We loved our staycation at Tijara Fort Palace by Neemrana, an exquisite property in Alwar, Rajasthan. A perfect amalgamation of luxury, quietude and old world charm, where time seems to stand still. This stunning palace dates back to the 19th century and has now been converted into a gorgeous hotel that not only offers verdant views and warm hospitality but has numerous tales to tell of the bygone era.

I wanted to experience hostels but the prospect of it always seemed daunting. Being sceptical about the safety and a sucker for little luxuries in life, my heart didn’t brace the courage until recently. And ever since I watched Kangana’s movie Queen, hostels for me meant dorm like rooms with bunk beds, communal bathrooms(Well not really comfy with that). However, many hostels are rather plush and even offer a few private rooms in addition to traditional shared rooms.
