Raffles Jaipur has been recognised for its “Dramatic Design: A Majestic Tribute to Rajasthani Heritage in Jaipur” at Robb Report Hong Kong’s Best of the Best 2026 Travel, Experiences & Hospitality Awards.
The recognition was announced at a grand awards ceremony and gala dinner held on 23 October 2025 at The Murray, Hong Kong, celebrating the world’s finest luxury destinations and experiences.
Honouring timeless Indian craftsmanship
At this prestigious gathering of global hospitality visionaries, Raffles Jaipur was honoured for its striking architecture and timeless design, a reflection of India’s regal heritage reimagined through a contemporary lens.
Crafted from white marble and adorned with intricate jaalis/carved stone latticework, hand-painted frescoes, and Mughal-inspired arches, the hotel stands as an ode to Rajasthan’s artistic traditions. Each element, from its grand courtyards and serene plunge pools to its Writers Bar, Atrium Lounge, and Raffles Spa, embodies the pillars of Raffles: design, heritage, gastronomy, wellness, and legendary butler service.
A celebration of grace and craftsmanship
Rajat Sethi, Cluster General Manager, Raffles and Fairmont Jaipur, shared: “We are honoured to be recognised by Robb Report Hong Kong among the world’s best. This award is a celebration of Indian craftsmanship, timeless design, and our team’s dedication to creating meaningful and graceful experiences. At Raffles Jaipur, every detail is designed to evoke a sense of place, warmth, and belonging, where luxury feels deeply personal.”
A night of global excellence
The evening concluded with a black-tie dinner attended by honourees and luxury tastemakers from around the world, marking a celebration of excellence in craftsmanship, hospitality, and experiential travel.
The event, attended by global industry leaders, coincided with the Leaders of Luxury Summit 2025, a thought-leadership platform highlighting innovation and transformation within global hospitality and travel.
