"A regal heritage home on the Amber side of Jaipur, with a rooftop pool"
Umaid Residency sits at Kukas on the NH8 Delhi–Jaipur highway, on the Amber side of the city — a traffic-free spot with ample parking, roughly 20 minutes from the Pink City and 7 km from Amber Fort. The property calls itself 'A Regal Heritage Home': Rajasthan-inspired design and antique-styled furniture, positioned as affordable heritage rather than palace pricing.
The rooftop swimming pool is the signature — Aravalli hill views, what the hotel describes as a calm, private, boutique-hotel ambience, 'perfect for morning swims & sunset relaxation'. Rooms across three categories carry Rajasthani decor with practical kit: VRV air-conditioning that heats in winter, electric kettle, in-room safe, 32" LED TV.
Umaid Cafe and Restaurant serves Indian, Rajasthani and Chinese cooking from its chefs, in an air-conditioned room hung with 18th-century portraits and antique-style furniture. The hotel also runs desert village safaris, ticketing and pickup services — and it's under four hours from Delhi by NH8, which makes it a natural first-night stop on a Delhi–Jaipur run.
Some facilities and experiences may be chargeable.

A Portuguese house of around 1919 at Siridao bridge in Goa Velha, lovingly restored from 2014 by local artisans and reborn as a six-room boutique hotel. Expect a courtyard pool between red arcaded wings, a waterfront cafe with a pastry chef they say is Le Cordon Bleu certified, five resident dogs and the sort of quiet that North Goa's beach belt forgot.
