Killa Bhawan Lodge

Le personnel est attentionné et adorable. Le rooftop est top et la chambre confortable.

Rien.

Desde la ventana de la habitación se ve una de las havelis más importantes de Jaisalmer. La habitación está muy bien ambientada. Estábamos solos en el hotel y nos dejaron pedir un desayuno a la carta. El personal fue super atento. Una sorpresa muy agradable.

Hacía un poco de calor en la habitación.

Always a pleasure to stay in this one of my favourite places in Jaisalmer, the owners are both very kind and helpful.

Все очень понравилось, было чисто, персонал был очень любезен, помогали с любым вопросом, ресторан на крыше как и сам номер был замечателен, рекомендую

Sehr freundlicher Empfang. Das Zimmer war schön eingerichtet und das Bett bequem. Alles war sehr sauber. Die Angestellten waren alle nett und immer sehr hilfsbereit. Auch die Walking Tour, die ich hier gebucht habe mit Koushal war super. Die Lage ist auch super. Auch abends habe ich mich alleine in der Umgebung sicher gefühlt. Alles sehr zu empfehlen. Danke an alle für den schönen Aufenthalt.

L’emplacement, près du Fort et du musée. Personnel très sympathique et attentif à nos besoins. Merci à Viky son équipe.

We had a wonderful stay at Killa Bhawan Lodge and to be honest, wish we’d had the time to stay longer. The hotel is very centrally located, pretty much everything is in walking distance. The room was very comfortable and really beautifully decorated and had air con, complimentary water and toiletries and even robes, plus an incredible view over the Haveli. The rooftop is beautiful and comfortable, with shades and fans to cool down and a great view of the Haveli and square below - great for people watching. Breakfast is plentiful and the South Indian espresso was very nice! We also ate two meals at the restaurant and both times the thali was delicious and varied. The biggest highlight though was the staff. Vicky-ji is such a gentle, kind and humble man who was always helpful and chatty. He helped us arrange transport and also a laundry service. We’d been scammed at our previous hotel on our Rajasthan trip and were feeling a little defeated but Jaisalmer and mostly Vicky-ji, his wonderful team and beautiful hotel gave us the much needed boost we needed. Would 10000% recommend to anyone and hope to visit again one day! Thank you Vicky-ji and team

The square can be a bit noisy in the daytime but at night it was not a problem for us to sleep.

Really beautiful room a fantastic location overlooking the Haveli

We did have issues with obtaining hot water although two buckets of hot water were delivered daily as there was no water pressure. This was dealt with, but that wasn’t until the very end of our stay after 10 days. It was a minor inconvenience that did not affect our stay too seriously.

Everything! Vicky and his staff are very attentive and helpful. The stay was perfect, the location is the best, the restaurant amazing. Thank you so much and hope to come back in a near future!

All perfect!

パトワキハベリのすぐ近くで、どこでも歩いて行けます。 私の部屋からは、パトワキハベリが見えました。特に夜のライトアップされたハベリは、とても美しくて、ロマンチックでした。 建物はジャャイサルメール特有の砂岩で建てられていて、その淡い黄色と、所々明るい水色があしらわれていて明るい雰囲気です。 美しい調度品や、パッチワークの品々がたくさん飾られていて、それらをひとつひとつ見るのも楽しいです。 屋上は、レストランになっていて、お料理も、飲み物も、とても美味しいです。屋上からはお城も見えて、景色がとても良いです。 ここで、のんびり過ごすのも、快適でした。オーナーのビッキーさんもスタッフの方々も、とてもフレンドリーで、穏やかで ジャイサルメールの旅を、素晴らしいものにしてくれました。

Beautiful room. Exceptionally clean.

Hot water was an issue. But hot water was provided in a bucket. Not ideal but it worked. Water was sorted but at end of stay.

Everything was wonderful. The owner and staff made us feel very welcome and ensured we had an amazing stay. Free tea and coffee during the stay and breakfast was very good.

