My fiance and I stayed in this wonderful hotel for two nights. We had the room on the ground floor, which was an excellent size, beautifully furnished and well-kept. The hotel staff are friendly, knowledgeable and professional. We were provided delicious breakfasts (option of continental or Indian) and endless chai and bottled water. The water in particular was very helpful, noting that most hotels will only provide one small bottle per visitor per day.

The standard of the hotel was excellent, with fantastic views both from the room and of course the rooftop terrace where our breakfast was served.

Definitely value for money, and we would happily return.

We booked for two nights and ended up staying for three we enjoyed ourselves so much.

Killa bhawan offers a complementary breakfast which was really delicious. The rooftop is great to have drinks on in the evening and your breakfast in the morning. The staff are incredibly attentive and helpful and the rooms and the hotel are beautifully furnished. The shared bathroom is not an issue, it is only two rooms that share a bathroom and you are on your own floor, the hotel also provides beautiful robes.

The only thing I could fault this hotel on is its water pressure and heat which was sporadic when we were there.

We have never stayed in accommodation actually built into the walls of a fort before and looked down 100 metres to the city below from an ornate balcony festooned with rich cushions. Jaisalmer is a very atmospheric city within the walls of the fort and palace. Killa Bhawan adds considerably to that atmosphere and just helps you recharge your batteries in double-quick time.

Furnishings and artefacts in the room are in keeping with the feel of the location and everything is tasteful. Even the dressing gowns provided for guest use are out-of-the-ordinary. The views from many of the rooms are terrific, especially if you have one facing out from the wall, as we did. Breakfast and service were excellent, with the best bananas tasted anywhere in Rajasthan! Attention to detail is excellent too, and you can also obtain a helpful city map to guard against getting lost. The only real problem was the water pressure which seriously affected the shower. However, despite that shortcoming, this was an excellent experience for our one nights's stay. I wish we had stayed longer.
