Havelis

Equivalent to the manors and chateaus of Europe, havelis were mansion residences to nobles and merchants who served the Rajput rulers of India. Samode Haveli is one property, built in 1799 by the Rawal clan who served the rulers of Jaipur. Enduring over two centuries, the property serves as the clan's ancestral home. While the top two floors are reserved as the Rawals' residence, the lower levels are open as traditional stays. Aside from Samode Haveli, they also operate Samode Bagh and Samode Palace.

The distinct Rajput aesthetics blend with Indo-Saracen touches, with grand halls decorated by paintings and furniture from the late 19th century. Local artists collaborate with Samode Haveli to preserve its treasured heritage.