Great location, great hotel excellent restaurant and host. We thoroughly enjoyed everything about our stay here.

Nothing to dislike

Hotel had een toplocatie, direct naast een van de Haveli's en met prachtig uitzicht op het fort. Het restaurant dat op het dakterras zit is geweldig en de eigenaar Vicky is erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam.

Douche was niet geweldig (af en toe koud en lage waterdruk) en het hotel was soms wat gehorig. Alhoewel dat een beetje hoort bij de centrale ligging.

Vicky, the manager, went above and beyond to help me in all my needs. The room had a lot of character and great views on the haveli. I recomnend it 100%.

Nothing. Everything was great.

L'emplacement, jolie décoration. Belle vue sur le rooftop. Equipe sympathique

Le petit déjeuner pourrait être amelioré. Nous y étions en janvier, le marin et le soir, il faisait autour de 8°. Un petit chauffage d'appoint aurait été bienvenu. La rue est très bruyante du fait de son bel emplacement mais se calme de 22h a 7h.

La ubicación muy buena, la cama cómoda y limpio. Tuve la mala suerte de estar enferma durante su estancia y me quedé 24h en la habitación, suerte que era grande y con vistazas.

Salía muy poca agua y poco caliente.

We stayed at KB Lodge for 4 nights during a 3 week trip to India. Really nice hotel - great location outside the fort, opposite a havelli, great roof top restaurant (busy all day with people not staying in the hotel). Vicky, the owner / manager was really helpful.

Nuestra estadía ha sido excelente, nos sentimos muy a gusto en la habitación y en el hospedaje en si, que es muy lindo y agradable. El desayuno (incluído) es muy bueno, en la terraza. Donde funciona el restaurante que es muy bueno también. Nosotros hicimos el "safari" del desierto, dormimos una noche a cielo abierto, antes disfrutamos de una cena, música y baile geniales! Fue justo el festejo de año nuevo.De volver a Jaisalmer sin dudas volveríamos!!!

Staff gentilissimo e molto disponibile. La stanza è pulita, e la struttura ha un buon ristorantino con terrazza che affaccia sul forte e su Patwa Haveli.

C'era un leggero cattivo odore dal wc.

We also could visit the other location of the killa bhawan (inside the fort). This was a very cute and wholesome experience. The host helped us a lot with planning and sightseeing.

Our windows were facing the square where a lot of stuff is happening and the noise level is quite high.

フォートまで徒歩で3分の距離。ホテル内の装飾のすべてがセンスが良い。室内は清潔で、シャワーのお湯も出る。屋上のレストランからの眺めは最高。スタッフもとても親切に接してくれます。観光地の中心のため、夜間の騒音は気になりますが、私にとっては、インド旅行の中でパーフェクトの宿でした。またインドに来たときも利用したいです。

Les fantàstiques vistes del restaurant, el tracte de tot el personal, i tot l'ajut per fer l'estada perfecte. Una abraçada, ens heu fet molt felicos. Sens dubte el millor hotel de Jaisalmer.

Res.

Great location and amazing reception & hosting. Felt like at home. Nice rooftop with a view to the fort

The hot water while showering wasnt that hot. Apart from that Everything was fine

Beautiful hotel with lovely rooms and the restaurant has best view of the fort in Jaisalmer. The owner and staff were exceptional and provided great service. Vicky went out of his way to help us with an issue with our bus booking - could not recommend more.

Friendliness of staff, delicious food

My friend’s room toilet facilities could not be fixed although they tried.

