General's Retreat is a home away from home. The warmth of the owners and staff is too good. No 5 star trappings but a great place to relax and unwind. We spent 2 days recently and will surely come back again. Very close to the walled city and had tough time holding the girls back from shopping non stop. Special... More

Our daughter, who had stayed there earlier on the recommendation of an Indian friend, was keen that we stay at Generals Retreat on our visit to Jaipur. It reminded her of our old family home in Lahore. We found the place comfortable, and the owners extremely helpful, warm and welcoming- an extended family. Centrally located,the prices are reasonable,the meals well-planned... More

I spent two nights at The General's Retreat in February. Though perhaps ten minutes by car from the walled city of Jaipur, it is a very pleasant place to stay and worth finding. My room was large, clean, and comfortable, as was the bathroom. The staff were warm and welcoming. When my laptop could not pick up a wireless connection... More

Unfortunately on arrival at the train station we were not picked up as arranged despite confirmation by email. We ended up having to come by taxi and a room was not available. They said they'd lost all their emails recently so were not expecting us? They did however manage to accommodate us later in the day but we had to... More

The folks here certainly go out of their way to make sure you have everything you need, and provide after-care too! They mailed my spectacles back to me after I left them behind in the room, which was lot more than I expected. The room I stayed in was large and elegantly furnished, and someone would come in to turn... More

I had the chance to stay at this amazing little hotel in Jaipur recently. It is run by Indu Bist and his daughter Ketaki who are the descendants of the general who built this hotel in the countryside outside Jaipur. Now Jaipur has encircled the hotel but this has not diminished the warm family feel or the sense of being... More
