Perched high above the desert capital of Jodhpur, Umaid Bhawan Palace is the last of the great palaces of India and one of the largest private residences in the world – set amidst 26 acres of lush gardens. Designed by renowned Edwardian architect Henry Lanchester, the palace is a blend of eastern and western architectural influences. Its majestic 105 – foot high cupola is influenced by the Renaissance, while the towers draw inspiration from Rajput tradition. The lavish interiors with gilt furniture and elegant artwork follow the Art Deco style, complemented by the exotic murals by the self-exiled Polish artist Stefan Norblin. In 1997, the palace was converted into a luxury hotel, and is now managed by TAJ. With this, the TAJ extends its grand luxury palace experience to the city of Jodhpur.

My family of seven—including my wife, toddler, parents, and in-laws—just wrapped up an incredible two-night stay at Umaid Bhawan Palace. We chose this magical venue to celebrate the milestone birthdays of both my father and father-in-law, and the hotel exceeded every expectation. The property is breathtaking. My toddler was thrilled to see peacocks roaming the grounds, while the adults enjoyed the spectacular breakfast spreads and elegant high tea service. Exploring the on-site museum and vintage car collection was a massive hit with both birthday boys. The staff provided world-class hospitality, even arranging a beautiful, seamless special cake cutting ceremony for the grandfathers that made them feel like royalty. A special shoutout goes to our guide, Sikandar Singh, whose deep knowledge and engaging storytelling brought the palace's history to life. It was the perfect multi-generational trip. If you want to celebrate a special family milestone in luxury, this is the place.
