Usha Kiran Palace

Usha Kiran Palace is a heritage hotel, located near Jai Vilas Mahal on a 9-acre land in Gwalior built by the royal Scindia dynasty of the Marathas. The management of the five-star hotel is done by Taj Hotels Resorts and Palaces. The hotel makes use of solar power energy produced at Kadodiya Solar Park, which has been built by Vivaan Solar.

It was built in 1902 as a home for visitors of Prince of Wales. It later became the guest house of Jivajirao Scindia where he brought Vijayarae Scindia after the marriage.

Subsequently moving from Mumbai to Gwalior, Priyadarshini Raje Scindia transformed the Palace into a hotel. The Palace has preserved its tradition with the usage of rosewood elevator from 1930 and two-blade ceiling fans.
