Detailed Reviews
Fancy decor ground floor restaurants offers good food in reasonable price. Room is well decor and comfortable, shower is a bit cold in winter as there is some ventilation without window and limited hot water too. It is a very good experience to stay in such old heritage hotel.
Owner is a Jain and she is very friendly and honest. Arrange a tuktuk driver for day tour and taxi to Udaipur in a reasonable price. Both driver quality is very good and just do the job right.
I am very happy and have a very satisfied stay in Jodhpur. The best experience in my India trip. Highly recommended.

Stayed here one night as our room was not available at a sister hotel.
The room was lovely with a big bed, fridge, A/C and big bathroom.
Unfortunately our room was at the front and it was noisy, dogs barking at 4am and general noise, which woke us up and in the morning no hot water so not a restful stay.
The food from the roof top restaurant was excellent and the view over the city and fort was amazing.
We wanted to stay at our original hotel which was more centrally located or else we could have stayed the whole trip here.
Staff were friendly and hiked our luggage up the steep steps as we certainly would not have managed.
It was definitely worth the stay as the building and rooms were beautiful.

We can't thank the staff enough, they helped by partner when he got really sick and needed to go to hospital. They were really concerned and really wanted to help us which was a great relief when you don't speak the language. When my partner went to the roof terrace to try and eat something one of staff members put a blanket round him which me and my mum were so touched by. The food was delicious and the room was perfect for us. The views and the area were great with lots of friendly people. We took a tour with someone recommended by the owner which was a great day and had a cookery class which was great fun.
- Only small recommendation would to have some complimentary water.
Thank you to the owner and all the staff who made our time in Jodhpur great even though my partner missed out. Can't thank you enough

I stayed at the Rani Mahal with my husband and our 2 boys. The havelli is 450 years old and it is has a lot of traditional Indian heritage character. It has been beautifully restored and we were very comfortable during our stay. The streets are too narrow for a car but for 100 rupees you can get a tuk tuk to drop you at the front door. We have struggled to find family rooms in India but there was one at the Rani Mahal. The owner Nisha went out of her way to make us all feel comfortable, especially the boys. The rooftop restaurant had amazing views, great food and awesome staff who were happy to chat with us. One of the highlights of our stay was a cooking class in the restaurant kitchen with Nisha and her chefs. They were so keen to share their knowledge and really engaged the boys and then we got to sit down and enjoy the feast that we had made. The location was great for walking up to the fort and my husband and sons really enjoyed the zip line experience - it was too high for me! We definitely will be back someday, we loved our time here!

+We did like the personal response and attention from some of the staff due to the fact that nothing in the "hotel" worked and we constantly needed their help or assistance.
-Electricity was coming and going. No hot showers and te shower itself was not working properly, just a sad stream of cold water. Internet was sketchy at best. Room was cold with no opportunity to make it warmer as the A/c was only for the warm months. You get 800 INR to 1200 INR room value in a place that charges 6000 INR. This place is an absolute rip off and should be avoided at any cost.

This was my first solo trip and I believe I couldn't have made a better choice than staying at Rani Mahal. It stood up to all expectations I had - the staff and manager were very helpful, kind, polite, and diligent. I had to attend the RIFF dawn concert at 5 am and they made sure I had a conveyance to the venue. The owner too was very receptive to suggestions. The decor was very unique, and the room was not only aesthetic but very huge, so was the adjoining bathroom. Their rooftop view is fantastic, with the panoramic view of the Mehrangarh Fort on one side and the blue city on the other. I would definitely choose to stay with them again, if I go visit Jodhpur in the future.

Owner and admin staff is so cordial and comforting, the housekeeping staff is always on the door step to help you when in hotel or out of hotel. The restaurant serves amazing food and overall the stay was pleasant. Not forgetting to mention the property is heritage and located within the vicinity of tourist places. Kuddos to the entire team of Rani Mahal!!

Friendly hotel, constantly under the watchful eye of the owner Nisha Jain and her daughter during our stay. The self-awarded label of "world's leading Boutique Hotel" is very exaggerated. The street is very busy day and night, so we declined room 205 on the street and chose 202, quiet but...without windows. No safes in the rooms, check the fridge and TV if you use them, ours didn't work. No wifi in room 202. Steep stairs, not all equipped with handrails. Mostly Indian clientele during our stay. The hotel is in the old town, no access by car, you have to take an auto-rickshaw (400 R from the airport by contacting the specific counter after the exit). The location is close to the northern entrance to the fort, the least frequented (Fateh Gate, 10 mins walk), but a little far from the clock tower area, 20 mins walk or 100 Rps by rickshaw. In the end, a charming historic residence, but a price that is clearly too high for the services (€118/night on Agoda).

We stayed in the roof top room which had a beautiful view of Jodhpur's old city and fort. The service and staff were excellent - they helped us get our clothes washed quickly and provided food to our room. The food was delicious.
There were 2 negatives, which the hotel staff helped mitigate:
- the wi fi in the room was unreliable, so the staff kindly offered to switch our rooms to one with better wifi. The wifi is reliable everywhere else in the building.
- there was a lot of noise at night from music on the rooftop, traffic, and barking dogs. The hotel staff got us earplugs when we asked, which helped.

Recently I stayed here for two nights with my family during the Christmas period. The hotel is situated in a crowded road but once you are inside the premises you will not feel it. The interiors are nicely decorated and it does really have the feeling of a boutique haveli. The rooms are nice and spacious the rooftop restaurant is really great and has wonderful views of the fort. I would particularly like to commend the owner who went out of her way to help us and provided suggestions on what to see in jodhpur. The only issue we had with the hotel was during the night there was a lot of noise from the street and dogs continuously barking which meant we couldn’t sleep properly. This is the only reason I am giving this hotel a four-star instead of five.
Please also keep in mind since the hotel is in the centre of town course cannot come there. While this is an inconvenience it didn’t bother us too much as we were able to take autos everywhere.
