Heritage hotel chains in India are those hotels, which at some point of time in history were fortresses, and castles that were home to the rulers of Rajasthan. For centuries, the ancient fortress, the defensive castle, or the composite haveli-was the abode of royalty and the nobility where hospitality was an integral part of life in Rajasthan. These Heritage hotels are a special treat to the  visitors, as those who run or maintain these hotels have made sure that the traditional work, carvings, décor and the style of hospitality remain as it were in the olden times in the state of Rajasthan, India.
As already mentioned, these heritage hotels were home to the Rajputs and Rajasthani rulers; therefore it is but natural that the architecture and décor of these palaces are lavish. Some of these heritage homes are reflective of Rajputana and Mughal architecture. The architecture of these royal buildings was such that there were separate viewing galleries for the ladies of these households. There were separate wings constructed for the men, women, guests and the servants of the household.
Over the centuries it has been the custom of these heritage homes in Rajasthan, India, to provide hospitality to every person who visited these homes, now that most of these homes have been transformed into hotels, the owners endeavor to maintain the traditional concept of extending a warm and hospitable atmosphere to each and every individual who visits these hotels in Rajasthan.
After the year 1947, that is in the post independence period the Government of India abolished royal titles and the concept of feudal lords and feudal ownership of lands in Rajasthan. The Government of India withdrew the Privy Purse and special privileges to the royalty. Consequently, members of most of the royal families found it extremely difficult to maintain these huge buildings in Rajasthan. These large mansions lay almost abandoned or unattended till a few enterprising people realized that perhaps the only way to maintain these historic homes was their appropriate reuse. And the large palaces of the Maharajas set precedent by becoming five star luxury hotels. Later some of the heritage homes followed suit and are now functioning as luxury heritage hotels all over Rajasthan.
Welcom Heritage Hotels 
Spread across erstwhile princely India are a large number of palaces and estates that were once home to families that ruled over India. These bastions of history still reverberate with memories. Memories of coronations, durbars, polo balls, spectacles, extravaganzas, pageants... Welcom Heritage represents some of the best traditions of heritage hospitality in India. After independence in 1947, some of the owners of such glorious properties resolved to preserve the heritage of the past by converting their properties into 'heritage hotels'. And finally, these once-private royal homes opened their doors to share their gracious lifestyles with the world. In doing so, they have ensured that the properties continue to be maintained in a befitting manner. A slice of history that would otherwise have been irretrievably lost continues to survive. With one major difference: You too can now be a part of it!