Tutto positivo, stanza molto bella grande e curata nell arredo, posizione ottima, staff gentilissimo e pronto ad aiutare e organizzare anche spostamenti

Lovely room and very helpful staff

-

The best hotel I stayed in during my trip to India. The room was beautiful and authentic, decorated with Indian artifacts. Very clean and spacious. The bed was extremely comfortable. Vicky, the manager, was very efficient and helpful. From the rooftop restaurant there was a view of the Haveli as well as the fort. The food at the restaurant was varied and delicious. The room included breakfast, and free coffee, tea, and mineral water were available throughout the day

Non

Disponibilità e simpatia dei fratelli che gestiscono la struttura. Ci hanno persino permesso di fare la doccia dopo il rientro dal safari nel deserto, anche se non avevamo più la stanza. Pulizia e tranquillità. Ci hanno aiutato anche nell’escursioni e trasferimenti.Posizione eccezionale per visitare la città a piedi. Personale cordiale e disponibile. Anche il bar e ristorante offrono un’ottima scelta e qualità Terrazza con splendida vista su Haveli e Forte.

Nulla

I’ve just had 4 nights at Killa Bhawan Lodge. It’s a great place to stay with a lovely family atmosphere, fantastic staff and really good food. Vicky and his team do a great job and make you feel extremely welcome. I would definitely stay there again and highly recommend it. Thank you KB Lodge 🙏🙏

Ubicación inmejorable, desayuno muy rico, dispones de agua y café ilimitados, Vicky y sus ayudantes son muy amables y serviciales, nos explicó que visitar y nos entregó un mapa, las vistas en la terraza sin bonitas

Nada, todo perfecto

El personal muy atento y ayudándonos en todo momento.

Nada resaltabke

Direkt gegenüber dem wunderbaren und sehr sehenswerten Patwa Haveli gelegen. Schöne Dachterrasse, ausgesprochen freundliche Besitzer und auch Personal, sehr liebevoll eingerichtet mit vielen ansprechenden Details, man fühlt sich wie Zuhause und sehr willkommen! (Die nur teilweise funktionierende Aircondition wird sicher repariert werden). Wir wurden vom Bruder des Besitzers, der ein Hotel (Killa Bhawan) im Fort betreibt, auf dessen Terrasse zum Tee eingeladen und genossen zweimal eine wunderbare Pause mit Blick auf das Fort. Sehr außergewöhnlich!

Struttura con una terrazza invidiabile, proprio davanti ad una delle maggiori attrazioni della città. Vista sul forte splendida. Vicky è un host eccezionale, ci ha fatti sentire a casa. Ottimo il ristorante sulla terrazza.

Location (we found important to stay outside the fort where tourists accomodation contribute to weaken the fort foundations) Spotless room. Extremely quiet Vicky and his team were extremely helpful. Rooftop view on the fort Associated with the more upscale Killa Bhawan boutique hotel

Can't think of anything at all

Once you enter the place you feel like you’re in a typical local house. The decor is very beautiful and you can see that they put a lot of effort in decorating the place. It’s very homey. The light is beautiful. The rooftop is fantastic and has beautiful view and the coffee makes it easier to even dine. Thanks again for everything We loved it.

Nothing

Very helpful staff, great location, infrastructure (terrasse) and rooms

Its really worth it !

Absolutely perfect! We had two beautiful rooms. The rooftop restaurant was delicious and had a beautiful view. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly.

It was perfect!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay. This is an incredible place: clean, great location, good food, excellent service. Thank you so much to Vicky, he's exceptionally kind and made our trip to Jaisalmer particularly brilliant!

The host, the room interior

None

Nice room, good location, lovely food especially palak paneer with the thali :)

Staff and owner are so cooperative.. Feel like home away from home !!!

The terrace cafe

Excellent location with great view from both the room and cafe on the terrace. Top class food all day, we had nearly all our meals here for four days. Wonderful people watching from the cafe terrace!! A genuine easy 10 min walk to the Fort. Room was super clean with good hot water and comfy bed. But best of all was the manager Vicky, he was so relaxed and attentive and helpful, with loads of good stories. A true host!

Nothing.

Best staff, best decor, best comfort. You are part of the family!

