Amanbagh

Amanbagh derives its name from the words aman, meaning ‘peaceful' in Sanskrit and bagh, meaning ‘garden' in Hindi. It lies within a walled compound that was once used by the Maharajah of Alwar to site his mobile hunting camps in search of the elusive tigers known to roam the nearby hills. Long since abandoned, the trees and vegetation continue to thrive due to a reliable water supply drawn from an adjacent lake.

The resort is every bit a modern day “palace,” conceived in the present, but humbly paying homage to the traditional architecture and design that has prevailed throughout the past.

There are four categories of accommodation at Amanbagh. The Courtyard Haveli Room: eight rooms are located on the ground level of two, two-storey structures on either side of the swimming pool. The Garden Haveli Room: located on the ground level are eight rooms. The Terrace Haveli Room: eight rooms are located on the upper level of the two, two-storey structures. And the Pool Pavilion: sixteen pavilions are located on the perimeter of the resort and offer their own private swimming pool and spacious garden.

The resort comprises a main building that raises over three levels. On the first level is the arrival area that leads to the reception hall and onto a shaded court, bordered on one side by the Dining Room and on the other, by the Lounge. Rising from the reception area is a sweeping staircase that leads to the Library and an outdoor terrace. Two external staircases lead to the Roof Terrace that is elevated above a canopy of trees and provides sweeping views over the surrounding landscape. Beyond the main building is a swimming pool, informal dining area and wading pool, all set within landscaped grounds.
