The Raj Palace by Small Luxury Hotels of The World in Rajasthan 302002, open April–November.
The Raj Palace stands apart as Jaipur's only palace hotel within the UNESCO-listed walled city, offering an authentic 18th-century royal residence rather than a modern replica.
Located steps from the Amer Fort complex on Jorawar Singh Gate, this Small Luxury Hotels property delivers genuine heritage immersion with direct access to Rajasthan's most iconic monuments.
The venue's architecture and grounds reflect actual royal life rather than theatrical interpretation, making it a rare choice for couples seeking documented historical authenticity.
The Raj hotel was an amazing experience. We didn’t love our room because there were no windows with natural light so they immediately moved us to the other room with beautiful light. The breakfast was delicious. The service was beyond and the building itself was a beautiful as an interior designer.
