There are a variety of Jaipur accommodation options in many different areas and also ranging in price. We decided to stay in Bani Park which is the most popular area for tourists to stay in Jaipur. If you are traveling around India by train, then we also recommend trying to stay within a close distance to the train station to make it easier.

The staff here are known to be very friendly and help you with anything you need. The rooms are cosy and the hotel even has a lovely garden as well as a swimming pool. You’re sure to have a nice quiet stay at Madhuban Heritage Home.

Nahar Singh Haveli – Budget: We stayed at Nahar Singh Haveli and enjoyed our stay here. The hotel is located in a quiet street which was nice to get away from the busy India streets. There was also restaurants within walking distance and is close to the train station. The rooms were clean and also had TV. You can also find a restaurant on the rooftop which was perfect when you don’t want to walk around.
