07, October 2026: Raffles Jaipur has been recognised in the Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards 2026. The recognition reflects the property’s distinctive approach to luxury hospitality, where a strong sense of place, legendary Raffles service and the cultural richness of Rajasthan come together to create a deeply considered guest experience.
Set against the Aravalli hills, Raffles Jaipur brings the legendary Raffles legacy to Rajasthan through a contemporary interpretation of palace living. Inspired by the Zenana, the queen’s quarters of the Mughal court, the hotel is crafted in white marble and brought to life through hand-carved arches, intricate jaali screens, thikri mosaic work and details by local master artisans.
At the heart of the Raffles Jaipur experience is the brand’s legendary Butler Service, complemented by progressive North Indian cuisine at Arkaa, the London Tea Exchange experience at Safir Tea & Champagne Lounge, rooftop dining at Sehara and a 620-square-metre spa. A curated programme of artisan masterclasses, private concerts and cultural experiences further invites guests to discover Rajasthan through a distinctly Raffles lens.
The recognition adds to Raffles Jaipur’s growing collection of international accolades, following its recognition with Two MICHELIN Keys and honours at the inaugural Tatler Best India Awards, where the hotel was named among the Top 20 Hotels and its literary-inspired Writers Bar was recognised among the Top 20 Bars.
The recognition further underscores Raffles Jaipur’s position as a distinctive luxury address in India, where contemporary palace living, thoughtful hospitality and the enduring spirit of Rajasthan come together to create experiences that linger long after a guest’s stay.
