What??? You visited Jaipur and didn’t stay at a Heritage
Hotel!!! Now I certainly didn’t want to hear such an outburst from family and
friends.
Though we had heard a lot about Jaipur and the wonderful
historic places of the city such as Jal Mahal, Hawa Mahal, City Palace, Amer,
Jaigarh and Nahargarh forts, etc, we really never had a chance to visit it. But
now it seemed as though, our thoughts would be turning into reality.
One of our friends suggested that we cash in on the Kitty
Pot Luck money and splurge the same on a visit to the world famous city of
Jaipur in Rajasthan, India. The group instantly liked the idea and we set about
making preparations for the visit. We bought maps and tourist guides, took out
our knapsacks, straw hats and what not to gear up for the trip.
The enthusiasm of the group was a merry one and everyone
wanted to put in their best efforts. Different roles were assigned to each one
of us. I had the task of selecting a cheap hotel in Jaipur to suit our budget. A
cozy and snugly decorated heritage hotel in Jaipur was the choice of our Kitty
group of friends.
Hotel Laxmi Palace fitted the bill perfectly with its near
proximity to all the popular destinations for sightseeing as well as
transportation facilities. The host and staff were really friendly and helpful,
décor had the heritage feel in it, food was excellent and the amenities were
contemporary and sparkling clean. It suited us economically and turned our
visit to Jaipur into a memorable one. Indeed,
a place to visit again with family and friends.
