It was built in the 14th century by Maharaja of Parmar Rajputs, and appreciated by Yaduvanshi Rajputs, who are said to be descendants of Lord Krishna. The fort was shortly occupied by Khanzadas after having converted to Islam in the middle of the 14th century.[4]

Through the centuries, the seven-turreted fort has changed hands many times. It has been conquered by the Mughals and the Jats and it then finally came into the hands of the Rajputs in 1775, at the time the princely state of Alwar was founded. The fort knew a golden period under Ranawat Thakur Bhawani Singh (1882–1934).

In 2004, the fort was leased to heritage company Neemrana Hotels by Wing Cdr. Mangal Singh. Subsequently, it was restored by co-owners of the group and restorers, Aman Nath and Francis Wacziarg.[5][6]

Description

The Hill Fort of Kesroli is a 31-room hotel.[7]
