Discription
Heritage Hotel Since olden days, the Maharaos
of Kotah (as Kota was formerly called) had always
lived in the medieval Fort inside the city. Wanting
a modern palace for his personal use, Maharaja
Umed Singh II settled for nothing but the best.
He commissioned Sir Swinton Jacob, a distinguished
officer of the Royal Engineers in the British
Army, to design the building. As expected, Umed
Bhawan came up in 1905 in the prevalent Indo-Sarcenic
style. Plentiful supply of white Khimach and Pink
Sandstone from nearby quarries helped, while Italian
marble, among other things, had to be imported
for flooring.
