Hilton Jaipur – A Complete Guide

May 31, 2022

Of the many cities that I have had the opportunity to travel to and explore, the one that always seems to be calling to me is truly the Pink City of Rajasthan, i.e. Jaipur! A lot of Deja Vu takes place when I am here as I have grown to become so familiar with this wonderful city. And yet, every time, it seems that I also end up discovering something new altogether. This time on, I was lucky enough to witness Hilton’s brilliant hospitality in this beautiful and quaint city in the state of Rajasthan. The Property: This wonderful estate is situated in one of the best locations one can ask for in this city. A mere 20-minute drive from the international airport, I was honestly surprised at how fast I ended up reaching the hotel post landing. I am also extremely proud and humbled at the same time about the fact that the Hilton Jaipur has been given the title of “One of the 100 best business hotels in India” by CondeNast Traveller India itself, in the year 2017. The property is also near some major landmarks and monuments of the city like the Hawa Mahal, Albert Hall Museum, City Palace and the likes. It is also near the railway station which is only 5 minutes from the property during non-traffic hours. The Aura: The first thing you notice upon entering the hotel is the wide-open lobby. Done up in pastels and lit up beautifully, the lobby is like a breath of fresh air. The high ceiling and long windows and huge glass doors add to the brilliant illusion of openness. The lobby also has various seating arrangements that can easily accommodate many people at one time without making it feel congested. The rooms too are designed in a similar …
