Fabulous! Charming! Magical!

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 15 Nov 2018via mobile

We spent three wonderful days at Killa Bhawan. It is a charming accommodation with tasteful decoration and exceptional views of Jaisalmer Fort and the city, and with the charm of living in one of the towers of the fort wall! Manich, his family and the staff were very kind, friendly and helpful and tried at all times to make our stay unforgettable. Although Killa Bhawan has not restaurant, breakfasts on the terrace were great and we tasted delicious Indian meals at the KB CAFE, a few minutes walk from the hotel and managed by the brother and family of Manich. We hope to return to Killa Bhawan in the future and highly recommend this magical place to those visiting Jaisalmer.

A delight from the first moment. Beautifully furnished rooms and superb views of both the the fort and the city...from secluded sitting areas... that seemed to sum up what the desert cities were all about. Great hospitality including being involved in diwali puja in a way that seemed real.

This is a small hotel inside the fort of Jaisalmer. Inside tiny rooms and stairs lead to,open terraces with bedrooms. The rooms are furnished exquisitely with traditional colours and materials and antique furniture. Everything is very comfortable. Outside tables and chairs are a comfortable place to sit and enjoy the view of the fort inner gate and the town below.
Breakfast was simple, eggs cooked to order, toast and jam and fruit juice, served on the terrace.
A perfect place to explore the labyrinthine town alleys.

I didn't actually stay here, but visited Killa Bhawan during my time in Jaisalmer and would definitely book to stay here next time I return. The views are stunning, the rooms beautiful and the staff are delightful and friendly. Would definitely recommend.

The view from the terrace is just awesome, I really can’t put it into words. The owner and staff were so helpful, they also provide free chilled water at the public areas, you could take it any time. Breakfast was really basic, because it’s inside the Fort, the space is quite limited but they served as good as they could, eggs were alway well cook, with chai, coffee or fresh juice. I really enjoyed my time there. Thank you guys.

Paid for the best room in Killa Bhawan which had our own balcony and bathroom because i wanted to really enjoy our stay in Jaisalmer and be comfortable. The balcony view was worth it. The staff here are super friendly and go out of their way to make you feel at home. Breakfasts were clean and hygienic and had a great variety. We really didnt want to leave this place. If you want the best room in Jaisalmer, just pay it - youll only probably be here once so make the most of it.
