Experience

Dining at Mihir Garh is a delectable experience with so many beautiful locations in which to enjoy the cuisine which ranges from the traditional to continental; something to tempt every palate. Choose from the dining room, airy in summer and cosy in winter or perhaps one of the inner courtyards or a roof terrace for an intimate romantic dinner under the stars. Awake to the sound of the birds and the sight of the sunrise and be taken to a secluded spot in the wilderness where a lavish al fresco breakfast feast awaits complete with bread still warm from the bakery; a divine way to start the morning. Partake in a Royal picnic, reminiscent of times gone by, with courteous attendants, live music and delicious food laid on crisp white linens in the surroundings of an ornate tent, all combining to create a memory that will be cherished for ever.

There is a plethora of activities to be enjoyed at Mihir Garh with the Village Safari being one of the highlights which enables guests to experience the real rural Rajasthan. Visit the people of the local village in their mud houses, see the men clad in their turbans and the shy women in their traditional dress. Go to the market, rich with local wares and share in the vibrant local culture and heritage. Mihir Garh is also a delight for equestrian lovers and offers guests the opportunity to ride the magnificent Marwari horses. Itineraries are tailor made to suit the individual but include riding across the wilderness seeing a variety of wildlife and birds while enjoying the rich culture of the land, whether on an all-day ride or just for sunrise or sunset .Keen riders will enjoy the extensive three or four day rides which include overnight stays in mobile camps or other heritage properties such as their sister property Rohet Garh.

Those who choose to relax in the peaceful surroundings of the hotel may wish to learn how to cook traditional Rajasthani food through a range of culinary demonstrations and workshops. The delicious recipes all come from the books of the late Thakurari Sahbia Javenda Kumari, who was the mother of the owner of Mihir Garh. If even that is too strenuous, there is a beautiful infinity pool in which to laze or indulge in some real pampering at Mihir Garh’s Tulsi Spa, complete with treatments designed specifically to relax and rejuvenate.
