I had a wonderful stay at the lakeside palace, enjoying the fantastic lake views from the rooftop at very reasonable rates. The room was fantastic for taking in the beauty of the lakeside, although it was a bit cold one night. The service, although combined with other amenities, was courteous and helpful, especially for a solo female traveler.
