Jaipur is the capital of India’s Rajasthan state. It evokes the royal family that once ruled the region and that, in 1727, founded what is now called the Old City, or “Pink City” for its trademark building color. At the center of its stately street grid (notable in India) stands the opulent, colonnaded City Palace complex. With gardens, courtyards and museums, part of it is still a royal residence.
Across from the City Palace is Jantar Mantar, an open-air astronomical observatory from the early 18th century. Also nearby is the Hawa Mahal (Palace of the Winds), a former cloister for royal women fronted by a rippling 5-story screen of pink sandstone. Several kilometers outside the city center, elephants carry visitors uphill to the imposing Amer Fort, which features elaborate wall carvings and paintings. On the way to the fort, many visitors stop on the banks of Man Sagar Lake to photograph Jal Mahal, a partially submerged palace that famously reflects in the water.
Apr–May, Oct and Dec–Feb are popular travel months. Jaipur has a semi-arid climate. Apr–Jun is very hot, before the peak monsoon rains of Jul–Aug. The winter (Dec–Feb) has warm sunny days and cool evenings. The Jaipur Literature Festival (Jan) is a huge event also offering traditional music and dancing. Holi (Mar) is the spring festival of colors, when street revelers get covered in bright powder. The day after, Gangaur (Mar), held in honor of the Hindu goddess of fertility, features colorful street parades...

About Jaipur House - It has 27 rooms to offer for guest stay. More rooms being redeveloped which will offer luxury stay experience. It is at 5 min walking distance from the main market and Nakki Lake.
We were told that additional amenities (gym, swimming pool etc.) and few more rooms (luxury feel) will be ready in short span of time. We saw the work under progress.
The restaurant has picturesque view overlooking the market. The open garden offer birds eye view of Nakki Lake and the market. Just sit there and relax. The mountain view from the reception area side is one of its kind. The walk in the morning will definitely refresh you.
