About the property
Majestic with spaces and with a design universe all its own, is the Sawai Man Mahal. This heritage-palace pays tribute to Maharaja Sawai Man Singh II – an Indian prince, diplomat, army-man and polo player – with expressive architecture, restorative ethics, lush pleasure-gardens, haute-cuisine and immersive experiences. Open, airy, cocooned, Sawai Man Mahal celebrates the best of Rajputana heritage.
In four words, it is Jaipur in a Palace. Its façade is reminiscent of Amer Fort, its hall of 24 pillars mirror those at City Palace, while the grand lobby which predates even the Rambagh Palace, with which it shares its premises, showboats heritage, including the 187-year-old Golden Gate - Rambagh Palace’s original gilded entrance. Delicate thikree work, hand painted murals, the medley of tiles & stones, carefully preserved artifacts, vintage photographs and a subdued but colourful livery marks out this palace as special. Much like its muse.
Tree-lined avenues and lush verdure usher you to a palace, striking in structure and opulent in its details. The paths are lined with delicate white Jaali lamps that complement the introspective walks you might take, in the company of peacocks and bird-calls, as you survey the lay of this enthralling palace. If green acres are the new luxury, Sawai Man Mahal is liberal and imaginative with it.
Check in to capacious rooms and private courtyards laced with greenery, royal suites with private plunge pools, free-style bathtubs, hand painted niches, ornate arches and murals.
The décor has been handpicked by the royal family, be it the rooms, recreational spaces, the lavish Sabha Niwas conference room; or the aesthetics at the library-themed cocktail lounge - 1835, housing prized malts, conversations, and 200-year-old books for company. The Maharaja was India’s first ambassador to Spain, and this is celebrated at La Mesa and La Terraza, the Palace’s Spanish-themed multi-cuisine restaurant and al-fresco space.
Momentous occasions are best celebrated at Maharani Mahal, the gold-accented ballroom that opens into the vast Maharani Bagh lawn. Chandra Mahal, for smaller gatherings, is silver-themed with an air of elegance.
The palace-hotel’s outdoor pool and fitness centre vow to rejuvenate while the Jiva Spa at the Rambagh Palace next door, promises an inimitable spa experience.
20 minutes from Jaipur Airport, this immersive palace promises a sterling experience.

Jaipur is the capital and the largest city of the north-western Indian state of Rajasthan. As of 2011, the city had a population of 3.1 million, making it the tenth most populous city in the country. Located 268 km from the national capital New Delhi, Jaipur is also known as the Pink City due to the dominant colour scheme of its buildings in the old city.
As soon as you arrive in Jaipur, you'll be greeted by the iconic Hawa Mahal, a stunning palace with intricate façade and thousands of windows. From there, you can explore the City Palace, the former residence of the Maharaja of Jaipur, which now houses a museum showcasing art, textiles, and weapons from the region's history.
One of the most famous attractions in Jaipur is the Amer Fort, a grand fortress that sits atop a hill overlooking the city. You can take a guided tour of the fort and learn about its history, including the intricate carvings and design features that make it such a popular destination for visitors.
