About the Property:
Perched on top of a granite hillock in the midst of a vast expanse of the Aravalli Range, surrounded by hills dotted with havelis, villages and temples, Alila Fort Bishangarh is one of the best resorts in Jaipur.
A heritage hotel in Jaipur with adaptive reuse of a 230-year-old warrior fort into one of India’s most unique heritage properties. This historic landmark is a unique example of Jaipur Gharana architecture, influenced by both the Mughals and the British.
Extensive research and care were taken to develop the original structure and preserve its place in history. Design ideas of the past were encapsulated in a way that served today’s needs best. Taking the cue from what was found in the ruins, local traditional materials were used in a modern adaptation, to make it accessible for the younger generation, yet still connecting them to their roots.
According to historical records, this was once the residential abode for various kings, which explained the more stately decoration. Two of these royal quarters now house the main restaurant Amarsar, named after the birthplace of the royal Shekhawat clan.
The fort now begins a new legacy, forged in exceptional facilities and unforgettable experiences. Generously appointed guest rooms come with all the modern comforts and conveniences, including expansive bathrooms, footed/built-in bathtubs and large daybeds.
Down the hill is the Haveli, offering a labyrinth of spaces to chill, including a pool, bar, fitness centre, luxurious banquet lawns, and Play Alila – Kids’ Club – with separate areas for teenagers and toddlers.
For that connection with Mother Nature, there’s an organic garden, a fruit orchard and a greenhouse set up amidst the ravines as well as various green lounging areas to explore.
Alila Fort is one of the best resorts in Jaipur for its history, heritage and luxury.
