The Little Prince Heritage Home

The location is very interesting. It's just across the foot bridge from the heavy tourist area, meaning three things: from the very nearby Ghat you get the best views of the palace and facades over the lakes that make Udaipur famous. Also, few tourists seem to come to this side making it a much more authentic experience than the noise surrounding the tourist zone. Third, it is situated in a normal neighbourhood so it is easy to experience daily life of locals and make friends with people who aren't trying to sell you something. All the attractions are within an easy and interesting 5-10 minute walk and getting lost while meandering through labrinthine narrow side streets is not only fun but great insight into local culture - you can't really do that in the areas around the palace. Also, staff are great and friendly while affording privacy and go out of their way to meet requests. Relaxing in the lounge is quiet and affords awesome views of the Aravali hills and Monsoon Palace especially around dusk. Those views are not easily possible from the tourist zone due to building obstructions. There is also an open air rooftop lounge. Unless you want pretention, this place has the most optimized of all that's available in Udaipur and offers it at a remarkably valuable price point. The WiFi is good too.

Some small devices (like remote controls) needed new batteries - this would have been easily fixed except I didn't report it because it didn't matter.

The location was good and the staff were very friendly
