As Jaipur once again prepares to take centre stage as a global hub for ideas, dialogue, and storytelling, The Leela Palace Jaipur has unveiled A Literary Sojourn, a thoughtfully curated hospitality experience designed for travellers seeking meaningful cultural immersion paired with refined palace living.

Set against the serene backdrop of the Aravalli hills, A Literary Sojourn offers guests an elevated way to experience the Jaipur Literature Festival (JLF), combining exclusive festival access with the calm, discretion, and elegance that define The Leela Palace Jaipur. The two-night residency, scheduled from 18th to 20th January 2026, includes luxurious accommodation and mornings that unfold over a global breakfast at The Aravalli Dining Room.

Guests are provided VIP passes to the Jaipur Literature Festival, along with priority assistance for registrations, scheduling, and shared transfers to and from the festival venues, ensuring a seamless and well-coordinated experience throughout their stay.

Beyond the public stages of JLF, the programme offers access to moments of rare intimacy. Guests are invited to the Writers’ Ball, the festival’s much-anticipated closing celebration, an evening that encourages reflection, conversation, and meaningful exchange, echoing the spirit of the literary gathering itself.

Evenings at the Palace are shaped by quieter indulgences. A signature cocktail at the Amber Terrace offers a pause beneath the Jaipur sky, while a specially curated dining experience within the Palace’s newly unveiled dining spaces highlights craftsmanship, flavour, and setting. A commemorative Jaipur Literature Festival keepsake serves as a lasting reminder of the journey.

Completing the experience, guests are invited to unwind with a 30-minute rejuvenating foot ritual at Aujasya, The Leela’s signature wellness sanctuary, offering a moment of restoration after days filled with conversations, discovery, and ideas.

Rooted in The Leela’s philosophy of Atithi Devo Bhava, A Literary Sojourn invites guests to slow down and engage deeply, presenting a distinctive way to experience one of the world’s most celebrated literary festivals through a lens of heritage, warmth, and contemporary luxury.
