Originally built in 1729 AD by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II for his beloved wife, Maharani Chandra Kanwar Ranawatiji, daughter of the Maharana of Udaipur. History calls it by various names like ‘MaJi Ka Bagh’; ‘Residency’ as called by British resident in Jaipur, ‘Prince’s House’(from 1947-1957), called after the property of the heir apparent Maharaj Kumar Bhawani Singhji).
After Maharani Chandra Kanwar Ramawatji’s stay in this palace, the Resident Political Officer made this his residence in the year 1821 and this palace came to be know as “Residency” from “Maji Ka Bagh”
With the change in the political setup, the palace lost its importance and was used mainly as a Guest House. When the last Maharaja Sawai Man Singh II decided to move his residence from Rambagh Palace to this Palace, it regained its old glory. After considerable additions and alterations, the royal family moved into the “Rajmahal Palace”, as it was now named towards the end of 1958.
Its list of high profile guests includes the name of personalities like Queen Elizabeth II, Prince Philip, Lord Mountbatten, Prince Charles, Mrs. Jacqueline and Lady Diana. Still continuing the tradition of the regal hospitality, Rajmahal Palace was converted into a hotel in 1980 after the royal family moved out to live in other Palaces. Be sure to feel the original flavor and relive the magical days of the Maharaja in full modern comfort, and admire the grand public spaces featuring crystal chandeliers and double-height ceilings.
