There are dozens of royal palaces throughout India, many that have been converted into hotels. What makes Suján Rajmahal Palace unique is that it is still a royal residence for the Maharaja of Jaipur, as well as an intimate Relais & Châteaux property in the heart of the Pink City. This urban oasis has lush gardens, fantastic cuisine and sensational decor by Adil Ahmad. It’s a riot of color, textures and fabrics — the restaurant, 51 Shades of Pink, is famously Instagrammable. Should you want the full royal experience, book the Maharaja’s Apartment (when he is not in residence, of course). It is suitably grand, but not overwhelming. No detail has been overlooked, including original portraits of the Maharaja, private butler service and a terrace overlooking the royal gardens.
