Madhuban - A Heritage Home

My daughter and me rolled into Jaipur late at night after a long day on the road from Delhi and Agra. We were immediately welcomed by Mr Singh and shown to our rooms. The hotel is an historic family home dating from the early 20th century and is gorgeous with marble floors original woodwork and real chunky keys. The rooms are clean and air conditioned and very unique, each with its own bathroom. The staff are amazing and very attentive to any needs. We started each day with breakfast served in the dining room before we set out for the day sightseeing. I strongly recommend staying here if you are in Jaipur if you want to get a feel for the way people lived years ago.

Hotel madhuban is a beautiful heritage hotel just outside the centre of Jaipur. It feels like a place out of time when you walk through the gates - has lovely swimming pool, large garden and parakeets too. Staff could not have been more helpful and accomodating and rooms a good size with a safe..very happy we stayed there!

First the good: this hotel has very helpful and friendly staff who do try their best to help you to have a good, enjoyable stay. But the hotel is a bit in need of an update. The Rooms are a bit shabby in places (ours had quite a bit of peeling paint) and you need a bit of imagination to match the hotel with the photos on line (especially the dining room and the outside). With a bit of investment this place could be great …

Beautiful Rajasthan sanctuary. Super lovely family run Haveli. Breakfast and pool very good, rooms excellent with great rooftop views of the city. Good eating and bars nearby. 1 km walk to train station.

This property is not far away from the railway station and is easily reachable by a cab or local autos. It is located in a residential area, so the surroundings are peaceful. We had booked 2 rooms, and got only 1 room on time. The second room got delayed by a couple of hours. The rooms are generally good, they have the vibe of a heritage property and are spacious. The staff is quite courteous and always ready to help. We also availed their complementary breakfast which was decent enough. Coming to the downsides of this place, First and foremost, they have serious scarcity of mirrors in the rooms. One of ours didn’t even have a single mirror in the whole room, and just had a half mirror in the washroom. Another downside is lack of ventilation in washrooms. Their washrooms do not have a vent/exhaust fan at all, and the only window which it had opened in one of their hall areas! Overall, its a good property if you are looking to stay for a couple of days.

Maduban occupa un bel edificio vecchiotto in una zona residenziale di Jaipur, arredato con mobili d’epoca. Le foto alle pareti forse richiamano tempi passati in cui l’albergo aveva attratto persone importanti e famose. Tuttavia la realtà di oggi è meno brillante… l’albergo è rimasto il medesimo di (forse) 50 anni fa ma i tempi e le esigenze si sono evoluti. La serratura delle porte realizzata con chiavistelli chiusi da grandi lucchetti non è più attuale. La mia stanza era completamente priva di finestre. I letti, alcuni a baldacchino, sono duri e scomodi. La prima colazione è limitata nella scelta delle pietanze. L’albergo dispone anche di una piccola piscinetta. Inoltre vi è anche un ristorante dotato di una scelta limitata di piatti e di un servizio piuttosto lento. L’albergo dispone di un ristorante con una limitata scelta di piatti e un servizio lento.
