Ambrai is easily one of those places that truly lives up to the hype. Located right on the edge of Lake Pichola, it offers what is possibly the best city-and-lake view in Udaipur. From our lakeside table, we had uninterrupted 180-degree views of Gangaur Ghat, the City Palace, and the Lake Palace. Absolutely stunning.
We had pre-booked a lakeside table, which I would strongly recommend. Booking is a must if you want the best seats. As the sun began to set behind us, the view transformed beautifully, with changing shades over the lake and the City Palace slowly lighting up. It’s a magical experience and the perfect time to be there.
One of the highlights was being able to walk down to Ambrai Ghat and watch the evening aarti at Gangaur Ghat across the lake. You can also take a boat ride from here, which adds to the charm of the location. Being so close to the water makes the whole experience feel calm, intimate, and very special.
The food and service complemented the setting well, but honestly, the views alone make this place worth visiting. Try to reach before sunset and take your time soaking it all in.
A special thanks to Arun Saxena for personally taking care of our booking and ensuring our family was comfortably looked after. His attention made the evening even more pleasant.
Ambrai is a must-visit in Udaipur, especially if you want to experience the city at its most beautiful.
