The changing tourism landscape has led hotels to go beyond conventional expectations and effortlessly blend local experiences with comfortable stays. Overlooking the Aravalli range, the fairly new DoubleTree Hilton Jaipur Amer effectively tunes in the city’s classic experiences with specially curated ones in the house. Just 30 minutes away from all the main attractions in Pink City, the 151 room key property is conveniently located right before entering Jaipur on the National Highway 8.
The very first DoubleTree property in Rajasthan, the hotel strengthens Hilton’s presence in a competitive region with two offerings in Jaipur. Away from the main city’s commotion, the hotel offers splendid views of the Aravalli making it ideal for weekend getaways and rooftop wedding functions. Owned by Govardhan Estate Private Limited and managed by Hilton, it includes Guest rooms, Suites, Deluxe and Accessible Rooms apart from the restaurants and banqueting facility.
Making sure the guests experience the local culture even at the hotel, special folk dances entertain the evening diners. A special kid’s playroom has been created near the lobby so young ones are engaged in various activities and often the management customizes evenings with magic shows and kathputli dance based on family guests preferences. The fitness centre, pool and dining- Aravalli Bar & Grill have been meticulously planned on the top floors ensuring guests fully cherish the scenic surroundings. Naturally blessed with splendid views of sunrise and sunset, one doesn’t have to even step outside the hotel to witness the same.
The hotel’s all-day dining restaurant The Amber Kitchen serves an expanse of local, North Indian as well as international dishes. Chef Suraj Chauhan’s team ensures the guests get a real taste of local cuisine with Rajasthani delicacies waiting to surprise your palette. From Dal Bati Churma, Jodhpur Pulao, Murgh ka Sweta, Laal Maas, Gobind Gutta Curry there are many classics on the menu that define this Indian state. At the same time, Chef Robin Srivastava’s experience as a pastry chef brings out some unique cake recipes that elevate the buffet’s offerings. From olive to spinach, there are many interesting combinations of cakes that one can find at the breakfast table.
As guidelines ease and states open up their borders, the property has witnessed a rise in Wedding as well as MICE queries. With a total of 1200 sq m of event space, the ballroom is well attached with a lawn and open-air reception area. While the roof-top restaurant can be used for day ceremonies, the banquet space is apt for main functions up to 300 guests. A dedicated planning team also assists in catering, meeting equipment and venue decoration. As a MICE facility, the hotel offers 6 meeting rooms and Hilton’s, ‘Create an Attendee Website’ service which adds more functionality to an event. The custom website for all events at Hilton hotels gives the attendees the flexibility to reserve their own rooms on their own time at the group’s special rate.
“The hotel’s proximity to all the main centres of the city as well as location surrounding the Aravallis has made it an ideal getaway among leisure travellers these past months. Many are visiting during weekdays benefitting from the ongoing work from home concept,” stated Sujeet Singh, Assistant Director, Food and Beverage.
A quick ride to the inner city takes you to hotspots like City Palace, Hawa Mahal. The major Forts like Amer and Jaigarh are within 20 km of the area. Planning day excursions to the city matched with quiet evenings at the hotel will fit in every traveller’s itinerary.
