Unlock Unmatched Luxury: Discover the Best Hotels in Jaipur, Including the Stunning New Raffles Hotel
The prestigious Raffles hotel brand has unveiled Raffles Jaipur, its second property in the Indian subcontinent. Following Raffles Udaipur’s debut in 2021, this new addition is situated in Rajasthan, a state celebrated for its enchanting forts and historical palaces, including the renowned Hawa Mahal. Jaipur, famously known as the “Pink City” due to its rose-hued buildings painted in 1876 for a visiting English monarch, hosts this opulent hotel.
Raffles Jaipur offers 50 distinct rooms and suites, each uniquely decorated and ranging from entry-level 70-square-meter Landmark Rooms to the expansive 2,572-square-foot Rajmata Presidential Suite. Guests can enjoy luxurious amenities, including butler service, balconies with outdoor tubs or plunge pools, and handmade art and carpets. The hotel’s Indian and Mughal-inspired interiors feature hand-carved sandstone columns, patterned marble floors, and exquisite furnishings.
Dining at Raffles Jaipur is a culinary journey, with options including the Writers Bar, home to the Jaipur Sling cocktail, and Sehara, a rooftop bar serving Mediterranean dishes. Arkaa offers progressive North Indian cuisine and daily breakfast, while the Safir Atrium Tea & Champagne Lounge provides traditional afternoon tea with tea-based cocktails.
Guests seeking relaxation can visit the hotel’s 6,674-square-feet spa, complete with hot and cold mineral pools, yoga, and meditation sessions. Additionally, an Artisan Trail will launch later this year, presenting an opportunity for guests to observe local craftmakers.
Raffles Jaipur, under the management of Binny Sebastian, who joined the brand in December 2023, stands as the 22nd Raffles hotel globally, following the recent opening in Bahrain. Upcoming openings include Raffles Sentosa in Singapore and Raffles Jeddah in Saudi Arabia, further expanding the brand’s luxurious offerings. Rates at Raffles Jaipur start at 45,000 Indian Rupees (approximately $539).
