Accor and Sukhani Ventures have announced plans to bring two of Accor’s luxury brands, Raffles Hotels & Resorts and Sofitel Legend, to the Indian state of Rajasthan. Raffles Ranthambore will be a 63-villa ultra-luxury resort in the Ranthambore National Park, appealing to families, adventurers and wildlife enthusiasts alike. Additionally, 80 miles away, Sofitel Legend Sukh Bagh Jaipur will offer 301 keys in the Kukas Amer region of Jaipur, ideal for events, weddings and corporate retreats. Raffles Ranthambore is expected to open by mid-2027, while Sofitel Legend Sukh Bagh Jaipur is slated to debut in late 2028.
Raffles Ranthambore will offer the brand’s signature butler service, Long Bar and more. Among the resort’s 63 villas, guests will have the choice of 15 luxury tented experiences, along with family suites and a spacious honeymoon suite.
Sofitel Legend Sukh Bagh Jaipur will welcome guests and locals to the city’s Kukas Amer region, an area popular for business events, weddings, celebrations and corporate meetings. With 21 acres of gardens, winding paths and pools, the resort will offer 260 guestrooms and 41 suites. The property will also offer just shy of 70,000 square feet of event space and lawns, which can be used for hosting multiple large-scale events.
Accor has more than 70 hotels operating in India across a diverse array of brands. Raffles Ranthambore will be the brand’s third destination in India, joining Raffles Udaipur and the newly opened Raffles Jaipur. Other recent Accor openings include Fairmont Mumbai, Pullman Chennai Anna Salai, Novotel New Delhi City Centre, Mercure Lucknow Gomti Nagar and ibis Mumbai BKC. A key opening for Accor in 2025 is Fairmont Udaipur, while further along the horizon, travelers can look forward to Sofitel Jaipur Jawahar Circle (2028) and Raffles and Fairmont Goa (2030).
