I spent a month in India, and this was one of my favourite stays. The guest house is very clean and comfortable. It is not in the old town, but only a 15 minute walk away. It is very quiet at night, the roof top restaurant has a beautiful view of the fort. The food is also quite good. The... More

Our stay at Desert Moon was fantastic. The owner is very friendly and helpful and the staff are as well. The rooftop terrace has an amazing view of the fort. The rooms are clean with large bathrooms, ours had a TV as well. The staff also offer all sorts of information on the city, including organising a camel safari and... More

As a solo female traveller this guesthouse provided comfort, security and a warm and friendly respite from travelling during the height of tourist season (January 2012). Its location opposite Sunset Point is a visual splendour, as is sitting eating delicious simple fresh Indian or western food on its rooftop restaurant while watching the lights twinkle from the Jaisalmer Fort; picture...

The hotel is run by Lois, a kiwi, and her husband, from Jaisalmer. It was nice to sit on the roof terrace looking at the fort and to talk her whilst sipping chai. The food was good and everyone was helpful. We took the camel safari overnight from there too and really enjoyed it. She looked after our luggage for... More

I stayed at the Desert Moon for two nights in November, 2011. The staff was very communicative when I tried to make an advance reservation from Jodhpur, and they offered pick up and drop off at the train station. The hotel is super clean and very peaceful -- almost to the point of feeling lonely at times. However, a few... More

I was there a month ago, and spent couple of nights in Desert Moon Guest House. Though its a short walk away from the center, however I loved the peace and quite it offered. It's location actually is quite magnificent as it is located bang opposite a 1000 year old structure called Vyas Chhatri and the rooftop offers some awesome... More

We stayed here in last week of Dec'11. Had booked 3 deluxe rooms for 3 families travelling together. Very nice place, wonderfully managed by Lois & Chanesar - the Kiwi-Indian couple who own this place. Away from the crowded area of Jaisalmer, this is the place for those who would like to enjoy peace and serenity. Rooms are tastefully decorated... More

Do yourself a favor and do not stay here. The hotel manager forgot to give us back our passports because he was so flustered that his laundry had lost two of our most expensive high tech travel clothes. This was a big problem because we then got on a train to Delphi and were flying out of India. The owner's... More

We were met at the station by someone holding a sign, which was great. The rooms are good-spacious, nice bathrooms. We were given chai on arrival. There was some pressure to book the safari through them but I think that's fair enough as this is one of the main reasons to be in Jaisalmer. The safari was well run, though... More