The owner and the whole staff were really kind to us. We also had a tour of the city with a very informative guide that was arranged by the hotel. And last but not least, you can have a nice lunch or dinner with the fort view!

Home stay with nice rooftop and well decorated rooms. Personnal is perfect and food is excellent.

Fantastic place to stay. The location is perfect to discover Jaisalmer and walk to the Fort and walled city The room was comfortable and spotless.The best part was the rooftop with the restaurant where you have a beautiful view of the city and the Fort. The breakfast and dinner were the best we had during our stay in India. But this place is very special due to Vicky the manager who has welcomed us in a best possible way, gave us guidance on places to visit and was always willing to tell us more about his beautiful country and culture.Thank you so much Vicky you are the perfect host

We had a lovely time at Killa Bhawan Lodge when we stayed in December 2023! the location was so great, right next to the Patwa Haveli which was absolutely beautiful. It also is in walking distance from most places and we walked easily to Jaisalmer fort. The staff were also so lovely, helped us organise taxis, sightseeing, and provided excellent service regarding the room and dining. We also really enjoyed the food, with the baingan being our favourite! Our room also provided a lovely sanctuary away from the busyness of Jaisalmer.

Vicky is an extremely helpful host. The free breakfast is great and there is free water and chai.

We stayed here for only one day and our experience was very good. Best thing is the location which is bang opposite the Patwon ki Haveli and at a walkable distance from the main fort area. Terrace area is also very good to just chill and have some good food with the fort view in the background. And last but not the least very friendly and helpful service by the owner.

Everything, especially the wonderfull terrace ito chill after discovering the monuments around. The rooms are lively designed with special accessoires dedicated to the cultural background. The service is perfect and all times helpful. We are very happy to stay here for some days. The restaurant on three terrace offers a mix of indien and europeon meals.

Room was clean and very confortable, traditional decoration, the roof top of the café is great and the food is very good.

Little bit of noise coming from the trafic in the street

I was going to stay 4 days and stayed 14. I felt at home at Killa Bhawan lodge. The rooms were spotlessly clean, the decor was tasteful, the bed was confortable, nighttime was quiet except for the occasional mooing cow (♥️). The restaurant had unbeatable views of PATWA Haveli (also from the rooms) as well as the fort. The food was delicious and they use filtered water to wash everything. All the staff were super attentive and sweet and Vicky, the manager, gentle, accommodating and kind beyond words.

We had a wonderful stay at Killa Bhawan. Beautiful and authentic rooms that take you back in time. Location is incredible. One Haveli can be seen right opposite and other places like the fort are in walking distance. The host was really nice and attentive and let us check in early as our train got in super early so we're very grateful for that 🙏 Great stay and can't wait to visit again.

Everything was perfect.

Everything is perfect: location, room decor, amenities, great coffee, tea and food. Service was outstanding, the owner is always ready to help and makes all efforts to provide you with an unforgettable experience in Jaisalmer. Also great value for money.

Really nice owner. He will speak to very politely and provide you amazing feedback on how to visit and when to visit tourist destinations.

A Kettle should have been provided during winter season and the food menu does not have a lot of options

We came for one day and stayed for ten!!! Great location,very clean ,beautifully decorated rooms,hot water and comfy bed..We ate all our meals at their roof top cafe which was very clean and the food was well cooked with an amazing view of the fort and Patwa Haveli. All the staff were kind and helpful, the manager Vicky was such a lovely person,arranged all our sightseeing trips and made our stay very special . It was the highlight of our Rajasthan trip and would highly recommend..

Nothing

The place was clean and the room had killa like ambience. Highly recommended. The host Vicky is a nice & humble person, always ready to help.

If they could provide an electric water kettle & tea-coffee kit in the room, it would've been better.

