We say the place to stay in Jaipur is Tara Niwas. Housed in a renovated old family home, conveniently located close to the railway and bus stations (in Bani Park), the hotel offers clean and simple rooms done up in traditional Rajasthani fabrics and prints. The restaurant serves mouthwateringly delicious home-style vegetarian food at disgustingly low prices. We recommend room number 22 – it’s huge, the bathroom has a bathtub and there’s an attached little kitchenette-cum-dressing room and all this at no extra cost. Indeed, this heritage hotel away from the bustle of the old city is well within the most frugal budget for a home away from home. Contact: 0141-2206823, taraniwas.com
