Rambagh Palace, Jaipur
The capital city of Rajasthan JAIPUR is known as the “Paris of India” due to its magnificent palaces, grand Havelis (medieval Indian mansions), formidable forts, royal mystique, cultural allure and retail therapy attractions.
Together with Delhi and Agra, it is one-third of a trio of cities that constitute the “Golden Triangle”—the most popular tourist circuit in North India. No other place does justice to the royal heritage and aura of Rajasthan as the Rambagh Palace—the former residence of the Maharaja.
THE RAMBAGH PALACE was originally built in 1835 AD as a royal guest house cum hunting lodge by the Maharaja of Jaipur. Later it became the primary residence of the reigning Maharaja of Jaipur, Maharaja Sawai Man Singh II and his Queen Gayatri Devi in the 1940s and 1950s.
Now transformed into a heritage hotel offering 5-star world-class luxury, the Rambagh Palace is a “jewel of Jaipur” that ranks in a league of its own.
TripAdvisor ran a poll of the globetrotting luxury travellers and hospitality experts asking them to list the best luxury hotels in the world. The Rambagh Palace edged past the Maldives’ Ozen Reserve Bolifushi (ranked no 2) and Brazil’s Colline De France (ranked 3) to emerge as the “Best Luxury Hotel in the World.”
The magnificent Rambagh Palace is centrally located in Jaipur on Bhawani Road, close to the main attractions of the city.