Loved the room, loved the food and tea and loved the staff

great time. This small guest house/hotel is managed by Vicky who is a great host. He was very helpful and friendly and he suggested us what to do in Jaisalmer. KB lodge is an old Rajasthani house/haveli with The rooms are very nice and clean, with beautiful furniture and very comfortable beds! Hot water is always available. KB lodge has a beautiful terrace where they serve breakfast (very good and fresh). Menu is 100% vegetarian. We also had dinner, we ordered Thali and it was very very good!! Enjoy this place! Thank you Vicky

Everything was ok

I booked this place for 2 nights but due to change on my plans I had to stay only for one night. The policy did not allow any modification, however Vicky (the owner) did everything possible to make my stay easier and comfortable. He accepted an early check-in, so I entered 5 hours before the normal check-in time. He also offered me free lunch and transport to get to the airport on the day of my departure. The place was just amazing! Comfortable room with a nice double bed and a spacious bathroom and good wifi. All very traditional according to the architectural style of the city. The location was unbeatable, just next to the main Haveli (traditional palace museum mansion) and very near to the other two most important Havelis (7 minutes max. walking distance) of Jaisalmer. More or less the same distance to get to the Jaisalmer Fort by foot and approximately 1km away from the Gadisar Lake which is another attraction in the city. Nonetheless, the big plus of the accommodation is its terrace! Having breakfast there or any meal is a must do thing and also get to the highest part of the terrace, offers fairly the best possible view to the Jaisalmer Fort. I recommend checking it both day and night! Overall I had a great stay there and I wish I could have stayed there for more!

By being next to the main Haveli of Jaisalmer, the area can get very crowded during the day but this didn't affect my sleep at all as it starts getting loud after 10 am.

We stayed here for 2 days and liked following things about this property: 1. Property is located very near to fort, lake and havelis. It is convenient to walk around and explore the city. 2. Terrace of this property has good seating arrangement with a view of fort and patwon ki haveli 3. Service was exceptionally good and staff was super active to help us during our stay 4. Cafe in the property is a lively place to spend leisure time during the day 5. Room is equipped with all basic amenities

Nothing as such. This property is well designed and managed.

Vicky the owner was a superb, very knowledgeable and guided us with his experience of sites to visit and things to do. The roof top restaurant had very good food and terrific views of the Fort and Pakwan ki Haveli.

Outside noise was a bit of a bother but the location made up for it:)

Excellent hospitality, pleasant rooms, nice rooftop restaurant.

There was nothing to dislike.

A lovely boutique hotel in the old city of Jaisalmer with great views of the Fort. Nothing was too much trouble for Vicky and his staff, it was quiet , stylish and a great location for enjoying the city. With a lovely rooftop cafe with delicious food .

Nothing !

Great location fort a short walk away. Continuous free tea and coffee. Great views of the fort from roof restaurant. Lovely helpful staff.

If you accept Indian standards are not UK standards then this is good value for the money.

Killa Bhawan Lodge is a great place to stay! Central location, great food and very helpful host. Also loved the continuous free coffee on offer!

Very large room, with a window facing the small place in front the hotel. Vicky was very helpful, provided many tips on what do see and do and helped organize travel to Jodhpur after my flight was cancelled. The haveli itself is very nice and well decorated, with an awesome rooftop terrace and a great view.

The handhelp bidet faucet was leaking. Apart from that, all good

Good location with view on the old haveli (also museum), veey nice view on the fort itself in walking distance. Vicky is very helpfull, not pushing it at all. Rooms very cosy.

Nothing

The location is perfect. The staff is sweet, helpful, never pushy,…

Liked the people, both manager and staff. They were great - both Rajasthanis and Nepalese. They were super friendly and helpful. Vicky was a great help. He organised my excellent desert safari and gave many useful tips to explore Jaisalmer. His elder brother received me with great enthusiasm in another Killa Bhawan Lodge inside the fort. There also the Nepalese staff were great. The room was super cosy and nicely decorated with Rajasthani arts and antiques. The AC functioned well, which is super important during the hot season.

