Chanod Garh

Chanod Garh, located near Pali in Rajasthan, is a 300-year-old heritage fort-palace that has been meticulously restored and transformed into a luxury heritage hotel. Originally a prominent jagir of the brave Mertia Rajputs, the estate was established in the early 1700s and later came under Jodhpur’s rule.

The palace spans over 150,000 to 200,000 square feet and showcases a unique architectural blend of Mewar, Marwar, and Raj-era influences, preserving its original style through thirteen generations. Today, it remains the family home of the Thakur Ajeet Singhji and his descendants and offers guests an authentic experience of regal Rajasthan with spacious suites decorated with antiques and family heirlooms. Visitors can enjoy traditional Rajasthani cuisine prepared from organic farm produce, explore the nearby Chanod Lake and village, and participate in culturally rich activities like village walks and local festivals.

The hotel emphasizes sustainability and offers warm Rajput hospitality in a serene desert setting, providing a rare opportunity to experience rural Rajasthan in a luxurious yet intimate atmosphere. The estate’s history is deeply connected to the valor and administration of the Mertia Rajputs, reflected in the fort’s grandeur and the ongoing family stewardship that invites guests to relive centuries of royal heritage.
