Founder's stay at The Art Ghar

Reflecting on my first staycation at The Art Ghar, Jaipur (Literally home away from home).

I spent the last week staying at the space as a guest. I stayed in the room Sthir which is based on the premise of Spirituality. And my experience was magical. I tried hard to not wear my perfection boss hat though.

I found all the reasons why people love the place so much. Well, the room I love the yellow lamps, fragrance, the shower was a luxury with natural beauty essentials, the bed was comfortable & the shades of lilac in the room soothed me. There was so much sunlight & air.

The balcony is a cherry on the cake. I would wake up in the morning, draw the curtains & let all the light with fresh air come in. Mornings & evenings were spent in the balcony overlooking the garden, spotting squirrels, birds, dogs playing around, seeing the clouds float or lookings at the guests having a great time in the garden.I used the balcony to meditate, journal, make my gratitude/wins list.

I invited friends over for meals & chatted for long hours. What do I say about the food! Pictures say it all. Do look at my happy face with that burger. e The burger took me back to childhood, it was so comforting & delicious. Loved indulging in cheese for a change! . One of the nights I requested the kitchen to make dal chawal for me. The ambience of night indian classical ragas with a candle, some peace & yummy food was a delight. Fresh hot breakfasts like poha, sewaiya & paratha made the beginning of my day energetic.

And the team really provides the warmth one needs. From check in to check out, I felt so taken care of. (I kept asking them to not give me any special treatment 

& treat me like a regular guest. They said, they were the same with every guest which made my heart swell). Some points of improvement were shared and we are at it.

I had moments of wonder if this magical place is something real & if I have really built this. I gave myself a pat on the back & said a big YES! At the end of the day, don't all of us need comfort, warmth, cleanliness & love wherever we choose to stay! I recieved lots of it the past week.

Happy staying at The Art Ghar, Jaipur!