We really enjoyed our time at Killa Bhawan Lodge. Vicky was so nice and really went out of his way to help us get around Jaisalmer, find the right places to eat, visit and shop and made us feel at home at once. Thanks so much!!

The view from the rooftop is spectacular. The staff there,specially Vicky,the Manager was very helpful and nice.

Very friendly welcoming staff, allowed early check in, always on hand to assist without being pushy. Lovely rooftop restaurant, great views and location, easily the best place I’ve stayed in India.

Nothing.

Perfect location, adjacent to Patwon Ki Haveli and opposites the Fort. Vicky, the manager is extremely helpful and attentive. Room furnitures and finishes with large bathroom, all are above my expectation

Nothing

After 6 weeks of traveling across all of India this was the best guest house we stayed in, hands down. The hotel and rooms are wonderfully decorated, the hotel roof top cafe has a fantastic view of fort that can’t be beaten, the food was delicious (get the thali special and upgrade the lassi), but without a doubt it was Vicky the owner who made this place special, what a lovely and kind host! We only stayed here one night but not only did he offer to hold our bags for us, he sat down and planned our itinerary with us, gave sensible recommendations of things to do, how to get there, and local tips on where to shop and how much to bargain. Not only did he offer us the best chai in town multiple times during our stay (as well as many several bottles of cold water) he even took us into the kitchen to show us how to cook it, and also sent us to his brothers’ hotel inside the fort for free chai with a wonderful view looking out over the city. Vicky made us feel like we had an old friend in this city, and that’s something money can’t buy. Thank you Vicky for being a wonderful host

Absolutely not. Book yourself in here and know you will be looked after.

Mr Vicky is a wonderful host. He was welcoming, friendly, always with a smile on his face. He took time out of his busy schedule to sit and chat with us and help us in every way possible.... Overall, I can easily say that it was the best place I had stayed ever. Period.

This is a total gem. Not only is it in the best location of town, with an amazing roof terrace for you to sit back enjoy the sights and sounds of the streets below with some chai, our room was most comfortable and tastefully decorated. Vicky the owner, was incredibly helpful and forthcoming with information of the best things to do in town and the best way how to experience everything with helpful tips of things to do (or not to do!). The thali at their restaurant is also fantastic.

everything! room, rooftop, the owner and the amazing food at the restaurant.

Really appreciate the hotel Mr Vicky is very professional devoted for his job and helpful Fully recommend

Absolutely amazing host and service. Couldn't have asked for anything more. Highly recommended!

This hotel was hands down the best hotel of our whole India trip. Vicky is an amazingly kind and thoughtful owner who does everything to make you feel at home. The whole building is made out of the typical Jaisalmer sandstone and has a lovely and authentic interior. The room was very cosy, clean and spacious. On the rooftop there is a lovely restaurant/cafe with delicious food and friendly staff. You can even go one etage higher up and enjoy a magnificent view over Jaisalmer. We can't think of anything to complain about because it was simply a perfect stay and way beyond our expectations. Don't hesitate to book a room here, you won't be disappointed in the slightest!

The owner the way they treat excellent

In 6 weeks in India, this was the best hotel where we stayed. The rooms are simply beautiful and impeccably clean. The rooftop restaurant and terrace are gorgeous and great places to enjoy the view or read. Food at the restaurant was lovely, no complaints at all. Free coffee and water all day. However, this was still topped by the service and hospitals we experienced. Vicky, the owner, went out of his way to make our stay in Jaisalmer as good as possible. He organized a tour guide, tuktuks and a desert safari for us, but we never felt pressured the slightest bit. Highly recommend their sleeping under the stars desert experience. That was a strong contender for our best night in India. Thank you Vicky, you're an amazing host.

We arrived with the early train from Delhi (5.30 am) and we were able to do an early check-inn without any extra cost. Vicky, the manager of the hotel was very helpful and efficient. We had a great stay and we will definitively recommend this place. We enjoyed very much the view from the roof top.
