Staying Near the Fort vs. the City Centre
Amber Fort sits about 11 km outside central Jaipur, so staying nearby trades city-centre convenience for a shorter morning transfer to the fort and a quieter evening base. For most travellers doing a single Jaipur trip, a central Pink City hotel with a 20-30 minute transfer to the fort is the more practical choice, since it keeps the rest of the city's sights closer too — a guide can time your pickup either way.
