We had our wedding at Raj Palace in Jan 2026 and the team with Ankur, Dharmveer and Narendra were a pleasure to deal with. They were incredibly helpful over the 5 days we were there.

Questions about the venue
How close is The Raj Palace to Amer Fort?+
The venue is approximately 300 meters from Amer Fort's main entrance. Guests can visit the fort as part of pre-wedding festivities or photo sessions without traveling across the city.
What makes this different from other Jaipur palace venues?+
The Raj Palace is the only hotel property located within Jaipur's UNESCO-listed walled city and occupies an actual 18th-century royal residence. Most other palace venues are reconstructed properties outside the historic district.

Yes. The property has several period rooms and courtyards that can accommodate separate mehendi, sangeet, and reception events on the same or consecutive days.
Is photography allowed throughout the palace?+
Photography is permitted in most areas. The property's courtyards, staircases, and period chambers provide authentic backdrops. Discuss specific restrictions with the events team during planning.
What is the guest accommodation capacity?+
The palace has 32 rooms across various categories, accommodating 80-100 guests on-site. Additional accommodations are available through partner properties within the walled city.
