We stayed for 8 nights and really enjoyed our stay. The lovely rooms are all different and full of character and charm. Facilities were good - wifi, and hot water work etc.! Stunning views from the roof top area where food is served and you can hang out and get tea etc. The willing and friendly staff cook simple but enjoyable food and we ate there most nights. It's in the heart of the bustling old city, 10-15 minutes walk from the clock tower. Note the stairs are very steep (and best views are high up). The Ganesh Room is near the top and has the best views - can see the Fort and Temple from bed! and also had it's own tiny balcony with views over the city.
Much recommend Arvi as a guide. We did a walking tour with him (organised by Haveli owner Mr Joshi). We liked it so much we did a second one! We saw and learnt so many interesting things - a great orientation and introduction. Arvi has good english and is happy to answer questions and discuss things. We learnt about interesting local people and events as well as seeing beautiful buildings etc.. We also went with Arvi to Osian (temples), 45 mins drive away, and he showed us aspects of rural life on the way. He responded really well to our interests and questions. He was our best find in Jodhpur!!!
Although the Juna Mahal describes itself as a homestay, it is more like a guesthouse with limited interaction with the family. The family are on the ground floor and it was sometimes hard to contact Joshi or Savita. One improvement would be knowing definite times when they would be available. That would save a number of wasted trips up and down the steep stairs! Due to proximity of temples and mosques you can hear a lot chanting, signing and calls to prayer, which is all part of the charm.
There is much more to Jodhpur than is mentioned in the guidebooks (aside from the main attractions), for instance there are stepwells. We happily spent 8 days there. By the way, advice for the warm hearted, we found out that if you find an injured dog/puppy you can take it to animal hospital in a tuk tuk and it will be treated for free.

We arrived very late after a 6 hours chaotic bus ride from Udaipur and in a small dead end street we discovered the most precious and inviting place. The owners were welcoming and friendly, treat you like you were family to them! We got a lovely room, and even though the bathroom and toilet was not ensuite, but for our exclusive use on same floor, we fell in love from the scratch ! It was late and the cook prepared a delicious meal for us.... Honestly, no need to search for a restaurant elsewhere in town, the Juan mahal restaurant is just perfectly located has a terrific view on the fort, and is the only one we saw with a nice and tastefull decoration, comfortable too! The second day we moved to another room, could have stayed in the firs one, but we were curious, and we did not regret, the room was tastefully decorated and comfortable too! I can only recommend this place, it is a hideaway like no other when you visit Jodhpur! Ask the owner for good shopping tips, has a lot, and I even bought real jodhpurs for small money on his recommendation! We will never forget this wonderful place!

I stayed at Juna Mahal in mid february for two nights and had a great experience. I had booked the Lord Krishna room, but was given a higher category room for the first night because the occupants had not checked out (they didn't charge me anything additional, as I had expected). Both rooms were very clean, comfortable and charming, and had the feel of staying in someones personally and tastefully maintained family home. Showers had hot water, clean towels and toiletries provided. The owner couple speak to you like close relatives, and treat you with warmth and care. The rooftop restaurant is the main highlight of the property (apart from its central location and great pricing). You're right under the Mehrangarh fort on one side, and the entire old walled city of Jodhpur is spread around you. In the other direction one has an undisturbed view of Umaid Bhavan. Food is made in the family kitchen and was the best thing I could have had for my sensitive stomach. Spice levels are tailored to specification, and the food is of premium quality. Would recommend having dinner here and here only. Beer available, and nominally priced. Best part of the property and its location is that I didn't have to use auto-rickshaws or any vehicular transportation for any sightseeing or exploring of the Old city and the fort. Only Umaid Bhavan requires a short auto ride. If I return to Jodhpur, I would definitely stay again at Juna Mahal. Thank you Mr and Mrs. Joshi! - Umang

I found this hotel purely by accident and could not be happier with my stay. The hotel is located in the heart of the old town and was great for walking to the fort and the local markets. My room was very clean and had great character with a nice balcony. All the the food I had was delicious and well priced. The staff were very kind and really made me feel at home. I really feel that staying here helped me absorb the the spirit of Jodhpur.

Hi,
As fare as I can remember, I had a king size bed, room about 18 qm, my room at the 1. floor had an outside bathroom, just for this room, 3meters out of the room. Actually no problem. Everything was clean and in a good shape. This house is unique.
Breakfast was incl. and has been served at the rooftop.
greetings from Germany
Bernd
