Jaipur's Rambagh Palace Ranked World's Best Hotel: Here Are The Top Things About The Property
Rambagh Palace grabbed the top spot leaving behind properties like Ozen Reserve in Bolufushi Island, Maldives and Hotel Colline de France in Brazil's Gramado.
The Taj Rambagh Palace in Jaipur is named World's Best World in a recent compilation of the top 10 hotels in the world by the popular online leisure and travel site TripAdvisor.
How was the ranking done?
The rankings are based on the analysis of review data of over 1.5 million hotels from January 1 to December 31 last year. According to Tripadvisor, less than 1 per cent of 8 million listings on its platform is awarded the Best of the Best tanking, signifying "the highest level of excellence in hospitality."
Travellers' Choice by Tripadvisor identifies businesses that earn consistently great reviews on the platform. The winners are selected among the 10 per cent of listings on Tripadvisor. To be considered for the awards, the property must have at least 12 months of listing on Tripadvisor with threshold reviews within the period being evaluated.

A former royal residence
Rambagh Palace also referred to as ※The Jewel of Jaipur§ is the only Indian property among the top 10 on the list. A former royal residence, the palace was built in 1835. It is currently a luxurious hotel that gives visitors a one-of-a-kind glimpse of Indian culture and hospitality. Also, there are other facilities available to guests, such as a spa, a swimming pool, and numerous dining options.
The palace has maintained its majestic power, and if you explore it carefully, you will see that the interiors have been lavishly furnished with complex details, rich textures, sandstone balustrades, hand-carved marble latticework, and lovely gardens.

How others on the list fared
Rambagh Palace grabbed the top spot leaving behind properties like Ozen Reserve in Bolufushi Island, Maldives and Hotel Colline de France in Brazil's Gramado. Interestingly, none of the 10 top-rated hotels in the world are from the US. The domination of hotels from Asia, Trivadvisor believed, was an indication that the tourism industry has bounced back in the region. Brazil has the most winners in the world list.
