8 Reasons to Love the Laxmi Palace Heritage Hotel in Jaipur

  1. As we alighted from the Jet Airways Aircraft at Jaipur’s Sanganer Airport, we were welcomed by a smiling chauffeur carrying a placard with our name on it from the Laxmi Palace Heritage Hotel. The man was dressed in traditional Rajasthani attire complete with a colorful bandhini turban on his head. The pick-up was in an Air-conditioned car and the drive was pleasant to the hotel.
  2. Upon reaching we were greeted with garlands and sprinkled with scented rose water. A vermillion tilak was made on our foreheads. There was genuine warmth in the welcome and it was really heartening.
  3. The interiors of the Heritage Hotel were artistically made up with paintings and murals of forts, palaces, kings and queens of Rajasthan. It felt like walking back in those olden days.
  4. The rooms were tastefully decorated with ethnic furnishings and the lighting was just perfect for normal use as well as night purposes.
  5. The bathrooms had running hot and cold water and were having all modern fittings in them.
  6. The beds were so soft that we nicely snuggled under the freshly laid spotless white sheets and fell asleep for a couple of hours to relax from jet lag.
  7. In the evening as we walked into the primly structured garden lawn a cool breeze whiffed on our faces. Somewhere it seemed there were sprinklers running that made the atmosphere pleasant.
  8.  As dusk started falling in, the aroma of spicy Rajasthani cuisine floated into our nostrils, tickling our appetite and we straight away headed to the Manuhaar Restaurant within the hotel premises and had our first taste of delicious Dal Baati Churma with the Garlic Chutney and sweetened glass of Lassi.
We will never forget the hospitality that we experienced at the Hotel Laxmi Palace in Jaipur, and so I took time out to jot down the 8 reasons to love the Laxmi Palace Heritage Hotel in Jaipur.
