The owners of this hotel understood what their (most non indian) guests want: perfect location, perfect rooftopterrace where you can sit and drink coffee all day, friendly staff and good camel safaris. We liked it here very much. We also booked a 2 night camelsafari which was good value. The best of this hotel is the terrace and the atmosphere.... more

The service is great, the location is great, 2 day 1 night camel safari they arranged was outstanding (1700 Rupees), but... the main thing I want from a hotel is a good nights sleep and in the two different rooms I stayed in 34 and 37 both 1400 Rupee rooms where just too noisy. One room the A/C was right... more

This hotel is excellent value, clean and the food in the rooftop restaraunt is superb. We were in the annex up the road and our room, one of the more expensive, had a magnificent view of the fort. Dev and his brothers have even purchased their own piece of desert and their own camels so their desert trips are free... more

We booked about 5 months in advance asking for two 1850 INR rooms which were the highest price they had, and were told they were confirmed.

This hotel is run by a few brothers & nephews and they've done a great job. It is well priced and looks great. The rooftop terrace gives a perfect view over the fort and serves nice food. They also organize good camel safaris and are very reliable. more

I can only echo the comments of the other reviewers in saying that we spent 3 wonderful nights here. The brothers and family put on a superb Deepawali party for us on the roof terrace with tthe loudest bangers and sublime food. Terrific view of the fort and just a short walk from the gates to the old city. Fantastic... more

The staff were like family- swaroop, mr dev, pappu- all took very good care of all our needs. Special thanks to Swaroop... more

On arriving to Jaisalmer we were tired, hungry and hadn't washed for a while! Hotel Shahi was just what we were looking for. The bedrooms are very clean and have lovely decorations. They have cheaper rooms on the ground floor. They provide you with a padlock for your room. They have aircon rooms with great big fans. The beds are... more

We just came back from a tour of Rajasthan which included Jaisalmer. We had looked into quite a few hotels for staying in Jaisalmer but at the end booked our stay in Shahi Palace as it was shown as "Our pick" in Lonely Planet. The hotel is located at a very convenient place just stones throw away from the fort... more
