Pushkar is a pilgrimage town with a lake, a Brahma temple and a bazaar, and almost nowhere to sleep that matches the way our guests travel. The Westin, opened in 2017 on open ground at Motisar Road, is the honest answer to that problem.
It is a modern resort rather than a heritage conversion, and better for being clear about it: ninety-eight villas across eleven acres, forty-four with private pools, laid out to face the low Aravalli ridges that enclose the valley rather than the town.
Why We Place Guests Here
- Forty-four of the ninety-eight units have their own pool — an unusually high ratio, and the reason Pushkar can be a stop rather than a day trip.
- It is the only property in Pushkar we would place guests in during the Camel Fair, when the town itself becomes unworkable.
- Panorama, the rooftop grill, is positioned for the Aravalli view and is the one place in Pushkar to take a drink at sunset.

Questions, Answered
Where should you stay for the Pushkar Camel Fair?
Pushkar's own guesthouses fill and overflow during the fair, which falls around Kartik Purnima in November. The Westin, a short drive out on Motisar Road, is where Elevated India places guests for those dates — book many months ahead.
Is the Westin Pushkar walking distance from Pushkar lake?
No — it sits outside the town on Motisar Road and the lake and bazaar are a short drive. That distance is what makes it quiet.
