With live streaming, engaging fun games and activities for the guests, curated theme decors, a choice of grand menus, and dedicated wedding managers to take care of all the details from planning to execution of the wedding, the guests can relax and enjoy the momentous occasion.

Sterling Aravalli Udaipur is inspired by the unique haveli architecture that is synonymous with palatial Rajasthani design, with jharokhas adorning the façade and inner walls. The 67 well-appointed large rooms and suites include Classic Rooms, Haveli Rooms, Premier Rooms with pool views, spacious Privilege Suites overlooking the Aravalli ranges, and a Four Bedroom Haveli Suite that pay homage to the region’s vintage architectural style.
