The setting characterizes dry and dusty desert environment and extreme heat and glare of the sun.

The landscape design uses a fort wall to enclose the arrival court. The arrival court is designed as a chaupad with a hundred champa trees and a hundred sprinkler nozzles.

A combination of fragrance, lush green foliage, sound of water and improved micro climate creates a setting which enchants and mesmerizes the visitor.

The Hotel is much talked about it’s architecture as well as the Landscape design, which has been published in various national & international magazines and journals.
