Hotel Arya Niwas

Top choice in Jaipur


Just off Sansar Chandra Marg, this very popular travellers’ haunt has a travel desk, book and gift shop, and a range of in-house activities, from block printing and cooking to yoga lessons. The spotless rooms vary in layout and size so check out a few. Outside, there’s an extensive verandah facing a soothing expanse of lawn to loll about on.

For a hotel of 125 rooms it is very well run with several eco-initiatives, including reducing plastic wherever possible and providing clean drinking water on every floor and a reusable bottle in every room. The vegetarian restaurant also has espresso coffee.
