Pros:

Excellent location and comfortable rooms, with charming local handicraft decor throughout. The rooftop terrace was a great hangout spot with an epic view of the fort. Helpful staff, with a shoutout to Khetaram who provided our delicious meals and was good company (especially for cricket chat!). We were very happy with our stay.

Pros:

The owners/staff at Shai Palace took care of everything we needed - from lifts to and from the train station to arranging the desert safari (which was a great experience). The food on the roof terrace was excellent, and they were happy to serve us when we arrived late. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. Overall, we would thoroughly recommend it.

Great Services Hotel Shahi Palace ❤️👍
Pros:

Jaisalmer की यात्रा को यादगार बनाने के लिए Hotel Shahi Palace का बहुत-बहुत धन्यवाद। यहाँ का स्टाफ बेहद विनम्र और मददगार है। कमरे साफ-सुथरे, आरामदायक और अच्छी तरह से मेंटेन हैं। होटल का माहौल शांत और पारिवारिक है। रूफटॉप से किले का नज़ारा शानदार दिखता है और खाना भी बहुत स्वादिष्ट था। सेवा हर समय बेहतरीन रही और हमें किसी भी तरह की असुविधा नहीं हुई। अगर Jaisalmer में अच्छी लोकेशन, बेहतरीन सर्विस और आरामदायक ठहराव चाहिए, तो मैं इस होटल की पूरी सिफारिश करता हूँ। अगली बार Jaisalmer आऊँगा तो यहीं रुकना पसंद करूँगा।

Cons:

ऐसा कुछ भी नहीं मिला

Pros:

Such an incredible place. Location was perfect, not inside the (much too busy) fort but everything was accessible by foot which was really nice. The room was really authentic, and everything was very clean. The staff was just amazing, they came to pick us up at the train station, offered us a ride to see Bada Bagh and even invited us for dinner !! They also organised a camel safari tour which was one of the best experience I’ve had, so beautiful, peaceful and untouched desert. They took everything in charge. An incredible stay, would really recommend !!!

In der letzten Nacht wurde ich von irgendwelchen Viechern arg zerstochen
