The Best Family Hotel in Abu Road for a Mount Abu Trip
Planning a family vacation to Mount Abu — Rajasthan's only hill station — naturally raises the question of where to base yourself. Hotels on the hill are expensive and crowded during peak season. Hotel Candlewood and Restaurant in Abu Road offers a smarter solution: a genuinely family-friendly hotel just 27 km from Mount Abu, with spacious rooms designed for families, an outdoor swimming pool, a full multi-cuisine restaurant, and 24/7 room service — all at a price that makes the family budget stretch much further.
Family rooms at Hotel Candlewood start from ₹2,999 per night. For what is included, that is exceptional value anywhere in Rajasthan.
Spacious Family Rooms — Built for Real Families
The two family room configurations at Hotel Candlewood are designed around how families actually travel — with luggage, children who need space to move, and adults who need somewhere to sit that is not the edge of a bed.
- Super Deluxe Three Bed Room — 17 sq.m, up to 3 guests, from ₹2,999/night. Three proper beds, modern furnishings, and full room amenities including AC, free Wi-Fi, LED TV, hot water, and 24-hour room service.
- Family Four Bed Room — 20 sq.m, up to 4 guests, from ₹3,999/night. The hotel's largest room configuration, designed for families of four or groups traveling together. Ample space, quality beds, and the complete amenity package.
Extra beds and baby cots are available on request — properly set up, not an afterthought folding cot. Please mention your requirement at the time of booking or contact the hotel directly.
Swimming Pool — Safe, Clean and Family-Friendly
Children and parents both love the outdoor swimming pool at Hotel Candlewood. Open daily from 7 AM to 8 PM, it is one of the few hotels in Abu Road that offers a swimming pool to guests at no extra charge. After a day of exploring Mount Abu — walking the viewpoints, visiting Nakki Lake, or touring the Dilwara Temples — the pool provides the kind of unwind that turns a good trip into a great one.
The pool area is maintained to high standards. Parents are advised to supervise children in the water. Pool depth is suitable for supervised family use.
Family-Friendly Restaurant — Open 7 AM to 11 PM
Traveling with a family means not everyone wants the same thing from a menu. Candlewood Restaurant solves this with a genuinely wide multi-cuisine offering — Rajasthani thali, gatte ki sabzi, dal baati churma, ker sangri, paneer dishes, simple roti-sabzi for younger guests, rice dishes, and Continental options. Something for every family member, including selective children and elderly guests with specific dietary preferences.
The restaurant opens at 7 AM, which means families can eat a proper breakfast before the drive up to Mount Abu. Dinner runs until 11 PM, so there is no rush to be back from the hill by a specific time to eat. For families with small children who may want food at odd hours, 24-hour room service is available for all hotel guests.
Free Parking — Secure and On-Site
Most families traveling to Abu Road come by private car. Hotel Candlewood provides free private car parking on the premises for all guests. There is no roadside scramble, no separate parking fee, and no uncertainty about whether your vehicle is safe while you are away for the day. Drive from Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Surat, or anywhere — pull up and check in.
Safe and Secure — 24/7
Hotel Candlewood has operated since 2011 and takes guest security seriously. CCTV surveillance covers the property. Security staff are on duty around the clock. Power backup ensures no disruption to room comfort during load-shedding. For families traveling with elderly members or young children, this consistent security environment removes one of the background concerns that makes family travel tiring.
The Abu Road Advantage for Family Trips to Mount Abu
Staying in Abu Road rather than on the Mount Abu hillside makes practical sense for families:
- Significantly lower hotel rates — family rooms on the hill during peak season can cost 2–3x what Hotel Candlewood charges for equivalent or better quality
- Better rail connectivity — Abu Road Railway Station is on the main Ahmedabad–Jaipur line. If the family is arriving or departing by train, staying in Abu Road is far more convenient
- Less crowded — Mount Abu during December and January is very congested. Abu Road gives families a quieter, more relaxed base
- Day trips to Mount Abu — the 27 km drive takes about 45 minutes. Go up in the morning, see the sights, return to a comfortable hotel and a proper restaurant in the evening
