Raffles Jaipur Unveils a Majestic Winter Sanctuary

Tucked into the serene folds of the Aravalli Hills in Kukas, Raffles Jaipur invites guests to embrace a magical winter escape within its reimagined palace. Defined by scalloped archways, intricate mouldings, handcrafted furnishings, opulent corridors, and delicate accents of gold, the palace brings together culturally rooted hospitality, curated festive experiences, seasonal gastronomy, and the hallmark Raffles service to create a stay steeped in quiet indulgence.

This December, Raffles Jaipur unveils two exquisite festive stay experiences thoughtfully designed to elevate the season into moments of wonder, warmth, and effortless celebration.

Christmas Stay Experience

The Christmas Journey begins with a serene sundowner at Sehara, a tranquil hideaway where festive cocktails, mulled wine, canapés, and cultural performances unfold against the soft evening glow. The evening transitions into an elegant Christmas Eve dinner at Safir, complemented by a live band that lends an air of melody, warmth, and gentle enchantment.

New Year’s Eve Stay Experience

Guests welcoming the New Year begin their celebrations with a refined afternoon tea at Safir, accompanied by cocktails and a soulful violin performance. As dusk settles, the celebrations ascend to a grand New Year’s Eve gala dinner, complete with live music and the unmistakable Raffles spirit of refinement.

Throughout the month, the palace embraces the festive season with gingerbread installations, winter teas, and seasonal menus at Safir, creating a thoughtful build-up to each signature celebration. True to its ethos, Raffles Jaipur remains committed to warm, family-friendly experiences that honour tradition while offering contemporary comfort.

Each suite and room at Raffles Jaipur is a testament to craftsmanship, featuring hand-painted ceilings, camel-bone inlay furniture, and décor created by skilled local artisans. At the heart of every stay is the legendary 24-hour Raffles Butler Service, offering discreet, intuitive care while guiding guests through the heritage-rich palace and the cultural tapestry of Rajasthan – the land of stories, traditions, and timeless elegance.

The culinary landscape across the palace reflects a journey of flavours:

• Arkaa presents progressive North Indian cuisine
• Sehara offers Mediterranean-inspired dishes framed by sweeping Aravalli views
• Writers Bar delights with literary-inspired mixology and an intimate atmosphere
• Safir celebrates tea-led tasting experiences and seasonal specialities

Completing the retreat, the Raffles Spa offers a sanctuary of rejuvenation with a traditional hammam, Jacuzzi, steam room, rooftop infinity pool, mineral pools, a state-of-the-art fitness centre, and therapies inspired by ancient global wellness traditions.

This festive season, Raffles Jaipur invites guests to discover a holiday crafted around simple pleasures, exceptional service, evocative flavours, and immersive moments woven with the quiet luxury and soulful charm that define the Raffles experience.
