UMAID BHAWAN PALACE, Jodhpur, India
Why It’s Cool: In a massive, 347-room palace overlooking the Blue City of Jodhpur in the Indian state of Rajasthan, this serene, temperature-controlled swimming basin takes advantage of natural candlelight—with rose petals sometimes strewn on the surface. The hotel is run by the Taj Hotels Resorts and Palaces, which shares the property with the palace’s owner, the Maharaja of Jodhpur—who has been known to swim laps with the guests from time to time.
