One of the largest private residences in the world, Umaid Bhawan Palace was built between 1928 and 1943 on Chittar Hill above Jodhpur. The Maharaja of Jodhpur and his family still live in part of the palace; the rest operates as a hotel and museum.

The Art Deco interiors — by Polish designer Stefan Norblin — are unlike anything else in Rajasthan's palace circuit, all geometric murals and period furniture. The museum wing houses the royal family's vintage car collection, and the infinity pool looks straight out over Jodhpur's Blue City.

FAQ

Flying to Umaid Bhawan Palace — questions answered

How do I arrange a private flight to Umaid Bhawan Palace?

WhatsApp FlightKlub with your travel dates and passenger count. We arrange a private jet or turboprop to Jodhpur (JDH), the nearest airport to Umaid Bhawan Palace, and coordinate the 10-minute road transfer to the palace gates. We don't book the hotel room itself — that's arranged directly with the property or your travel advisor.

What's the flight time from Delhi to Jodhpur by private jet?

A light jet from Delhi to Jodhpur takes roughly 1 hour 10 minutes — significantly faster than the commercial connections to Jodhpur, which often route through Delhi or Mumbai with a layover.

Can FlightKlub combine Umaid Bhawan Palace with other Rajasthan palaces?

Yes — Jodhpur is a short hop from both Udaipur and Jaipur by turboprop, and FlightKlub regularly arranges multi-stop Rajasthan itineraries covering Umaid Bhawan, Taj Lake Palace or Oberoi Udaivilas in Udaipur, and Rambagh Palace in Jaipur.
