Apply the same Network Security Group that filters RDP on all Subnets containing the VMs.

If you need to white list additional IP addresses you edit things in one place, the NSG.

Edit: MFA is also nice to have. I would actually lean towards that as an answer to your question. While the attack surface is larger, the management is easier, things are much more flexible for the end user and the attack difficulty is high to very high.
