Hotel Profile

Today the Baradari Palace has come alive and seems to have become an architectural portraiture of the Maharaja: it refuses to conform to a single architecture style, and happily unites Hindustani, Mughal and Colonial trappings!

Over the years, the Baradari Palace has gathered more and more history. It housed the Shahi Mehmandari (the state guest house), the Punjabi University – and from 1972 to 2006, the Punjab State Archives. Eventually, when the founder-restorers of Neemrana took over the building, they decided not just to preserve the original period look through careful restoration, but also to revitalize it to suit the requirements of the present day traveller.

The earlier rooms on the ground floor with very high ceilings face the garden, whereas the Maharaja lived on the upper floors with his three wives: Sikh, Muslim, and Christian. When they moved to The Baradari Palace, in keeping with the very British tastes of the period, a cricket field, a skating rink and a mono-rail were also built around it.

A sprawling garden-palace in the heart of culturally-rich Patiala evokes an era of art and music generously patronised by the royal family. If the Patiala peg spells quantity – then in the same tradition, The Baradari Palace speaks volumes on hospitality and space! Discover an architectural marvel at the heart of this jewel!
