The 14 Best New Hotels of 2021 Are All Sustainable - AFAR
"Jaipur’s most famous hotels tend to be palatial affairs removed from city life, but a duo of young Indian hoteliers have opened an intimate new property that puts guests right in the thick of things. The Johri at Lal Haveli is built in a 19th-century merchant family’s haveli, or manor, within an ancient bazaar. The five guest rooms, which face a peaceful interior courtyard, are maximalist displays of color and texture, with scalloped arches and latticework made mainly of materials found in Rajasthan. Don’t miss dinner at the hotel’s restaurant, where chef Sonu Kumar prepares organic vegetarian dishes, including truffle cheese kulcha (a flaky bread) and tandoor oven–cooked, yogurt-marinated broccoli." - Jennifer Flowers
