Vivaana Culture Hotel

The peaceful setting and beautiful frescoes made our two nights at Vivaana Heritage Hotel feel special. I was there with friends, and we loved the heritage architecture as well. The food was delicious and genuinely Rajasthani. Staff were warm, attentive, and welcoming, making the stay a lovely mix of comfort, culture, and hospitality in Shekhawati. We had a wonderful time.

We loved the local experiences and cultural programs, which were both entertaining and gave us insight into the region's heritage. The food was another highlight, with delicious local dishes that left us wanting more. At Vivaana Heritage Hotel, the staff made us feel like family, and the architecture and decor gave the place a real sense of another era. It was an enchanting stay in the heart of Mandawa. We can't wait to come back, and would recommend it to anyone after an immersive, memorable visit.

A special moment for me was the Navalgarh museum. It presents Shekhawati's legacy in an astounding way and makes the history feel alive and accessible. The fusion meal was memorable too, with rose-hued chandeliers, glowing wall lights, and crockery that all worked together to create a lovely dining atmosphere. Vivaana is more than a hotel to me. Its restoration, heritage, and craftsmanship feel like a genuine labour of love, and the 19th-century haveli has vibrant character and history in every corner. The attention to detail in the hospitality stood out throughout our stay. From the curated walks to the meals, everything felt personal and thoughtful. Thank you for making the stay so memorable.

The Ayurvedic spa was well curated, and the view by the swimming pool was lovely. The hotel has a great aesthetic throughout, with old natural paintings everywhere, including Radha and Krishna love scenes. Our room was spacious and cozy, with a comfortable mattress and very soft pillows. The food was excellent too. I loved the Hyderabadi Mutton Biryani, which I asked them to make double masala, and the Junglee mass came in a good portion with fresh Mutton. I'd go back just for the Vanilla Ice cream and Beetroot Halwa. Such a good weekend getaway!
