Need advice on hotel booking in jaipur

[Random123]

Hi all, need help in choosing which hotel for 20 Aug - 23 Aug, 2023 trip to Jaipur for 3 adults.
I understand this is short notice but it is sudden plan with parents and just thought of getting your inputs.

Any suggestion on Marriott ? Have 44K points on amex but I think transfer time is 3-4 days and also looks like 50p conversion value per point.
Don't think there is any availability on Taj for the dates.
Also first time booking with either points or at luxury hotels!

Also appreciate if I can request any inputs on places from anyone with prior experience in visiting Jaipur

In case going with direct booking, which is the best option ? Have sc ultimate, amex gold, sbi cashback primarily which I think are high rewarding
Thanks in advance

Thanks for the reply. Sure will reach out but was also thinking whether to use points since saw the conversion rate is better in other marriott like westin himalayas which can plan separate trip

Thanks any idea if sbi cashback works on marriott bonvoy app ? I have just installed it and don't have any membership though.
Because it is cheaper on mmt but read might need to pay extra for third person via the app and hence choosing direct app booking
