Once a hunting reserve for the royals, the Vivanta by Taj – Sawai Madhopur Lodge today stands as a heritage hotel at the edge of the Ranthambore National Park
Two hours pass by with no animal in sight. Suddenly, there’s a movement in the bushes. Finally, it emerges! The magnificent tigress, Arrowhead. She saunters across the shore of the lake, laps up some water, spares us a gaze and walks back. This is a sight to behold.
My gateway to the Ranthambore National Park is the Vivanta by Taj – Sawai Madhopur Lodge. Once a hunting reserve for the royals, today it stands as a heritage hotel amidst the Vindhya and the Aravali ranges, with 36 luxurious rooms spread across 12 acres of lush greenery. The Lodge boasts deco-style architecture, trophies from past hunts hang on the walls and photographs depict the history of the royals in action.
