It 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 Nawab Iqabal Mohammed Khan provided more glory and glamour to this palace to stand out amongst other Palaces. It was Nawab Taley Mohammed khan, who had the idea of converting a part of this palace from 1923 to1936 for a hotel purpose. It was named “Mount Hotel” and later Englishman named it as “Hotel Skeltania”.
