The Blissful Experience of Heritage Hotels in Jaipur

April 5, 2019 By Jimmy Huss

After an amazing experience at Delhi, we packed our bags and headed to the Pink City, Jaipur during our recent travel in India. Our train was at 6 AM in the morning from Delhi. We were hoping that our stay at Jaipur was as comfortable as possible for us to rejuvenate. Alsisar Haveli at Jaipur is where we chose to stay. It’s perfect for all types of travelers and is even great if you’re traveling with kids. I must tell you that we wouldn’t find a better place for sure!

Where is Alsisar Haveli Jaipur?

Alsisar Mahal is at the heart of the pink city, Jaipur. With tons of amazing things to do you are sure to never be bored. The distance of popular and frequented destinations from Alsisar is given below:

The History of Alsisar Haveli Jaipur:

Jaipur is as such famous for its marvelous private mansions or Havelis. The Mahal is located in the Alsisar village and so it got its name. To be specific, the small town of Alsisar is located in Jhunjhunu district, in the north western side. This is situated near Shekhawati. It was claimed in the year 1737. The royal family of Thakur resided here in the part. They belonged to the Kachawa clan of Rajputs. This Mahal takes pride of the fact that it stood strong even after a bombing by British in the past. The Alsisar Mahal is now under the control of Alsisar Group of Hotels. In 2012, it became a member of Historic Hotels Worldwide.
