Alsisar Haveli

Overview

About this property

Alsisar Haveli is a heritage hotel in the heart of Jaipur's Pink City, on Sansar Chandra Road. It was built in 1892 as a nobleman's townhouse, and it was converted into a heritage hotel in 1994, as the hotel's own site says. It still feels like a grand old house, not like a modern hotel.

The haveli belongs to the Shekhawat branch of the Kachawa clan of Rajputs, descendants of the family of Maharaja Udaikaran of Amer. That history is in the walls, the courtyards and the painted details all around the hotel.

The hotel has 45 heritage-style rooms, as its accommodation page says. They have antique furniture, intricately carved poster beds and medieval motifs on fabrics, which together recreate the feel of royal Rajasthani living. The Sheesh Mahal, a hall of mirrors, adds to the old-world feel.

Alsisar Haveli suits people who like old buildings, courtyards and a quiet pace. It is in the middle of Jaipur, so the old city sights are easy to reach, but inside the haveli, everything is calm. If you like heritage stays with real history, you will like it here.

Rooms

Rooms made for rest

The rooms at Alsisar Haveli are heritage-style rooms, tastefully crafted and well equipped, as the hotel's own accommodation page says. They have antique furniture, carved poster beds and traditional Rajasthani fabrics, which make each room feel different from a normal hotel room.

The rooms are large, with high ceilings and attached bathrooms. After a day out in Jaipur, a cool, quiet room with old-world charm is a good place to come back to.

If you want a particular room style, ask the hotel when you book. The hotel also has a maharaja suite for a more grand stay, as its accommodation page says.

Room types and prices change with the season, so the hotel's own website will have the latest list. We do not show prices here because they change often, and we do not want to show you an old price.

Food & drink

Where to eat

The hotel has a dining room in the haveli, with high ceilings and elegant decor. Meals here feel like part of the heritage experience, not just a place to eat. The dining hall, with its chandeliers, is one of the most beautiful rooms in the hotel.

If you want to eat outside the hotel, the old city is close by, with many places for Rajasthani food. But for a quiet dinner inside the haveli, the dining room is always there.

One small tip: try to have at least one dinner inside the haveli during your stay. Eating in a 1892 townhouse, with courtyards around you, is part of why people come here.

Things to do

A slow day at the haveli

A good day at Alsisar Haveli starts slow. Walk through the courtyards in the morning, when they are cool and quiet. Then breakfast, and out into Jaipur for the sights. The old city, Hawa Mahal and City Palace are all easy to reach from here.

In the afternoon, the swimming pool in the courtyards is a good place to cool down. The pool is warm and inviting, and the courtyards around it are cool and elegant, even in the heat.

In the evening, go up to the rooftop for the view of Nahargarh Fort, as the hotel's accommodation page mentions. Then dinner in the dining room, and a quiet night in your heritage room.

If you have another day in Jaipur, use it for Amber Fort in the morning and the markets like Johari Bazaar in the evening. The haveli is a good base for both, and coming back to its courtyards after a busy day is a pleasure in itself.

Location

Where it is, and what is near

All the hotels on this page are in Jaipur city. From here, the old city is easy to reach by taxi. The Hawa Mahal, the City Palace and the markets of the old city are the places most visitors go to first. Amber Fort is a little further out, and it is worth half a day on its own.

If you are coming by taxi from Delhi, your driver will drop you at the hotel gate. For going around Jaipur the next day, you can book a taxi for the full day, or take short trips one by one. Cheapcab runs Delhi to Jaipur taxis, and local Jaipur trips can be arranged with the hotel or a local driver.

We have not written distances here on purpose. Road work and traffic change travel time in Jaipur, so a fixed number would go out of date fast. Ask your driver for the time on the day you travel.

If this is your first time in Jaipur, these are the places most people visit: Amber Fort, Hawa Mahal, City Palace, Jantar Mantar, Jal Mahal, and the old city markets like Johari Bazaar and Bapu Bazaar. You do not need to see all of them in one day. Pick two or three, and keep the rest for your next visit.

Getting here

How to reach the hotel

Most guests reach Jaipur by road from Delhi. The drive is about 300 km on a good highway, and most people leave in the morning and reach Jaipur by the afternoon. If you leave late, you will reach in the evening, which is also fine, as the hotels are easy to find and the staff are there at all hours.

If you come by train or flight, you will reach Jaipur station or Jaipur airport first. From there, a short taxi ride takes you to the hotel. Keep the hotel name and address ready on your phone, and share it with your driver before you start. That avoids confusion at the end of a long journey.

One practical tip: if you are booking a taxi from Delhi, book it a day early. Morning pickups get booked fast, and a confirmed booking means you do not have to bargain with drivers at the last minute. Cheapcab takes 20 percent advance, and the rest you pay after your trip.

Best time

Best time to visit Jaipur

The best time to visit Jaipur is from October to March. The weather is cool and pleasant, and you can walk around the old city without getting tired fast. This is also the time when most tourists come, so hotels get full early. If you plan to come in these months, book your hotel a few weeks ahead.

April to June is very hot in Jaipur. If you come in summer, plan your sightseeing for the morning and evening, and rest in the afternoon. The palace gardens are still nice in the early morning, before the heat builds up.

July to September brings rain. The city looks green and fresh, and there are fewer tourists. Roads can get wet, so keep some extra time for travel. For a quiet trip at a lower rush, the rainy season is actually a good choice.

Good to know

Before you book

Cheapcab does not book hotels. You book a hotel on its own official website, using the button on this page. Prices, room types, check-in time and cancellation rules are all on the hotel's site, and they change with the season. Always read them there before you pay.

The photos on this page are from the hotel's official website, and the source link is given under the photo gallery. We do not use photos from booking sites or stock photo sites for hotels.

If you need a taxi to reach the hotel, or to go around Jaipur after you arrive, you can book it from Cheapcab. The taxi fare and the hotel stay are separate. Your taxi driver will not charge you for the hotel, and the hotel will not charge you for the taxi.

One last practical tip for Jaipur: carry a water bottle and wear comfortable shoes, as the old city is best seen on foot and the days get hot. Keep your hotel's name and address saved on your phone, so any taxi driver can take you back without confusion. Small shops in the markets often prefer cash, so keep some small notes handy along with your card.
