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

Felt like Royalty

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 16 hours ago

Most impressive hotel property I have seen in my life which was supplemented by a really royal experience right from check-in to check out Thanks to Alka, Shweta, Malvika, and Nishu for making the entire stay like a breeze for us, for our room upgrade and surprising us with the anniversary celebrations in the room. Kudos to chef Kush and the servers in Risala for always being there to oblige us. Kush was a pleasure to talk to when it came to discussing food. Siddiqui was a walking encyclopedia on the palace history. While, Harshit was always around smiling and anticipating our asks. This was a real à la carte on demand. Finally, thanks t Chetan for acting as our personal photographer on the trip who was always ready to suggest the best spots and locations in the palace.

A Truly Royal Experience!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 day ago

From the moment you arrive at the breathtaking Umaid Bhawan Palace you know you are somewhere unique and special. Met by Gaurav and the ever-smiling Alka along with red carpet, rose petals and music. An arrival fit for for a Maharaja and Maharani entering the most wonderful domed building. Our butler Sikander took care of our every need and made this a very special occasion with Mohammed and others. We had guided tours of the palace and the museum a special dinner and even planted a tree! Even though our butler from previous occasions Mr Swaroop was on leave he was still regularly in touch and orchestrating procedures from a distance, such is the commitment of staff at Umaid Bhawan Palace! Breakfast, lunch, dinner and even afternoon tea were very well catered for in Rizala restaurant (outdoor Pillars was not in use due to the searing heat).Restaurant and bar staff including Gordhan, Mahaveer, Saddique, Yakub, Aman, Kapil and Esther (keep going with the Hindi -it sounded good to us!) would make sure sure that you could be neither hungry nor thirsty. A really important point to note here is that I have recently been diagnosed as coeliac, so any brush with gluten would simply ruin my entire holiday. Thankfully the fantastic Chef Kush, his team and the waiting staff all ensured that there was no possibility of this (including a delicious gluten free birthday cake!). The rooms are beautifully decorated with the finest Rajasthani style and incredibly clean, Narayan from room services even gave us both a foot Spa in our room! And the spa staff, led by the wonderful Mr Ankush gave us a great massage. You get the feeling that all of the staff here (including the small army of gardeners, cleaners, kitchen staff, porters and security) are driven to make sure that you have the most incredible stay in one of the worlds finest locations. Oh…and did I mention the peacocks?

Best Stay Experience

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 weeks ago

Staying at Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur was an unforgettable experience. The palace's grandeur and opulence, combined with impeccable hospitality, made it a truly royal stay. The luxurious rooms, adorned with exquisite decor, offered a glimpse into the rich heritage of Rajasthan. From indulging in gourmet dining to relaxing by the sparkling pool, every moment felt like a regal retreat. The palace's stunning architecture and sprawling gardens provided the perfect backdrop for creating lasting memories.
