Roopangarh Fort is a vast war Fort and has been over 350 years in the making. It has been painstakingly restored and renovated as a heritage hotel, especially for those who enjoy a sense of history and seek a story from the silent walls.
Surprisingly large guest rooms, four poster beds, colonial Indian furniture, open log fires in winter all assure you of a warm welcome. Combined atmosphere of splendid views from the massive terrace and magical evenings under the clear sky with piercing desert music is intoxicating. Add to this modern day facilities and your holiday is truly memorable.

Within its nine turreted fortification were made foundries, armouries, granaries, secret passages, jails and step-wells. Adjacent to the 'Chauburja' (4 towered fortification) nestled the palaces, delicate and fragile. The beauty of living was transcribed to a refined architecture in the form of large audience halls, incredibly high cellings, wide doors and casements as if the inhabitants drank nothing but the exhilarating breeze.
