoor halls are small (Chandra Mahal takes about 110 guests), so bigger functions depend on outdoor spaces the hotel approves for your dates. Best for small, very high-end weddings. See venue details.
An Oberoi Group resort on 28 acres next to Udaivilas, with over 135 rooms. The Theme Deck Lawn is listed for 300–800 guests, so you get a lakeside reception with most guests staying on site, at a lower listed rate than the palaces. The indoor halls take about 30 guests each. See venue details.
A royal palace inside the City Palace complex, built by Maharana Fateh Singh and opened as a Taj hotel in 2020. Its Durbar Hall, with a 1,000 kg crystal chandelier, is one of the most sought-after wedding halls in Udaipur. With 65 rooms, many guests usually stay at a second hotel nearby. See venue details.
India's first Raffles, opened in 2021 on a private 21-acre island in Udai Sagar Lake. The island has 101 rooms, with 36 more at Raffles Lakeshore on the shore. The Great Park lawn is listed for about 1,000 guests. Worth knowing: every arrival and departure runs by boat, so transfers need careful scheduling. See venue details.
A 26-acre resort near Fateh Sagar Lake, opened in December 2025, with about 140 rooms. Its Grand Vintage Lawn is listed for about 3,000 seated guests, and there is a stepwell-style amphitheatre and a rooftop. The kitchen is pure vegetarian, which many families specifically look for. See venue details.
Marriott's first hotel in Udaipur, opened in April 2025 on Badi Road with views towards Fateh Sagar. It has 226 rooms and more than 65,000 sq ft of event space, led by the 10,000 sq ft Grand Crystal Ballroom, the Jasper Courtyard and the Mewar Royal Rooftop. A strong choice when you want reliable indoor spaces. See venue details.
An 18-acre palace-style resort at Sisarma with 327 rooms and over 100,000 sq ft of event space. The Jashn Palace Garden takes up to 2,000 guests, The Jewel ballroom is 13,500 sq ft, and Chand Baori, a stepwell amphitheatre, seats up to 600 for pheras. It has no lake views, but very few Udaipur hotels can host 300+ staying guests and every function in one place. See venue details.
A 90-acre resort in Bhujda village, about 25 minutes from the city, with more than 240 cottages and villas. The Aravali Ballroom takes up to about 1,500 for a reception, and the Aravali Lawn up to 1,000. One of the better-value options for a large wedding with everyone on site. See venue details.
A 27-acre Taj resort in the Aravalli hills with rooms, cottages and luxury tents. The Aravali Lawn (39,000+ sq ft) suits outdoor pheras and receptions of 800+, and there are three more lawns for haldi, mehendi and welcome dinners. See venue details.
A hilltop villa resort opened in 2024, with 150 villas and suites. The Infinity Lawn is listed for up to 3,000 guests and the Revel Ballroom (16,000 sq ft) for up to 600. Good for large weddings where families want villa-style stays. See venue details.
A villa resort on about 50 acres, around 20 km from the city, with villas and suites that include private and semi-private pools. Two Celebration Lawns take roughly 400–800 guests each. It suits couples who want a luxury villa experience for close family. See venue details.
A hilltop resort by Lemon Tree Hotels on five acres at Sisarma, with 139 rooms and views over the lakes. The Ekaara Ballroom takes about 300 and the Ekaara Terrace 200–250, so it works best for mid-size weddings. See venue details.
Udaipur's newest Taj, opened in October 2025 in a restored 150-year-old royal hunting lodge at Nahar Mangra, about 15 minutes from the airport. It has 155 rooms on eight acres, a 35,000 sq ft Main Lawn and a 6,404 sq ft ballroom. Because it is new, published wedding rates are still limited. See venue details.

How to read this table:
To compare hotels on the same basis, we worked out an approximate cost for a two-night wedding using each hotel's listed rates:

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Trident, Udaipur | ₹21.8 lakh | ₹18.0 lakh | ₹7.2 lakh | ₹46.9 lakh |

These figures cover rooms and food only. Décor, entertainment, photography, bar and transfers are not included and are quoted separately. Hotels whose rates are listed as on request are not included. Treat them as a starting point for comparison, not a quote; the hotel's actual offer depends on your dates and the size of your booking.
Most luxury hotels in Udaipur insist on their own kitchen. This matters if your family wants a specialist caterer, for example for Marwari, Jain or South Indian food.

| The Ananta, Udaipur | In-house only | Panel decorators only |
| Marriott Udaipur | In-house only | Outside decorators allowed |
| The Oberoi Udaivilas | In-house only | Panel decorators only |
| Trident, Udaipur | In-house only | Panel decorators only |
| The Leela Palace Udaipur | In-house and outside allowed | Outside decorators allowed |
| Aurika, Udaipur | In-house and outside allowed | Outside decorators allowed |
| Wyndham Grand Udaipur Fatehsagar Lake | In-house, pure vegetarian kitchen | Confirm with hotel |
| Fairmont, Raffles, Taj Fateh Prakash, Taj Lalit Bagh, Holymont, Mementos | Confirm with hotel | Confirm with hotel |
Policies change and are often negotiable for large bookings, sometimes against a fee.
Many families who book Udaipur live in the USA, UK, Canada or the Gulf. Hold the room block first, because overseas guests book late and can't easily switch hotels. Plan transfers around international arrivals into Udaipur via Delhi or Mumbai, and agree a payment schedule that works across time zones. Our guide to planning an Indian wedding from the USA, UK or Canada covers this in detail.
| Area | What to confirm |
|---|---|
| Room block | Number of rooms, categories, nights, and the date unused rooms are released |
| Venues | Which space is held for each function, and the indoor backup for every outdoor event |
| Catering | Minimum guarantee per meal, tasting dates, and charges if a specialist caterer is allowed |
| Décor | Vendor policy, set-up and dismantling time, and any royalty or entry fee for outside vendors |
| Music | Sound limits and the cut-off time for outdoor music, especially at lakeside properties |
| Transfers | Airport transfers, and boat schedules for island or Lake Pichola venues |
| Payments | Deposit schedule, cancellation terms, and what happens if guest numbers drop |

October to March is Udaipur's main wedding season. The weather is pleasant and most muhurats fall in these months, so the large lawns and lakeside hotels go first on weekend dates.
Fix your muhurat early and check hotels the same week. See our Hindu wedding dates 2027 calendar, vivah muhurat 2028 and Tamil muhurtham dates 2027.
Our team has more than 50 years of combined luxury hospitality experience and long-standing relationships with Udaipur's hotels. We check your dates across several properties at once, hold the room block and venues, and confirm everything with the hotel on your behalf. If you want full planning after that, we handle décor, catering and on-ground coordination too.

Usually not. Listed rates are before tax. GST is 18% on rooms above ₹7,500 a night and 18% on food and beverage at luxury hotels.
