Leisure Hotels Group (LHG), a leading name in experiential hospitality, has announced the debut of its second property in Rajasthan with the addition of the storied Royal Heritage Haveli in Jaipur to its expanding portfolio. Rooted in the spiritual and cultural heartland of Uttarakhand, LHG continues its foray into heritage tourism by restoring this 18th-century architectural marvel into a refined boutique retreat.
A Regal Legacy Reimagined
Originally built in the 1700s by His Highness Madho Singhji as a royal hunting lodge, the Royal Heritage Haveli has undergone a meticulous transformation, emerging as a symbol of understated luxury and cultural authenticity. Nestled in the heart of the Pink City, the haveli seamlessly fuses its regal lineage with contemporary sophistication, offering guests a deeply immersive experience into Rajasthan’s royal traditions, art, and architecture.
Strategic Expansion of Experience-Led Stays
“Our entry into Rajasthan marks a significant chapter in our journey,” said Vibhas Prasad, Director, Leisure Hotels Group. “Jaipur’s vibrant cultural tapestry aligns beautifully with our ethos of curating experience-led stays. With our first heritage venture in Ranthambhore, this addition in Jaipur further reinforces our commitment to crafting soulful getaways rooted in local legacy and personalized hospitality.”
Having already made its mark with heritage offerings in Nainital and Haridwar, LHG views the acquisition of this nearly 300-year-old haveli as a continuation of its vision to preserve and celebrate India’s architectural treasures while delivering elevated, emotionally resonant guest experiences.
A Home Steeped in History
“The Royal Heritage Haveli has been part of our family for generations,” said Shambhavi Singh, Director, Royal Heritage Haveli. “It has always been a home that welcomed guests with warmth, grace, and authenticity. Our ancestors hosted dignitaries and travelers during an era when Queen Mary’s visit in 1911 left its mark on the very road that leads here. Partnering with Leisure Hotels Group allows us to preserve that tradition while elevating the experience for today’s discerning travellers.”
Boutique Elegance Meets Royal Comfort
The haveli features 25 bespoke suites, each thoughtfully restored with original frescoes, intricate jharokhas, and heritage design elements that reflect Jaipur’s royal charm. The interiors marry old-world grandeur with modern sensibilities to create a serene and luxurious ambiance.
Culinary offerings include the charming Kigelia Court, an open-air all-day fine dining space serving gourmet local and global cuisine, and the Mehrab Bar, a moody and elegant watering hole offering rare spirits and heritage-inspired dishes, including “lost recipes” handed down through generations of royal kitchens.
Wellness and Celebrations in a Heritage Setting
Guests can indulge in traditional Indian healing therapies at the Frangipani Spa, or unwind by the serene outdoor pool surrounded by manicured gardens. The property also offers versatile indoor and outdoor venues, perfect for intimate weddings, private gatherings, and bespoke corporate events—all within the lush, tranquil setting of a centuries-old haveli.
With its prime location, rich legacy, and curated luxury, the Royal Heritage Haveli marks a meaningful addition to Leisure Hotels Group’s Rajasthan portfolio, reinforcing the brand’s stature as a leading custodian of India’s hospitality heritage.
