The Property — Sunday Hotel
The Sunday Hotel in Jaipur’s Bani Park neighbourhood feels like a calm, mid-market base for exploring the city. The lobby is clean and air-conditioned, with a small front desk and a seating area decorated in Rajasthani textiles, but no grand statement. It suits budget-conscious travellers and small groups who want reliable wifi, a decent buffet breakfast and a pool to cool off in, not character or luxury. The USP is its rooftop restaurant and pool with views of the Nahargarh hills, plus a location about 15 minutes by rickshaw from the Hawa Mahal.
Chronicles of Jaipur
Jaipur was founded in 1727 by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, a Kachhwaha Rajput ruler and astronomer, as a planned city based on Vastu Shastra and early grid principles. Unlike older hill forts, its wide boulevards and symmetrical blocks were designed for trade, defence and the new gunpowder warfare of the 18th century. The city’s signature pink colour dates to a 1876 welcome for the Prince of Wales, later made mandatory in certain historic districts. Today, Jaipur retains its World Heritage-listed walled core while expanding rapidly as a commercial and IT hub, balancing heritage tourism with modern traffic and construction.
Best Time to Visit
Full Jaipur guide →Best months
November to February: cool (7–25°C), bright skies, all major attractions open, moderate humidity; perfect for sightseeing.
Peak / festival surge
July to August: the monsoon season, with heavy downpours, humidity over 70%, and temperatures around 26–34°C. Hotel prices drop 20–30% as many tourists avoid the rain. No single festival drives peak now; the quieter season is due to weather.
Budget shoulder season
March and October: still warm (20–35°C), far fewer tourists than winter, and hotel rates 15–25% lower than December–January without the monsoon’s unpredictability.
Weather & packing
In July, Jaipur gets sudden, intense rainstorms that can flood streets for an hour. Pack a lightweight waterproof jacket and quick-dry shoes, plus a power bank because electricity cuts sometimes follow heavy rain.
Live City Briefing — Jaipur
- The Jaipur Metro’s Pink Line between Badi Chaupar and Transport Nagar is running extended hours until 10pm on weekdays, making it easier to reach the walled city from Bani Park without traffic.
- Amer Fort’s light-and-sound show has changed its evening schedule; the English-language show now starts at 7.30pm (check on arrival for seasonal adjustments).
- Several main roads near the hotel, including MI Road, have ongoing construction for new flyover ramps, so allow 15–20 extra minutes for rickshaw trips to the airport or railway station.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Sunday Hotel, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 3rd or 4th floor facing the interior courtyard. These floors are high enough to reduce street noise from Jaipur’s busy roads, and the courtyard aspect keeps you away from the front street.
Rooms to avoid
Steer clear of ground-floor rooms near the reception or dining area—high foot traffic and early breakfast noise. Also avoid rooms at the back near the service entrance or generator, where staff noise and equipment hum can disturb sleep.
Best views
Opt for a north-facing interior courtyard room on floors 3–4; you’ll get a glimpse of the palace district skyline over the rooftops. Front-facing rooms overlook the chaotic street—less desirable.
Quietest floors
3rd and 4th floors are the quietest, as they are above public areas and far from street level.
🔊 Noise notes
Sunday Hotel sits on a main city road near a busy intersection; auto-rickshaws and horns start around 6 am. The lift is old and noisy on the 2nd floor. There’s also a small rooftop bar that plays music until 10 pm—ask for a room away from that side.
Insider tips
1) The hotel has limited parking—street parking fills by 8 pm; arrive by 6 pm to secure a space or use the valet. 2) Ask for a room with a working fan; the A/C can be weak in summer, and the ceiling fan helps keep the room comfortable without noise.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Top Attractions in Jaipur
💡 Enter from the Chand Pol (main gate) and walk straight — the free area includes the museum's outer halls. Avoid guides offering to show 'hidden' parts for a fee.
💡 Go early morning (6–8 AM) when it's cool and busy with joggers and yoga groups. Carry water — shops inside are overpriced.
💡 Visit on a weekday evening — the gardens are less crowded and the building is lit up after dark. The camel rides outside are cheap (20 rupees) and popular with kids.
💡 Visit at sunset for the best light and fewer touts. Keep your camera ready — the water reflection is striking.
💡 Go across the road to the wind café on the top floor of the building opposite for a rooftop view without paying entry.
