Turtle Hostel Udaipur- 10 mtr from Lake

The lakeside haveli conversion tucked in Jethiyon ki Haveli, Turtle Hostel sits ten metres from Lake Pichola's edge in Udaipur's old city, footsteps from the ghats and narrow lanes leading to Jagdish Temple. It suits backpackers and solo travellers wanting a budget base within walking distance of the City Palace.

Rooftop seating faces the lake directly, useful for sunset without the crowds at paid viewpoints nearby. Dorm and private rooms share the same haveli stonework and carved window frames typical of the old quarter.

Narrow pedestrian lanes mean autos stop short; the walk in takes under five minutes from the nearest drop point.
