Hotel suggestions?

EmpressGinger · Aug 29th, 2009, 05:00

Can anyone suggest a hotel in Jaipur....we will only be there for 2 nights, as most of our trip we'll be in Delhi where we've already booked a hotel...a 'budget' place there in Delhi...and as we only have 2 days in Jaipur and hotel prices are cheaper in Jaipur for the more higher end places it seems. So we are considering splurging on a nicer place those 2 nights in Jaipur.

We'd really prefer some place with real traditional Indian decor, cultural style ya know...not like a nice but bland Hilton or Holiday inn that could be in NYC or London or anywhere. Know what I mean?

Please share any suggestions, you may have.

Blessings

We stayed at the Hotel Maduban, a lovely small family run heritage hotel in a residential area near the railroad station. They will pick you up from there for free (as I remember).

The Super Delux (we had it--big nice room that I think could sleep 4 as a sofa looked like it could be a bed) is less than $50 but they have a few other types of rooms both smaller & cheaper & some that can sleep more people.

Try one of the heritage hotels. The following ones will be around Rs2000 to Rs3000 a night

1. Umaid bhavan http://www.umaidbhawan.com/
2. Umaid mahal http://www.umaidmahal.com/
3. Chirmi palace http://www.hotelsjaipur.com/hotel_ch...ace_jaipur.htm

Hi...It you really looking at authentic heritage property to stay in, try out 'SAMODE HAVELI'.It's a 19th century palace converted into a Hotel which used to be owned by one of the nobles of Jaipur King.Here is the link 'http://samode.com'

thanks for all the info.

I had checked out the Umaid ones and the Chirmi ones last night online.

I had not heard of the Maduban or the Samode...will look into them.

Anyone have an opinion with the Diggi Palace, or the Baba Haveli, those two I had also checked out.

Thanks Seasahil...yes the Samode does look wonderful, alas, we can't splurge THAT much those two nights, lol...it's a bit out of my price range, but thanks for the info.

Blessings,

Diggi Palace is also an excellent option...beautiful little Heritage property with lush, green lawns located in the heart of the city!!!
