Raffles Jaipur, India Hotel

India

It's a big year for storied Raffles. Not only does the group's second Singapore property - an all-villa set-up on Sentosa Island - fling open the doors later in the year but they're branching into Rajasthan in a follow on from the 2021 Udaipur opening. Here, in India's famed Golden Triangle, they will reveal a tranquil 50-suite hotel, just outside the Pink City, that draws inspiration from the Zenana - women's quarters - of the Mughal Court. Opening this spring and heroing local craftsmanship, the palatial plot will immerse guests in the spirit of the region. Many rooms have private pools, and a large spa, indoor pool and rooftop garden will join its North Indian restaurant and Writers Bar.
