Description :
The Diggi Palace, In
the heart of the pink city of Jaipur, is
the city seat of the Diggi family whose
ancient principality is located 75 Kms.
from the capital towards the western
frontier. The main building and its
surrounding bagh (Garden) as well as the
fountain was constructed by Shri Thakur
Saheb Pratap Singh Ji Diggi of the
ruling family of the house of Diggi
around 1860's.
Originally a Bagh (Garden retreat) for
the family, the House and its
surroundings with the lush green gardens
were used for holding the Durbar
whenever the Thakurs were here and also
to preside over the administration of
"Diggi Thikana or principality". The
Thakur was also supposed to hold
meetings with the king and also to keep
him updated with the local
administration of his respective
province. Later converted into the
permanent residence for the family, it
was converted to a Hotel in 1990.
Accommodation :

unique with respect to size and
character. Set in 10,000 Sq. Ft. of
meticulously tended lawns and shady
garden, the Hotel offers a range of

traveler, from simple rooms to luxurious
doubles with en suite bathrooms.

the peaceful environs of the hotel or

the dust and noise and the usual
hustle-bustle of the city.. Rooms and
cottages facing a beautiful lawn" as one
