What do Jackie Kennedy, Lord Mountbatten, Princess Diana, and Queen Elizabeth have in common, and perhaps you soon will? They’ve all walked through the grand arches of Jaipur’s royal residence – The Rajmahal Palace. Built in 1729, and home of Maharaja Sawai Man ‘Jai’ Singh and Maharani Gayatri Devi for many years, this residence turned palace hotel features 13 rooms and suites, each with its distinctive art-deco style.
Here, history lingers in sweeping stretches of lush gardens, in royal secrets murmured beneath the song of flowing fountains, in an art-deco pool that tempts you to linger all afternoon, in the palatial spa, in walls lined with photographs of the royal family, in gleaming polo trophies, a cherry-red 1950s Ford Thunderbird, and heirlooms treasured for generations, each corner quietly telling its tale.
Discover the ever-vibrant city of Jaipur, where every turn reveals a palace, a market, or a burst of colour. Then return to Rajmahal Palace, where the bustle fades and the royal treatment begins.
