Ayana Opens at Udaipur Marriott Hotel, Redefining Rooftop Dining in Udaipur

• Experience authentic flavours, artisanal cocktails, and unforgettable evenings at Udaipur Marriott

National, 15 October 2025: Udaipur Marriott Hotel proudly unveils Ayana, its newest rooftop dining destination, offering a transcendent culinary journey above the shimmering lakes and Aravalli Hills. True to its name, which means “the path,” Ayana invites guests on a carefully curated experience that begins the moment they step into its serene poolside ambiance and culminates in the indulgent final spoonful of dessert. The restaurant’s design blends contemporary Indian aesthetics with natural materials, oversized cushions, glowing lanterns, and curated world music, creating an atmosphere that is at once vibrant and serene, while the panoramic rooftop views of Udaipur’s lakes and hills add a magical dimension to every visit.

Ayana’s menu celebrates India’s royal culinary legacy, drawing inspiration from the Northwest Frontier and the regal kitchens of Rajasthan. Signature dishes such as slow-cooked Haleem, melt-in-the-mouth Shikampuri Kebabs, aromatic layered Biryani, and regional Rajasthani classics like Laal Maas, Gatte ki Subzi, and Ker Sangri reflect a philosophy of authenticity, refinement, and respect for time-honoured techniques. Each dish is crafted with precision, honouring its origins while offering a modern presentation that elevates the dining experience. The bar complements the cuisine with artisanal cocktails infused with Indian botanicals, spices, and local flavours, alongside a carefully curated selection of fine wines and craft beers, making every meal a seamless sensory journey.

Designed to host both intimate dinners and celebratory gatherings, Ayana offers a mix of communal seating, semi-private corners, and open decks, making it a perfect setting for romantic evenings, private celebrations, and exclusive events. The restaurant is deeply committed to sustainability, prioritizing locally sourced seasonal produce, plant-forward menu innovations, minimal food waste, energy-efficient kitchens, and the elimination of single-use plastics, ensuring every experience leaves a lighter footprint on the planet.

Ecstatic about the launch, Executive Chef, Mohit Mishra said, “We are thrilled to officially welcome guests to Ayana. Our vision was to create more than just a restaurant, we wanted to craft a journey where each dish tells a story, each flavour evokes tradition, and every detail, from preparation to presentation, reflects the depth of India’s rich culinary heritage. It’s about delivering authenticity with finesse and giving our guests an experience they will remember long after they leave.” 

Adding on to this, Vaibhav Sagar, General Manager, commented, “Ayana is designed to be an immersive experience, not just a dining venue. From the sweeping rooftop views to the thoughtfully curated menu and serene yet vibrant ambiance, every element has been meticulously crafted to create lasting memories. Whether for travelers discovering Udaipur or locals seeking a refined night out, Ayana offers moments that stay with you.”

Ayana embodies the spirit of Udaipur Marriott Hotel, combining authenticity, artistry, and modern luxury to create unforgettable moments for both residents of Udaipur and travelers from around the world. At Ayana, the view is breathtaking, but the memories you make are even more enduring.
