Staying at The Rajbari Bawali was a unique experience. The stunning restoration of this former Nawab palace made the atmosphere enchanting, especially at night with its magical illumination. Though the service was attentive and friendly, particularly from staff like Islam, the dining options were somewhat limited and not always easy to navigate. The ambiance and historical charm of the resort were captivating, but some aspects of maintenance could improve.
