Rambagh Palace

Nowhere is the allure of Taj Group of Hotels better exemplified than here at this opulent former residence of the Maharaja of Jaipur. Located close to the walled ‘Pink City’ spectacular forts, and all the unique shopping bazaars of Jaipur, the Rambagh Palace unveils the rich culture and history of the erstwhile rulers of Rajasthan.

Built in 1835 as a hunting lodge, converted into a palace in 1925 as the residence of the Maharaja of Jaipur and finally converted as India’s first palace hotel in 1957. An architectural masterpiece, Rambagh Palace presents a fine blend of Rajput and Mughal architecture.

Sensitively restored to its former glory with refurbished rooms overlooking courtyards with fountains or verdant gardens, airy verandas, idyllic front lawns and a warm intimate lobby, guests can relive the royal lifestyle at Rambagh Palace. Elegant accommodation includes exquisitely designed Historical Suites and two sumptuous Presidental Suites, once royal chambers. In addition, there are personalised butlers throughout the Rambagh Palace who are knowledgeable hosts to modern day Maharajas.

Dining at Panghat, a wildly romantic amphitheatre restaurant will transport you back to the golden era of Rajasthan, whilst the congenial Polo Bar with its display of trophies won by the late Maharaja is rated amongst the finest bars in the world.
