Diggi Palace – A Heritage Hotel

Diggi Palace is one of Jaipur's most genuinely pet-welcoming heritage hotels — a 19th-century palace set across seven hectares of landscaped gardens in the C Scheme neighbourhood, about 3 km from Jaipur Junction railway station. Well-behaved, vaccinated small pets are welcome to stay, and the grounds offer something you rarely find in a city hotel: real space to walk your dog morning and evening without leaving the property. Freely roaming peacocks, squirrels, and birds are a fixture on the grounds, so if your dog has a strong prey drive, keep that in mind before booking.

The Setting — Seven Hectares in the Heart of Jaipur

This is not a concrete city hotel with a token "pets allowed" tag. Diggi Palace sits on seven hectares of palace gardens in central Jaipur, which means your dog gets actual green space — shaded walking paths, open lawns, and the kind of ambient quiet that's hard to find in a Rajasthani city. Multiple reviewers have specifically noted the open spaces as ideal for morning and evening walks, with peacocks wandering freely across the grounds alongside squirrels and other birds. The heritage architecture — think marble columns, carved archways, and rooms with a distinctly old-world warmth — gives the whole stay a character that generic chain hotels simply cannot replicate. The property is a 15-minute walk from the Albert Hall Museum, making it a strong base for exploring the old city with your dog in tow.

Rooms, Dining, and What's On Property

Rooms and suites are described as airy and warmly decorated, with a vintage heritage feel, flat-screen TVs, sitting areas, garden views, and tea and coffeemaking facilities. Guests consistently rate the comfort level highly. The on-site restaurant features marble columns and a terrace — reviewers on Trip.com describe the food as reasonably priced with lovely quality. There's also a bar and a bright lounge. The outdoor pool is available for guests, though there is no confirmed information that pets are allowed in the pool — assume it's for human guests only unless you confirm directly with the hotel. Complimentary breakfast and free Wi-Fi are included. Free parking is available on the property, which matters if you're arriving on a road trip with your dog.

Pet Policy — What You Need to Know Before Booking

Diggi Palace has always described its grounds as shared between guests and animals — peacocks wander freely across the property, and your four-legged companion is framed as equally at home here. That said, the policy does come with specific conditions: a pet charge of ₹1,500 plus 18% GST applies, pets must be vaccinated (carry documentation), and the policy is currently applicable to small pets. Breed and size eligibility is worth confirming at the time of reservation — call ahead on 093521 45034 or check via their website at hoteldiggipalace.com. The hotel has a track record of accommodating special requests per Google reviews, so don't hesitate to ask.

Why Pet Parents Choose Diggi Palace

For pet parents visiting Jaipur, the options for a pet friendly stay in a genuinely characterful property are limited. Diggi Palace fills that gap. It's a heritage hotel that actively frames pets as part of the guest experience — not a reluctant allowance buried in fine print. The combination of open gardens, walking space, and a royal heritage setting makes this one of the more memorable places to travel with your dog in Rajasthan. Guests travelling from Delhi NCR or Mumbai on a Rajasthan road trip will find it a logical anchor point in Jaipur — central, well-connected, and with free parking for those arriving by car. The free breakfast, restaurant, and full suite of amenities (airport shuttle, fitness centre, business centre, room service) mean you won't need to leave the property for much beyond your dog walks and sightseeing.
