Abode Jaipur: A Modern Hideaway in the Pink City
Words by Kerol Izwan. Photos by Abode Jaipur and the author.
The moment I stepped into the lobby, the chaos of Jaipur’s streets seemed to vanish. It was just me, the soft glow of wall lamps, and the gentle flow of malachite-green tiles beneath my feet. I felt like I had stumbled into a world where contemporary design met the soul of the Pink City, a place that was both familiar and entirely new. Every detail, from the stair rail motifs to the brushed sandy walls of my room, whispered stories of the city outside, yet invited me to pause, breathe, and simply be. The atmosphere made me want to linger, sip a coffee, and just watch time slow down.

A few weeks ago, we featured Abode Bombay, a chic, contemporary hotel in Mumbai. Popular among design-conscious travellers who value both style and comfort, Abode Boutique Hotels recently expanded with a new branch in the capital city of Rajasthan, Jaipur. Open to the public since November 2025, Abode Jaipur welcomes visitors with a gleaming presence that feels both grand and inviting.
Jaipur is a city of pink façades, bustling markets, and centuries-old traditions, but what if you could step into a space that feels worlds apart, yet somehow completely Jaipur at heart? Abode Jaipur does just that. Behind its gleaming contemporary façade lies a sanctuary where design, comfort, and the soul of the Pink City converge. From sunlit rooms to quiet libraries, thoughtfully curated details, and spaces made for both work and leisure, every corner tells a story. For travellers seeking style, serenity, and a hint of discovery, this is a Jaipur experience unlike any other.

Stepping further in, the contrast is immediately striking. Outside, Jaipur’s iconic pink and terracotta hues dominate the streets, while inside, soft greens and off-whites offer a calming visual respite. Curved arches, classic wall lamps, and a carefully curated ambience create a sanctuary that feels deliberate yet effortless. I could not help but admire the intricate stair handrails, painted the same soft green and adorned with motifs inspired by Jaipur’s vernacular design. Check-in was seamless, and the guided tour of the property made me realise just how thoughtfully every corner had been conceived.
One of the best highlights, of course, is the location. It is just a four-minute walk from Chhoti Chaupar metro station, which is very convenient for exploring the city. Nestled in the Kishanpole neighbourhood, famous for its bustling markets, colourful façades, and traditional craftsmen, the hotel itself feels like a story waiting to be discovered. It is unpretentious, rich in character, and deeply rooted in the local fabric, giving guests a sense of place before they even step inside.

The hotel offers 21 rooms across a few floors, each with its own personality. I stayed in a Superior Luxury room, the mid-tier option between Suite, Luxury, and Simple. Each room has its own identity, from painted walls to bedsheet patterns. My room, in soft canary yellow with a brushed, sandy texture, felt rustic, welcoming, and perfectly homey. Checked floor tiles in the same palette, paired with a chrome-bronze glazed bathtub, added subtle charm. Natural light filtering through refurbished wooden blinds created a warm and inviting atmosphere, merging modern comfort with classic elegance.
The mezzanine floor features a long corridor that doubles as a library, complete with sofas and seating, making it a perfect space to linger, read, or work. The dining area, occupying the other half of the floor in a comfortable L-shape, is spacious, airy, and bathed in natural light, allowing guests to move freely while enjoying meals or simply soaking in the atmosphere.

Throughout my stay, I was treated to top-notch hospitality. From check-in to guidance on city walks and dining options, every interaction felt warm, thoughtful, and effortless. I also had time to explore the lobby area, where a dedicated bar-style coffee corner adds a handsome and inviting touch. It is a small but perfect detail that complements Abode Jaipur’s character beautifully, inviting guests to pause for a moment of calm before heading back into the city’s vibrant streets.
Of all the properties under Abode Boutique Hotels, Abode Jaipur feels like the group’s boldest yet most grounded expression. Rooted in local culture, stylish yet unpretentious, and deeply thoughtful in every detail, it is more than a hotel; it is an experience. Every corner tells a story, inviting you to see Jaipur not just as a city of pink buildings, but as a place of discovery, design, and comfort.
