A Royal Hunting Lodge Turned Heritage Stay
Polo Heritage Hotel in Jodhpur carries the architectural DNA of Rajputana royalty into every corner of its grounds. Described in independent features as a century-old royal hunting lodge turned luxury heritage hotel, the property holds onto arched colonnades, sandstone facades and a lush estate that anchors its identity today.
A Property Shaped by a Polo Dynasty
The hotel's story runs parallel to the story of Indian polo itself. According to the property's own history, the residence was gifted to Late Lt. Kishan Singh of Bhanwari as a wedding present by HH Maharaja Hanwant Singh of Jodhpur. The same lineage went on to shape international polo: Kishan Singh, an Arjuna Award winner, was part of the Indian team that lifted the world cup at Deauville, France in 1957, and amassed more than 400 trophies across a 28-year career. His sons Harshwardhan Singh and Digvijay Singh have between them claimed nine national cycle polo titles, and Harshwardhan represented India at the world cup play-off in Melbourne, Australia in 1997, before his son Yogeshwar Singh won the junior world cup in Argentina in 1998.
The Estate and Its Rooms
The hotel is family owned and managed, and it sits across a two-acre estate. Independent coverage notes that the property offers 25 rooms and suites set among well-maintained gardens. The heritage of Indian polo is highlighted throughout, with the history of the sport displayed in every room and in the hotel library, turning a stay into a walk through decades of equestrian achievement.
Facilities Beyond the Room
Independent sources note that facilities for polo riding and coaching are available at the Jodhpur polo ground, allowing guests to step beyond the hotel walls and into the sport that gave the property its name. Another source frames the experience as managed by Trance, blending regal charm with modern comfort on the heritage side.
Location on Residency Road
The hotel is mapped at 12th, Residency Road, Jodhpur – 342002, Rajasthan, India, and is described as very centrally located in the city.
