Jaipur Inn has amazing memories for me. I first stayed there on a school trip in 1977, a bunch of scraggly pre teens. It was a bare bones but very warm place. We slept in the basement in on mattresses. The place was full of foreign travelers, many of them overlandees with campers. There were some dorms and also tents pitched by a few I the garden. It was clean friendly with great food, simple home cooked. It just had a real warm vibe
and I think that stayed with me somewhere. Then in 1995 I had to take my office team for site work to Jaipur and we were looking for a good clean place, and I remembered Jaipur Inn! Place was now much bigger but the food and warmth remained exactly the same.
It still had a great vibe, was clean airy neat and friendly. Lots of interesting people to interact with. I remember spending the ccx evening sharing a beer with a team of German carpenters. There were traveling but also building a gazebo on the terrace I think.
I walked by the kitchen one evening to enquire what’s for dinner. I was introduced to Pushy ( Pushpender, the owner) he was busy preparing koftas. That’s how home made the the food is ! We enjoyed the evening meal and much more.
You wont find a place like it in a hurry. If you want to feel you are part of a family and friends group, meet great people be affectionately looked after, if you are a traveler in the true sense..This is the place for you. A place with a long legacy a place forever evolving
