Our bus arrived in the early morning in Jaisalmer. Still in the bus we were intercepted by Chandra who turned out to be the owner of the roop mahal. And he urged us not to take a hostel inside the ford. So we drove with him to the roop. Which proved to be the right decission. The rooms are clean... More

We booked to stay five days here but left after 1 hour. The whole place was in need of a good clean and was depressing. There were birds nesting in the reception area and in the lounge. If they made an effort to maintain reasonable standards it might have been OK but, as it was, we could'nt face 5 days... More

Our train arrived early, and our hotel sent Chandra (owner of Roop Mahal) to pick us up for free. On the ride, Chandra told us about his camel safari, and we were immediately interested. He is a very amicable guy. He took us to his hotel before dropping us off at our own hotel to give us more info and... More

The owner, a very nice man, offered us free pickup from the station. The Hotel is not too far of the Fort entrance. Since it is outside the Fort itself, the water system is not endangering the Fort site. They have nice affordable clean rooms and a convenient rooftop. Food is ok but nothing special. In front of the hotel... More

We are long term travelers with basic needs - general level of cleanliness and enough space for our (minimal) stuff. This hotel is simple but completely clean and even the 400R room had plenty of space (even a small table and chair!) for us. The 400R rooms on the first floor don't have a window (500R room does) but that... More

We had an awesome stay! Originally unaware of this hotel we stayed in a couple of others that left a lot to be desired to say the least. The staff was wonderful, the beds comfortable and clean and most of all the kitchen was exceptionally clean (not common in most hotels, as there are no standard requirements). The rates for... More

I chanced upon Roop Mahal through agoda while looking for a hotel in Jaisalmer. It had good reviews so I thought I'd give it a chance. So glad I did. The staff is great- they may seem a little standoffish at times, but I think that's due to a lack of English on their part and didn't affect their helpfulness... More

We were offered a free taxi to check it out with bold claims and a brochure which all seemed too good to be true. Fantastic rates, best shower I had in India and great service. We did our camel trek through the hotel too which lived up to every promise made. Fantastic!

We chose Roop mahal's camel safari (Dream the desert Agency) for a 2 days 1 night. This camel safari is adviced in The "Routard" Guide book because they bring you far from other touristic areas. Indeed, we went 60 km by jeep from Jaisalmer, far in the desert. Everything is include (1700 rps per person for 2 days), it is... More
