Shiv Vilas Resort - Jaipur

Although the Shiv Vilas Resort, Jaipur, may have been constructed relatively recently, this majestic property, 20kms north of Jaipur in the industrial town of Kukas, feels centuries older. This dazzling white marble building and the long outdoor pond leading to its entrance remind guests of the Taj Mahal. Each of its deluxe rooms and larger suites are elaborately decorated in Rajput Princes style. The Ayurveda Spa and Health Club offers separate gentlemen’s and ladies' facilities, but guests can also get outdoor massages in gazebos overlooking the Aravalli Hills. A beauty salon and herbal boutique are also available. Guests may dine in the bar, beside the barbeque or at any of the 3 more formal restaurants. The historic Amber and Jaigarh forts are 6kms from this palatial retreat, while Jaipur’s bus and rail stations lie 14kms south.

Number of Rooms: 96
