One
of the earlier Thakurs of Bissau Shyam Singh was an
outstanding if somewhat unconventional ruler -An
Englishman who visited his court in 1808 had this to
 say
"At his palace I saw four Shekhawat Chief's and
cousins - they were plain men, and seemed to be living
in great harmony. While some of the others bore strong
marks of the effect of opium especially noticeable in
their eyes, one of them Shyam Singh seemed remarkably
mild and well mannered but scarcely had I crossed the
desert when I heard that Shyam Singh had murdered the
three others at a feast, stabbing the first with his
own hand". This story may or may not be authentic but
is quite typical of times and conditions prevailing in
that particular era.
 Bissau
Palace is an elegant traditional hotel built in 1919
and recently renovated. Close to the walled city and
overlooking the Tiger fort the Bissau offers an oasis
of calm, care, comfort and respite from the 'heat and
dust' of the city.
The
guest rooms are spacious and comfortable. A gracious
hotel with old-world charm and reputation for
excellent cuisine and service. An atmosphere pregnant
with intrigue, excitement, tragedy. Turreted ramparts
enclosing a world of wealth.
To
his credit, however, it must be maintained that Shyam
Singh was at his best a brilliant general and
tactician who hired the services of French mercenaries
in his fight against the British and the Jaipur State.
Most of the armory displayed here were a part of Shyam
Singh's 'personal effects'.
