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.

Majestic, beautifully maintained gardens, and the sense of history that surrounds the property. The palace is stunning, with magnificent architecture, beautifully maintained gardens. It is huge and visible from other places far away like Jaswant Thadda and others

I recently visited Umaid Bhavan with my wife and my 7 month old baby. It was a very relaxed holiday where the property was beautiful as well as the people who took care of us here. Since my baby had to eat baby food only we requested Mr. Karan to kindly arrange for some fruit purées and he did it without any hesitation with the help of chef Shobit. We stayed here for 3 nights and had all our meals at the palace, Mr. Karan was present at almost every meal of ours and he took care of us very well. We really enjoyed our time at the palace and everyone who visits it would. It’s a great team here.

Our stay at Umaid Bhawan Palace was truly unforgettable. The palace is magnificent, and the hospitality of Mr Amit Singh was exceptional throughout our visit. A special thanks to Sikander for the wonderful palace tour—his deep knowledge, engaging storytelling, and passion for the palace's history made the experience truly memorable. He brought the heritage of this iconic palace to life. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a world-class heritage and palatial experience.
