Umaid Bhawan Palace

Special thanks to full team of Umaid bhavan including Ishpreet, Rahul (housekeeping), Shorbit (Chef) and saadaqui ji for their efforts and hospitality Loved everything Thank u for makin our stay a memorable one From, Samani Family

Experienced the Taj hospitality after a long time. The courteousness and warmth of the staff and the surreal ambience of the palace is not something that we will forget soon!

No words can express a Taj experience, it just needs to be experienced. I wanted to create a life long memory so opted for a short vacation at the best Taj property - Umaid Bhavan, Jodhpur. A property which speaks history at each corner, Taj hospitality felt in each moment. Touched by the empowerment given by Taj to each of their team member. Delicious food, ambience and warmth experienced at each transaction. Good wishes to Taj for all hospitality and a touch of class (par excellence). No doubt Taj properties are best in class and are awarded for its numero uno position.

Staying at Umaid Bhavan in the Royal Suite felt like living inside a dream. The palace itself is majestic, a sight that stirs awe both in the bright Jodhpur sun and under the starry night sky. Yet what makes the experience truly unforgettable is the hospitality. As a Rajasthani proverb says, Padharo Mhare Des, Mehmano sa roop Bhagwan….this spirit of warmth shines through in every corner of Umaid Bhavan. From the moment we arrived, the welcome was beyond expectation. Parkhee made us feel instantly at home, offering not just a seamless check in but also a private tour of the palace that made the history of the place come alive. Sajjanji, with endless patience and cheer, turned photographer extraordinaire, capturing hundreds of pictures for us across different parts of the palace and at different times of day, making sure every memory stayed with us. The team at Risala deserves equal praise. Narendar, Karan, Shobit and Rudresh served not just food but care on a plate. Every meal felt curated for us, and the attention to detail made dining an experience rather than just a routine. My husband who wasn’t feeling like having any dinner after the hi-tea was awestruck with the team’s compassion and rightly so when they, by themselves, bought a rajasthani delicacy and ice creams for him, keeping his allerigies in mind Umaid Bhavan also delights its guests with in house privileges that add layers to the stay. From exclusive heritage walks and access to museum galleries, to folk performances during Dinner and Breakfast, every activity feels like a peek into the cultural soul of Rajasthan. Add to that the serene spa, the vintage cars, and the feeling of being part of the palace family, and you realise it is more than just a hotel. They say hospitality is not about how grand the place is, but about how it makes you feel. Umaid Bhavan manages to combine both. The palace takes your breath away, but the people here touch your heart. This is not just a stay, it is a memory etched forever

Parkhee was an amazing host and guide for us when we toured Umaid bhawan palace hotel today, it was great to know such beautiful things about this historical property, very knowledgeable and enjoyable experience, thanks again to parkhee
