The rooms are amazing. Super cozy rooms. A lot of details in the room. Very close to the Taj Mahal. Breakfast amazing even though is vegan
Personal super friendly
A very enjoyable stay at the Smiling Sparrows Villa. The charming villa is nestled in the middle of the old city and can only be accessed either by rickshaw or on foot. The rickshaw drive to-from the villa was one of my favourite parts of the trip! It is perfect for small groups. There are two double rooms and extra beds if needed. The freshly cooked breakfasts from Bhagwati were lovely and he was very accommodating with our requests. I enjoyed the selection of books left by the owners. The premises were very clean throughout. On certain days the refuse collection comes fairly early in the morning so please be mindful if you are a light-sleeper. We would most definitely return here on our next visit to Udaipur.
