I found this place quite royal, it more like a heritage hotel in the sands. Pokaran is a small town while on your way to Jaisalmer and this is a good place to take a night halt. I stayed there for 3 nights and 4 days in one of their top rooms. The staff is very polite and courteous. Infact... More

This is quite a special place. It is the old fort of Pokaran, where people visit the museum and holy shrines on a day visit. But when night falls the fort is yours. It has beautifully restored rooms, our royal suite was very big and extraordinary well designed. The hotel is managed by a government organization and you can sense... More

We stayed one night in the two suites of this place, both of which are nicely renovated to host guests. After spending the day exposed to the chaos, this place seems a pleasant surprise for quieting down and away from outside world. The same for the food, served in this grand dinner room. The mutton dish is highly recommended. It... More

An ancient Indian Fort undergoing restoration but still beautifully ancient.. We got the impression that this is largely used by coach tours stopping for lunch but we were the only ones stayiing the night as it is too small for large numbers. So we had it to ourselves and it was wonderful. We had a suite at the top of... More

The more expensive rooms are an oriental dream. You can feel like a Maharaja for a night! You can walk the walls of the fort and there is a nice pool. The downside was the food. Dinner was overpriced and bland. Breakfast was pathetic. The bed was too hard and too small to our taste but it seems to be... More

This is a beautiful, partly restored redstone Fort with a range of very good accommodation which, we were told whilst there, is occupied spasmodically and then with only 3 or 4 rooms maximum. The majority of business comes from providing lunch for tour groups travelling to/from Jaisalmer. The hotel is undergoing refurbishment including a new dining room but this work... More
