What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
Also in The 50 Discovery and AFAR.
With just five suites it retains the intimacy of a private house, and each suite is named after a gemstone...
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Johri Bazaar sits right outside, where gemstone cutters work along winding lanes a short walk from Hawa Mahal.
The rooms
Each suite takes its palette from a gemstone. The pale-blue Neelam has a cushioned brass hanging swing.
Yoga and massage
Morning yoga takes place on the rooftop terrace, and a private treatment room offers Ayurvedic massages and reflexology.
The Restaurant at The Johri
The kitchen turns out an inventive vegetarian Indian menu made with organic seasonal produce and tandoor-baked breads.
The five guest rooms, which face a peaceful interior courtyard, are maximalist displays of color and texture, with scalloped arches and latticework.
At the table
The Pukhraj Lounge serves afternoon high chai and botanical cocktails beneath hand-painted murals of Rajasthani flora and fauna.
How it began

The Kasliwal family bought the Lal Haveli in 1871, when it served as a meeting place during India's freedom movement.
