Villa Kololo

With an excellent location in upmarket Kololo, this Italian-owned designer hotel has smart, well-priced rooms that balance tasteful North African decor and Rajasthani motifs with all the mod cons. The suite is a standout with spa bath, zebra-skin rugs and antique furniture. Currently expanding to double its capacity, you might find some growing pains. Downstairs is the popular Mediterraneo restaurant.
