The Oberoi Rajvilas

$$$$, Jaipur

Fodor's Review:

Twenty minutes outside Jaipur, Rajvilas is a destination unto itself. Marble-and-stone carving and handmade brass doors have created a hotel that's luxurious and blends well with the arid environment. You arrive into a lovely scene: pastel-color buildings, orchards, and fountains. Rajvilas's standard double rooms are spacious and minimalist in concept, but the real stand-out is the marble and glass bathtubs, which look out over private gardens. The separate villas with private pools have been a favorite with Bill Clinton (price range for these villas is from US$1,500 to US$2,250, several times the price of an ordinary room). Luxury tents are also available. The ayurvedic spa treatments are gaining a worldwide reputation as some of the most comprehensive available. The food at the courtyard restaurant is excellent, with a Continental-Indian menu that changes daily. Service is impeccable.
