“Set in the Aravalli hills just outside Jaipur, this lavish palace hotel brings royal Rajasthan to life in cinematic style. Think mirrored walls, hand-painted frescoes and silver-domed pavilions scented with frangipani. Expect folk shows, candlelit thalis, a pool bar & spa. A modern maharaja’s dream.”
