Royal Heritage Haveli - By Leisure Hotels

Breakfast was excellent with freshly squeezed juices and made to order menu items.

Charming, relaxing, good food and very helpful staff. A very enjoyable stay.

We are recently back from an extraordinary three week trip round Rajasthan where we stayed in a range of wonderful hotels. It’s a really hard choice, but by the end of our holiday, we had two ultimate favourite hotels, one of which was this magical haveli. I had worried a little about booking somewhere quite a way from central Jaipur - but returning each evening to somewhere so beautiful and peaceful made that entirely worthwhile. We had an absolutely wonderful three night stay here. In fact, we loved it so much that we changed our plans and spent two mornings here - enjoying waking to the sound of birds, swimming in the heated pool and lingering in the gardens. Their breakfast - outside in the beautiful Kigelia courtyard - is outstanding and was the best of the holiday: the lovely waiting staff (special mention to Nandu who looked after us incredibly well every morning) will basically make all sorts of things, depending on what you like. We also really enjoyed the delicious tasting menu on our first night - with the courtyard looking so pretty and all lit up at night. As for the rooms, if you are lucky enough to get room 104 (the blue room), it is simply astonishing: we have never in our lives stayed in such a sensational room and felt as though we were living in a palace! At every point, the level of professionalism and care for individual guests is exceptional. We’d definitely recommend staying here and would come back in a heartbeat if we return to Jaipur.

The hotel is beautiful! Very calming and relaxing, staff is supper attentive and the food was good. I only have 2 points I'd like to make. 1. When we reserved we called the hotel as we wanted to make sure we got specific rooms. We were with them on the phone while making the booking on Expedia. We booked 3 rooms and confirmed with them that we were getting the rooms we requested. When we got there none of the rooms we wanted were what we got. That was quite disappointing as we were reassured over the phone that we were getting the rooms we wanted and it turns out the rooms were already booked. 2. Food options for vegans were almost nothing. But to be expected, I was not upset at all, I understand it's a diet that is a bit difficult to accommodate, just maybe something to think about. Would definitely come back.

We felt like family - the staff was courteous, helpful and we lacked nothing. The spa treatments were professional and were just what we needed after a long day of traveling. The food was delicious- we even had a cooking class and ate the food that was cooked in front of us. I cannot wait to replicate the recipes here at home.
