Padmaa Jaipur

Padmaa Jaipur gets its name from Shrimati Padmaa Devi Shah, the beloved grandmother of the current generation operating the haveli hotel. The residence itself was built back in 1735, when their ancestor Shri Seva Ram Ji answered the royal summons of Jaipur's founder, Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II. For seven generations, the family served as jewellers, eventually transitioning into hoteliers in this modern era.

Although the era of the Maharajas has passed, Padmaa Jaipur still embraces slivers of their era's extravagance. The accommodations and spaces of the haveli are touched up in lavish decorative styles that evoke hints of decadence. The play of light and shadows created by the curtains and illuminations at the hotel creates a ritzy atmosphere reminiscent of swanky Western hotels. The suites are classic heritage rooms that have been restored to each detail, then done in gorgeous color themes that complement the historic architecture. Classic features include jharokha arches and intricate lattice windows, contrasted by cushy modern furnishings.

Dining at Padmaa Jaipur is a cozy yet elegant affair. Look forward to traditional Rajasthani fare prepared using treasured family recipes, and popular international dishes. Dine at the beautiful courtyard, which is a peaceful open space, or on the rooftop terrace, where you can admire city views while savoring the different flavors. For those who would like to enjoy their meals accompanied by adult beverages, the hotel also has bars at the two dining locations.

Cultural and Outdoor Experiences

With Padmaa Jaipur situated in the heart of the Pink City, travelers can easily find historic landmarks that they can visit. Contact the hosts and see if you can arrange a guided tour of Jaipur, visiting royal places such as the City Palace and Hawa Mahal. Up on the hill overlooking Jaipur are hiking trails and the famous Nahargarh Fort, which has protected the kingdom for centuries. For a more grounded experience, you should also visit local markets and workshops. There you can find tasty delicacies, as well as crafts that would make for lovely souvenirs.

When you're not out exploring, you can relax at the on-site spa. They offer treatments and massages that will rejuvenate your tired body. There's also a swimming pool where you can chill and unwind after a day filled with excitement.

Other Celebrations

Padmaa Jaipur may be quite open to accommodating your private celebration as a dinner service, provided you contact them and make arrangements beforehand. As the hotel has two dining spaces, namely the courtyard and terrace, you can choose which location better suits your birthday or anniversary.
