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.

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.

Our stay at Umaid Bhawan Palace was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, we were treated with genuine warmth and impeccable hospitality. Living in a palace rich with history while enjoying world-class luxury was a truly unforgettable experience. The grandeur of the architecture, the beautifully maintained gardens, the elegant interiors, and the breathtaking views made every moment feel royal. Rooms are spacious, very private and silent and every corner impeccably clean. Every detail reflected timeless elegance, and the service was flawless—attentive, personalized, and gracious. A stay at Umaid Bhawan Palace isn’t just a hotel experience; it’s a chance to live like royalty. Great value for money you spend. Mind blowing views in the very tourist location. Without a doubt, one of the most memorable and luxurious stays we’ve ever had. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an exceptional experience in Jodhpur. Our heartfelt thanks to Mr. Sikander Singh Ji for so kindly and patiently showing us around the palace and sharing its fascinating history. We are also deeply grateful to Mr. Karan Ji and Ms. Trisha Ji for their warm, attentive, and gracious service at the breakfast table, which made our morning even more special and Mr. Pawal Ji at the dinner table. Food was delicious and we enjoyed all the meals. The kids absolutely loved every moment of our stay and truly felt like little royals exploring the magnificent palace. Every corner offered a new experience, making the visit both exciting and unforgettable. The pool was a definite highlight—beautiful, refreshing, and the perfect place to relax while soaking in the regal surroundings. The palace gardens were equally enchanting, with graceful peacocks and a variety of beautiful birds roaming freely, creating a peaceful and magical atmosphere. Watching the peacocks up close was a special delight for the children, and every stroll through the gardens became a cherished family memory. The entire experience was extraordinary that we will treasure forever. We have returned home with countless beautiful memories and hearts full of gratitude. Thank you to the entire team at Umaid Bhawan Palace for making our stay truly unforgettable.

The first thing that strikes you apart from the grandeur of the property is the wonderful Hospitality at every step of the way.The staff really make you feel at home and we had a wonderful time celebrating my wifes birthday. We had a medical emergency at night which was really well handled by the hotel with a representative throughout with us to assist us in need. The food spread is wonderful and top notch,Saadique and Karan along with the others at the restaurant make you feel at ease and well looked after. Swaroop from housekeeping the rockstar along with his team indeed made our stay truly special. Sikander was at our beck and call at any given time and made the necessary arrangements whenever needed. All in all it truly felt special and we were sad while departing the property. Looking forward to staying with you soon again.
