Vivaana Culture Hotel

Vivaana is a lovingly restored twin haveli that offers a rich, atmospheric stay for travellers on India Culture Tours and Rajasthan tours.

Set in the Shekhawati region, known for its painted mansions and trade-route heritage, the property showcases intricate frescoes, carved doorways, courtyards and terraces that reveal centuries of craftsmanship. Rooms blend heritage character with modern ease, creating a comfortable pause during India tailor made tours that include Mandawa on their cultural circuit. The hotel’s authenticity, warm service and evocative spaces make it an inspiring base for discovering a region often described as Rajasthan’s open-air art gallery.

Why do we love Vivaana Culture Hotel ?

Vivaana feels like stepping into a living museum, yet without any stiffness. The frescoes are beautifully preserved, the courtyards feel intimate and the atmosphere carries the gentle quietness of a bygone era.

For guests on cultural India tours, it offers a rare immersion into Shekhawati’s artistic heritage, enriching every walk through Mandawa’s lanes. We love the sense of discovery: hidden stairways, painted ceilings, charming balconies and spaces that invite reflection. Staff are warm and respectful, supporting the rhythm of India Culture Tours while allowing travellers the freedom to absorb the building’s history at their own pace.

What can I look forward to?

Look forward to fresco-filled corridors, peaceful courtyards and intimate terraces that reveal the artistry of Shekhawati. Vivaana offers a deeply cultural stay that enhances the flow of India Culture Tours and more personalised India tailor made tours.

Experiences

Vivaana opens the door to Shekhawati’s heritage, where Mandawa’s painted havelis, bustling bazaars and desert-edge villages showcase Rajasthan’s merchant past. Travellers on India Culture Tours often explore fresco trails, visit local artisans and learn how trade influenced the region’s unique artistic style. The hotel’s setting allows for unhurried wandering, photography and guided storytelling. Many India tailor made tours also include short excursions to nearby towns such as Nawalgarh or Fatehpur, each with its own architectural gems. Returning to Vivaana, guests find restorative calm in its courtyards and rooftop views.

Gastronomy

Dining at Vivaana reflects Shekhawati’s culinary traditions while offering comfort for travellers on Rajasthan tours or cultural India tours. Expect flavourful lentils, vegetables, local breads and delicately spiced curries, alongside international favourites for those preferring gentler flavours. Breakfast includes fresh fruit, breads and cooked-to-order selections ideal for early explorations of Mandawa’s havelis. Evening meals in the courtyards or dining halls feel atmospheric, enhanced by soft lighting and heritage surroundings. The experience is warm, approachable and reassuring—qualities that suit the varied tastes found in India tailor made tours.

Comfort

Rooms at Vivaana combine antique furnishings, painted walls and traditional arches with modern comforts that support multi-stop India Culture Tours. Beds are comfortable, air-conditioning reliable and bathrooms well maintained, ensuring restful nights after culturally rich days in Shekhawati. Several rooms open to courtyards or terraces, offering quiet corners to read, write or simply enjoy the haveli’s charm. The property’s calm, intimate atmosphere supports the pace of India tailor made tours, providing a space where travellers can absorb the detail, artistry and heritage that define Mandawa.
