The tourism and travel business is flourishing in the country. Many parts of India attract large numbers of international visitors who enjoy the scenic beauty and cultural landmarks. Rajasthan is a region where people from across the globe come to explore the grand palaces and vibrant cities. Many luxurious hotels are situated in Rajasthan's cities, with rental prices running into lakhs of rupees. However, around New Year's Eve and the first of January, these prices skyrocket. One such hotel charges up to ₹1.5 million for a night’s stay.
In particular, we're looking at the Raj Palace Hotel in Jaipur, Rajasthan. The most luxurious room here, the Presidential Suite, is available at a staggering $17,700 (roughly INR 1,508,246) per night. Spanning 1,600 square feet, it boasts four double-bedded areas and numerous opulent amenities. Guests can enjoy a separate shower, bathtub, AC, Wi-Fi, workspace, coffee or tea maker, terrace, and adjustable lighting makeup mirror.
