‘Anopura,’ the Smallest Luxury Hotel in India by Philippe de Villegas


The tiny hotel is nestled in the shadow of the ancient Aravali mountains, an hour’s drive from Jaipur,Radjasthan. There are just two bedrooms within the main thatched house in addition to a romantic Rajasthani-tented bedroom in the garden, surrounded by swathes of lush free farmland.

This is a side to India that most tourists never have the opportunity to see; a glimpse of rural life that has not changed for many centuries. Expedia flights makes it easy and affordable to be able to see this one of a kind diamond in the rough. Anopura was created by Belgian- born Philippe de Villegas-ex-Honorary consul to Belgium in Marakech and a man to whom the beautiful things in life truly matter. As such, the rooms are all supplied with super king-size beds, superb mattresses and the finest locally sourced linens. Ceiling fans air conditioning as well as plenty of inspirational reading matter help guests to fell more at home.


Built as a traditional Rajasthani country home with a stunning step-well inspired plunge pool, Anopura artfully brings together the ‘necessities’ of the most demanding Western traveler within a landscape and agricultural environment virtually unchanged in a millennia.
