The room we stayed was in the Maharaja Wing, Maharaja Wing is quite secluded from the rest of the hotel. Maharaja Wing has 5 expansive rooms defining the grandeur during the era of the Maharaja. This building has a private library that overlooks the blue Naini Lake. It houses some interesting collection of books that you can explore in peace enjoying the picturesque view.

Parking:
The hotel has ample space to park your car, but the parking area is quite far from the reception and other hotel buildings. So, we did not get out of the hotel once we checked-in until we checked-out.
