Haveli Heritage Inn Kutchery Rd, Phul Nawas
0145/262 1607
haveliherit– ageinn@hotmail.com In an old house from the 1870s that was once used as the state HQ of the Congress Party – Nehru and Gandhi both stayed here. It sounds grander than it is, but if you think of this as a pension rather than a haveli, you'll get the right idea – the big attractions are the peaceful atmosphere and the delightful family that run it. Rooms (air-cooled and a/c) are bright, spacious and attractively furnished, and there's great home-cooking too. Price: Rs501–2000
