Overview: Rohet - the fortified desert home of the
descendants of the 16th century Rathore of the Champawat
clan, Thakur Dalpat Singh I. The "Jagir" of Rohet was
bestowed upon him in 1622 A.D. by the Maharaja Of
Jodhpur, as a mark of appreciation for his bravery in
battle. Generations of valiant noble-men have built this
heritage home where, notwithstanding the inroads of
modernity, aristocratic values are respected. The
visitor of today experiences the famed warmth of
courteous Rajput hospitality.
Brilliantly plumed peacocks strut about, perching
themselves under finely carved stone archways and the
wind whispers through the neem tree groves and
bougainvilleas. Within these time weathered walls lies
an oasis of landscaped gardens and flowers in bloom -
your Oasis in the arid land of Marwar.
Rohet Garh is a recognized
Heritage Hotel. Rare among hotels
it has
remained a family home, where the members of the
erstwhile ruling family welcome you personally as their
honored guest. Its elegantly appointed rooms have their
own individual character and furnishings. Rooms are
air-conditioned and have attached bathrooms and modern
facilities. The drawing room has ornately carved wooden
ceiling, traditional lamps and old photographs. You are
invited to relax in spacious verndah lounges decorated
with historic trophies and artifacts. |
