Restored to its former 300 Year old Glory, Fort JadhavGadh once again welcomes Royalty and Guests alike. Located on the Out skirts of Pune, Fort JadhavGadh captures the essence of the heroic history of Maharashtra – the land of the Marathas. Proudly standing as Maharashtra’s Only Fort Heritage Hotel with a Museum called ‘AAI’ dedicated to Woman Hood through the centuries. A place of residence till only just 10 years back, Fort JadhavGadh has many architectural similarities to the other magnanimous forts of the Maratha era and is a fine example of Maratha craftsmanship. It was intentionally not very large as it housed the Royal Family of Jadhavraos and made them more accessible to their ‘Praja’. Built on a quaint hill top, Fort JadhavGadh offers a resplendent view of the beautiful hillside and 3000 acres of farm land just as the King in his day would have looked over his kingdom. An enthralling ride to the Fort along the captivating ‘Dive Ghat’ meaning ‘The Ghat of Light’, will leave you spellbound. A grand welcome awaits you at the spectacular entrance of the Fort with a Traditional Attired ‘Mauvla’ (Maratha Soldier) blowing his ‘Turari’ and the powerful beating of the ‘Dhol’ welcoming you just as it has done so for centuries. The Fort offers a wide variety of activities that allow you to participate, bond and spend quality time together with your loved ones. Some Relive and Rekindle their childhood Romance, others to form a lifelong of Bond of Marriage with their soul mates. Still more come to be inspired by the spirit of Fort JadhavGadh in their Corporate Meetings, Strategy Meets or Team Bonding. But when the sun goes down and the birds stop chirping it’s the clinking of the glasses that fill the air. A lovely dinner at the ‘Payatha’ restaurant at the foothill of the fort with that nip in the air being over come by the warmth in your glass and a barbeque crackling. The lush Royal Lawns, which are spacious enough to cater to 3000 people, are often invaded by the deer that run around freely in the jungles behind. This natural habitat is maintained for all of God’s creatures making Fort JadhavGadh a bird watchers paradise with more than 50 varieties of Birds and Animals. Soaking in our 300 year old Swimming Pool, you often end up giving in to the temptations of getting a soothing massage in our Spa. Fort JadhavGadh creatively combines our Tradition, Heritage and Sanskaar with the Modern needs of life today to give you the most authentic Traditional Maratha experience. No wonder there no other place like it.
