SUJÁN JAWAI has been ranked No. 43 in the global ranking of The World’s 50 Best Hotels 2024. Following a successful debut in 2023, the second edition of The World’s 50 Best Hotels was announced at a captivating awards ceremony in London and includes industry-defining hotels from across six continents worldwide.
The awards ceremony once again brought together the global travel and hospitality community to celebrate the world’s best hotels. Held at the historic Guildhall, the event showcased exceptional hotel experiences that will inspire consumers, travellers, and hoteliers globally.
SUJÁN JAWAI, Rajasthan, India’s pioneering wilderness camp, is defined by the magical intermingling of wildlife and rural village life that has coexisted peacefully side by side for centuries. While leopards are the predominant iconic species in the area, one may also see antelopes, hyenas, crocodiles, and several other smaller mammals. The area is also home to over 250 species of birds, from the migratory greater flamingos and sarus cranes to resident raptors and bee-eaters: Truly, a bird paradise. Encounters with wildlife are punctuated by engagements with local communities and a deep immersion into the local culture.
The camp comprises eight luxurious tented ‘Rock Suites,’ the Family ‘Felidae’ Suite, and The Royal ‘Panthera’ Suite complete with a private swimming pool and private butler.
Located in one of India’s most spellbinding landscapes SUJÁN JAWAI is home to one of the finest leopard viewing experiences in the world. It is also a camp that benefits local communities and plays a critical role in preserving indigenous wildlife and their natural habitats. With just 10 tents, SUJÁN JAWAI is exemplary in its dedication to conservation. Its Founders Jaisal and Anjali Singh have ensured that the local communities understand the camp’s objectives and benefit from its existence as it was designed to improve the quality of living, education and prosperity of the local communities, in addition to the hugely extensive rewilding project.
