Hotels Own Introduction
A Palace Reimagined
Step into a world of timeless luxury at Ran Baas, The Palace—an 18th-century royal guesthouse now reborn as Punjab’s first luxury palace hotel. Once reserved for the Maharaja’s most honored guests, this restored palace invites you to experience the grandeur of a bygone era infused with the sophistication of modern hospitality.
Where Heritage Meets Contemporary Design
The 35-suite palace blends architectural influences from the late Mughal, Rajput, Sikh, and Colonial periods, carefully preserved and reinterpreted through THE Park Hotels’ design-forward lens. Across three stately floors, the palace evokes the cultural richness of Punjab while offering a fresh, immersive experience rooted in comfort and elegance.
Experiences Beyond the Ordinary
At the heart of Ran Baas are thoughtfully curated amenities designed to elevate every moment—an all-day dining restaurant, stylish bar, serene spa, swimming pool, and gym. Expansive indoor and outdoor event venues bring to life royal celebrations, while “Anything But Ordinary” touches define each guest experience.
A Setting for Celebration and Discovery
With dedicated baithak and exhibition spaces, Ran Baas is an unforgettable backdrop for weddings, cultural gatherings, and bespoke events. Ideally located near Patiala’s key landmarks and excursions, the hotel is both a sanctuary of indulgence and a gateway to the region’s vibrant heritage.
