About the Hotel
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.

Reviews for Umaid Bhawan Palace
Living the Maharaja Legacy: A Majestic Stay Beyond Compare!
Our stay at the legendary Umaid Bhawan Palace was nothing short of a royal dream come alive. From the moment we stepped into the magnificent golden-hued sandstone courtyards, we were enveloped in an aura of timeless heritage, peerless architecture, and unmatched luxury. It truly feels like living amidst the glorious legacy of the Maharajas. While the grandeur of the palace leaves you spellbound, what truly touches your soul is the exceptional, world-class hospitality. Every single need of ours was anticipated and catered to with utmost grace and warmth. We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to Swaroop Singh ji, along with Mohan Singh, Surendra Singh, Ranveer, and Bhupendra ji and team, whose immaculate courtesy and dedication made us feel like true royalty throughout our stay. Their warmth and attentiveness reflect the finest traditions of Marwari hospitality. it is an absolute honor and pleasure to award this majestic sanctuary and its stellar team a flawless 10/10 rating!

Umaid Bhavan is great, it’s restaurants - exceptional
We had an outstanding stay at Umaid Bhavan. What stood out as exceptional was the amazing hospitality and food by Chef Shobhit and team. Even if you’re not staying at Umaid Bhavan, it would be remiss to not visit Risala. Every dish was exceptional, made with the freshest ingredients and true to traditions. Even the European menu was delectable. From Kachoris at breakfast to Gulab Jamoon sabji, every dish was made and served so thoughtfully. It’s probably the best food I’ve had in all my travels around the world!!
