Accor announces the addition of a new Raffles Hotels & Resorts to the vibrant region of Rajasthan in northern India. Raffles Ranthambore will open by mid-2027 and will be a 63-villa, ultra-luxury resort located near Ranthambore National Park.

The hotel will provide guests with views of beautiful lakes and savannas, as well as prime access to palaces, ancient ruins and the former hunting grounds of the Maharajas of Jaipur that have been transformed into a globally renowned wildlife reserve. Raffles Ranthambore is the perfect home base for animal lovers, photographers and adventurists looking to explore the park or catch a glimpse of royal Bengal tigers and soaring eagles.

Raffles Ranthambore will feature the brand’s signature elegance and luxury amenities, such as its legendary butler service, signature Long Bar and a one-of-a-kind connection to the local culture. The 63 villas will include 15 luxury tented stays, family suites and a honeymoon suite.

“We are thrilled to grow our presence in India, working with Sukhani Ventures to bring Raffles’ inspirational spirit to the breathtaking landscape of Ranthambore. This extraordinary destination, where history and wildlife intertwine, provides the perfect setting for our legendary hospitality. With bespoke programming, highly-personalized service, and a design that pays homage to the grandeur of the region, Raffles Ranthambore will offer an unforgettable experience—one that blends a sense of adventure with the enchanted glamour our guests cherish,” said Omer Acar, CEO, Raffles Hotels & Resorts.

Spring Ahead

I hope the weather this winter has not caused too much disruption of your travel plans. Some very difficult days of snow and deep freeze nearly shut down travel in the eastern United States.
