Pushkar Resort sprawls across 15 hectares of landscaped gardens, set apart from the hustle of the sacred city. Its location on the foothills of the Aravalli—one of the world's oldest mountain ranges—lends it a preserved atmosphere, just minutes away from the sacred lake and temples of Pushkar.

Why choose Pushkar Resort

This address appeals to travellers seeking a peaceful stopover between destinations in Rajasthan without compromising on comfort. The chalet format, rather than a single building, delivers a genuine sense of space: 40 units scattered across 15 hectares of verdant terrain, with pathways threading through planted avenues. It's an ideal choice after the energy of Jaipur or before heading to Jodhpur, especially during the Pushkar Fair in November when the city comes alive.

The atmosphere

The grounds are designed as a park, with manicured lawns, tree-lined groves and an outdoor pool that becomes the focal point as evening approaches. The proximity to the Aravalli gives the site an open horizon, particularly striking at sunrise and sunset. The atmosphere remains that of a human-scaled resort—without the ceremonial trappings of Rajasthan's palaces, yet with thoughtful attention to outdoor spaces.

The chalets and room categories

The 40 chalets are divided into three categories, graduated by size and amenities:

• Standard Room (270 sq.ft, approximately 25 m²): full amenities including air conditioning, mini-bar and laundry service. A functional option for a short stay.
• Deluxe Room (300 sq.ft, approximately 28 m²): its main strength is the view, opening onto the Aravalli and the resort's gardens.
• Superior Room (325 sq.ft, approximately 30 m²): the most spacious of the three categories, distinguished by its bold green and orange walls that echo Rajasthan's vibrant colour palette.

Services and facilities

Beyond accommodation, the resort offers several practical amenities:

• Outdoor pool in the gardens
• Free Wi-Fi in common areas
• On-site parking
• Conference room for business meetings
• Event lawn for receptions and weddings
• Laundry service

The event infrastructure (conference room, expansive lawn) explains the footfall during Indian weddings—something to keep in mind if booking during peak wedding season (November to February).

Location and access

The resort sits on the periphery of Pushkar, on the lower slopes of the Aravalli. This position allows for the tranquillity of a rural setting while remaining close to the town centre. It takes just minutes by vehicle to reach the main ghat and the bazaar. The nearest airport is Jaipur, approximately 2.5–3 hours away by road; Ajmer, the nearest railway hub, is about twenty minutes distant.

What to see and do nearby

Pushkar concentrates several essential sites of spiritual Rajasthan:

• The sacred lake of Pushkar and its 52 ghats, where Hindu pilgrims come to cleanse themselves.
• The Temple of Brahma, one of the world's rare temples dedicated to this deity.
• The Temple of Savitri, accessible by cable car or hiking trail, offering sweeping views over the city and surrounding desert.
• The bazaars of the centre, renowned for textiles, silverware and leather craftsmanship.
• The Pushkar Fair (Pushkar Mela), the grand annual gathering of camels and livestock in early November, one of Rajasthan's most photographed events.
