Where History Becomes a Home — The Raj Palace Story
Hidden amidst the pink hues of Jaipur stands The Raj Palace, a world where time pauses and history whispers through every marble corridor. Once the royal residence of the Chaumoo family, this 18th-century mansion is the oldest palace in Jaipur — built in 1727 by Thakur Mohan Singh Ji, Prime Minister of the princely state of Jaipur and descendant of Thakur Manohardas Ji, one of Amber’s most valiant generals. What began as The Chaumoo Haveli — the city’s first grand mansion — evolved over centuries into a symbol of Rajput glory and Mughal refinement. From royal durbars and state banquets to moonlit serenades and hunting tales, The Raj Palace witnessed the golden age of Jaipur’s aristocracy — where every stone and fresco was an expression of art, courage, and devotion.
From Royal Residence to Living Heritage
As the world around it changed, the palace stood firm — a guardian of culture and grace. In 1995, the royal family of Chaumoo embarked on a loving restoration to transform their ancestral home into a luxury heritage hotel, ensuring that its soul remained untouched. Every arch and column was revived using traditional craftsmanship; every fresco and chandelier retold a forgotten story. The palace’s 70 opulent rooms and suites, especially its Museum Suites, were designed not merely as accommodations but as living galleries — displaying royal antiques, portraits, and heirlooms collected over 300 years. This transformation earned The Raj Palace the honor of being the World’s First Museum Suite Heritage Hotel — a unique fusion of authentic history and modern indulgence.
A Royal Experience Reimagined
Today, The Raj Palace continues to welcome guests as the royals once did — with warmth, ceremony, and reverence. Its architecture reflects a harmonious blend of Mughal grandeur and Rajput artistry, where delicate jaali screens, scalloped arches, and mirror-clad halls create an atmosphere of timeless luxury. Guests can dine like maharajas in the Swapna Mahal Restaurant, unwind in The Royal Spa, or stroll through fragrant courtyards and Charbagh gardens where fountains still sing beneath the stars. Every moment here — from an afternoon tea in the courtyard to an evening under the chandeliers — is crafted to evoke the elegance of a bygone era.
A Living Palace for the Modern World
Recognized globally for its architecture, authenticity, and hospitality, The Raj Palace has been celebrated by World Travel Awards, TripAdvisor, and Condé Nast Traveller as one of the finest heritage hotels in the world. It remains a sanctuary for travelers seeking more than luxury — those seeking a story. Here, history is not viewed through glass; it surrounds you. The laughter of courtiers, the fragrance of sandalwood, the shimmer of chandeliers — they still linger in the air, woven into every guest experience. To stay at The Raj Palace is to live inside history, to dine like royalty, and to dream within the walls of a legend.
