The RAAS, Jodhpur

Nestled beneath the stunning Mehrangarh Fort, RAAS Jodhpur is an exquisite boutique hotel that seamlessly integrates traditional Rajasthani architecture with modern design elements. The hotel consists of four structures, the oldest dating back to the late 18th century, which originally served as the residence for the Maharaja's family. 

Surrounding this historic haveli are three contemporary buildings crafted from local rose-red sandstone, ensuring a harmonious blend of the old and the new. With only 39 rooms, RAAS offers an authentic boutique experience. The decor is elegant and minimalist, allowing the breathtaking views of the fort to take center stage from nearly every room. Some suites boast exposed sandstone walls and graceful arches, while all rooms feature balconies that invite guests to immerse themselves in the picturesque surroundings. As you stroll between the buildings, you will meander through serene gardens accompanied by the gentle rustle of lemongrass and the occasional splash of a frog diving into the tranquil pond. 

An outdoor pool, bordered by cabanas for shade, complements the spa that provides a variety of holistic treatments. The culinary offerings are exceptional, utilizing seasonal vegetables and herbs from their own organic garden, along with spices sourced from a 200-year-old spice shop. Guests can choose to dine in the elegant dining room or on the terrace, enjoying a romantic meal with views of the illuminated fort. Jodhpur, known as the Blue City, is a captivating destination, conveniently located just a short walk from the Clock Tower and vibrant markets.
