The Leela Palace Jaipur

No hotel under the Leela banner is anything less than luxurious, and the Leela Palace Jaipur, set on a nine-acre estate at a comfortable remove from the city, is no exception. It’s a fitting tribute to Jaipur, a town that certainly knows its palaces, and as beautifully ornate as it may be, it’s also a state-of-the-art luxury hotel. Its units number an even 200, and range from the merely lavish 462-square-foot Palace rooms to an ever-escalating series of suites, culminating in the Maharaja Suite, which comes complete with two terraces, a pool, and an eight-seat dining room. The Leela’s resort-like atmosphere is reinforced by its wealth of leisure offerings, from its spa, pool, and wellness center to its portfolio of curated excursions and experiences. Among its restaurants the highlight is Mohan Mahal, an elegant and formal dining room decorated in spectacular mosaics, all lit by candlelight.
