Palanpur Palace was
constructed more than a century ago by Nawab Sher Mohammed Khan of
Palanpur state. Later his son Nawab Taley Mohammed Khan took keen
interest and further furnished it to make it an ideal summer Palace. The
present Iqabal Mohammmed Khan provided more glory and glamour to this
palace, to stand out amongst other palaces. It was Nawab Taley Mohammed
Khan, who had the noble idea of converting a part of this Palace from
1923 to 1936 for Hotel purpose. It was named "MOUNT HOTEL" and later an
Englishman named it as "Hotel Skeltania".
Now Palanpur Palace is Heritage Hotel. It keeps alive
