The Rambagh Palace Hotel in central Jaipur is the epitome of old Rajasthani palaces converted into luxury hotels.

This unique dining experience  is great fun and completely unique.

The bar itself serves every cocktail imaginable, with exquisite bar snacks and canapés offered on a complimentary basis.
