- 01Landscape and setting
- The region lies between Delhi and Jaipur, among hills, lakes and forts, with the Sariska Tiger Reserve nearby. Restored fort hotels such as Hill Fort-Kesroli and Tijara Fort-Palace are in Alwar district.
- 02Celebrations it suits
- Fort hotels with terraces and courtyards suit intimate and mid-sized weddings, and weekend celebrations for families based in Delhi.
- 03Getting there and around
- Most guests travel by road from Delhi or Jaipur; Tijara Fort-Palace, for example, is about 92 km from New Delhi's airport according to its operator.
- 04When to celebrate
- October to March is the most comfortable season. Hill locations can be cool on winter evenings, which suits fireside functions.
- 05Design inspiration
- Historic stonework, terraces and views over farmland suit candlelight, lanterns and florals that work with the forts rather than covering them. Fort properties often have steps and uneven levels, so plan for older guests.
