Carnival
Hotels Fort Chanwa of
Luni (Rajasthan,
India) is a heritage hotel and an exceptional example of Elegance and Symmetry in Indian architecture of the last
century located just outskirts of Jodhpur (30 km). The entire fortress is carved out of the famous red sandstone of Jodhpur and with
its ornately carved lattice work friezes and intricate Jherokas it exquisitely captures
the romance and grace of a bygone age.
The Fort is composed of a lyrical complex of courtyards, towers, water-wheels, stables,
passages and stairways to secret pavilions and panoramic roof tops spanning the
village below and the Thar horizon beyond. The traditional paintings on the walls
harmoniously reflect the skill of the master craftsmen and the bygone days.
The Fort has been beautifully restored to its former glory by its owners Maharaj Dalip
Singhji, the youngest son of H.H. Maharaja Umaid Singhji and his wife Rani Madhu. Each
room has been created and decorated with its own particular charm and the many courtyards,
verandahs and gardens all offer a setting and ambiance set to capture your heart. Accommodation:
