I regret booking this property. No one was available at reception when we checked in early morning, and I had to wake the staff myself. First impression itself was bad—receptionist was messy, sleepy, and looked untrained. They gave us a room on the 4th floor despite ground-floor rooms being available. With a senior citizen, climbing 4 floors without a lift was terrible. There were no basic amenities—no bottled water, only tap water. The room was unhygienic, washroom was smelly, and overall cleaning was poor. To add to misery, power cut lasted an hour with no backup facility. I kept calling multiple times for tea but nobody responded. When I later asked for water, they told me to go outside and buy it myself instead of helping out. Unbelievable service standards! And then, instead of improving my experience, the same staff tried to sell me a desert safari package. After such pathetic service, who would even think of booking through them? To anyone considering this place—don’t waste your time and money.

Good location and rooms.great service

This hotel was very nice with family I was stay couple of day they have great view from the room fort view and from rooftop restaurant so we will like this place would a she working and hot water

All good

It’s beautiful place. Look like Palace. We travel with family to feel like family members, they give us beautiful service and room was clean and they pick us from train station as well. Thank you so much great experience. Great Safari experience.

It’s beautiful place.

Clean, comfortable and cheap. The hotel is new and in a good position, close to the fort but in a quiet street. The staff is very kind and helpful, and it feels safe for women solo travellers with CCTV and lockers. The view from the rooftop restaurant is amazing! They also offer safaris in the desert with camels, and it was so great!

Nothing

Modern comforts with traditional charm Wonbin Safari is a lovely blend of heritage and comfort. Newly built, everything feels fresh and well-maintained. The rooftop view is breathtaking, especially at sunset. Great service too.

Nothing.

This was the first time I walked out of a hostel without staying there. - The property does not at all look like in the pictures! There is no rooftop Café, and the rooftop was littered with trash and the furniture really ran down. - The room I booked was extremely different to the room they checked me into (I booked the 6bed female). I ended up in a basement room with no windows. - They promised a pick up from the station but nobody showed - when I arrived the staff were still sleeping. I wasn't able to wake them up, but was able to enter the hostel and go all the way up to the rooftop. This did not make me feel like the hostel is a safe environment. They later explained that it's Ramadan so they sleep in the morning. I appreciate the importance of Ramadan, but then tell people they can't check in in the morning (it was 9am when I got there) or make different arrangements. I had previously informed them about my estimated time of arrival All in all I did not feel comfortable staying there so left to go to a different hostel.

good view,good place! also camel safari so amazing. thank youu

Very good and nice received very clean o

Fantastic hostel, we arrived on a night bus early in the morning and started searching for someone to stay, wonbin (the owner) came and picked us up from a cafe and brought us to the hostel. Room was really nice and comfortable, all the staff were very welcoming. Lovely chai and ginger/lemon teas in the rooftop cafe with a great view. The desert safari was incredible with Raja - such an experience to spend a night under the stars with a fire cooked feast, porridge in the morning, and great chat. Highly recommend aradin bhai is good

They offer desert safari in which they will take you to desert on jeep and from there we went on a camel ride then we made a camp in the desert and it was an open camp. We made a camp fire and played, danced and we were singing. It was one pf my best experience. The staff here is very friendly especially alladin. Here you get very good rooms also. They are good and maintained well.

Their hotel is good However their safari is not good as per the price Breakfast and fast food was tasteless

The owner was very kind

It wasn’t too clean

Wonbin Safari Jaisalmer provide very good service like The camel ride through the sand dunes is a favorite among guests. The peaceful experience and beautiful sunset views leave a lasting impression.

Wonbin Safari Jaisalmer warm hospitality of the staff, who go above and beyond to ensure comfort. The traditional meals and cultural experiences are particularly appreciated.

The rooftop view is amazing, restaurant and food, room facilities, behaviours of staff . Location is perfect . A few minutes away from fort and gadisar. Overall, we had a good experience.

Rooms was good and rooftop restaurant was also very good and views was best

I didn't like anything, neither the room nor the facility. I would not recommend anyone.

Very unprofessional and dishonest people. They quote you so high and negotiate to an already hiked price. The rooms and services are pathetic.

Flush was not working in bathrooms

The rooftop cafe, view from there and the property location

Extremely rude staff and very poor service.

It was an amazing stay I recommend Wonbin Safari and Booking.com

Rooftop restaurant

Came back to find someone had slept in my bed. I asked the staff to change the sheets & sort out the issue. I put my possessions on the bed. Came back later to find someone sleeping in my bed after throwing my stuff down. He refused to get out & the staff didn't try & help to start with, they had no records of who is in each bed. There was hot water once and not the other time whilst showering. Broken window & electrical sockets.

Clean dormitory, staff very kind and delicious food in a rooftop restaurant with beautiful views to the fort

Location

Facility of dental kit not provided

The staff were great - we were able to use a bathroom and keep luggage on the premises even 2 days after checkout! Would recommend

The location is good as it us close to Sonar fort, a walking distance.

They could not provide basis thing i.e clean water in washroom. The water was yellow and unhygienic.

One of the best stay at reasonable price and the location is worth staying

Nothing

Nice view of the fort from rooftop, helpful staff

Food and drinks expensive, Bathroom not very clean. Door jammed. Room with fort view is not worth it

Their are a lot of facilities available in this hotel including tent , travel ,parking, food. Everything was of very nice quality, and it was a great experience 👍 desert safari was good nice staff

Wonbin safari good

The location is perfect for a traveller as every main locations are at walkable distance. The staff behaviour is also a plus point.

The number of bathrooms are less, while the bathroom is clean and spacious.

Location and Room size and Service

Cleanliness and washroom

Nice hotel very good staff and top class restaurant also. This experience was very good 👍 thanks ali bhai. We will be meet soon.

Every thing is very good

Staff

I liked the stay and location, rooftop restaurant has good food at affordable price along with good views, staff behaviour was good.

Everything was good

Rats inside the property

The my were trying to con guest into taking packages that were 5 times more expensive

Service

Start with location it's near to fort and other facilities, staff is very helpful, service is top notch and rooftop cafe is amazing..

Nothing to unlike it's the best in this price

The stay was good. But in my opinion, package of stay at tent, jeep safari and camel ride is too much expensive as per their facilities. Only stay at hotel is good. But package of desert safari is not at all value for money.

Location is near the fort

Day 1 - right after booking asked for advance even after booking via booking.com with a credit card. Day before arrival confirmed booking 👌 with no indication of any problem . Arrived at night at 11:30 PM exhausted and was informed room that was booked was not available and was on a painting job...and was offered another inferior room with no fort view .Found out in the morning my booking was rented out . Next came the desert safari...was over charged Rs 4500 for 20 mins of jeep safari and 10 mins of camel ride. What ever desert he promises its all fake ...it's a ride to Sam with over touristy dirty sam dune . Charged 500 for local site seeing with auto.His auto driver left us in gadisagar lake and went away .Trust me it's can be covered all within 30 mins walk which I was not aware of and he utilized it . Jaisalmer is very much power cut prone and he does not have backup to run the AC .He also has switches to switch off ac connection from below. Now the room was messy and dusty and shabby and 80 % of time without ac even after paying the price..not for families to stay ...may be for students in a budget. The restaurant in the rooftop is overpriced and mostly running empty. I had only one impression that Jaisalmer is a very poor city with people waiting to pound on tourists and caring nothing about the quality of service and rob u out of ur pockets.

Close to bus stand, railway station, and fort

Room cooling could be better with small individual fans for each bed

One of best hostel i have ever stayed and very friendly staff

There is nothing to dislike.

Nice people

I like location of the hotel and staff behavior.

Amazing place . Very quite relaxing with beautiful views Of the fort right in front . The rooms were clean well ventilated. Toilets were clean The staff is very helpful I wonder why some people were not satisfied with the staff . Safari experience was also good . Highly recommend

Excellent

Great staff

The staff at Wonbin went above and beyond my expectations, they consistently inquired if I required any assistance and they were eager to help carry my bags upstairs. Wonbin offers the best value for its prime location, guests can enjoy a view of the fort from either their windows or while dining at The Art Bliss Cafe. The place if clean and modern interior with the Jaisalmer look and feel.

Nothing,

The room was very clean and the staff was very friendly and professional :) The safari was very nice and beautiful in the desert of thar ! Hiralal is a very good manager! 100% reccomend

All good!

The staff was so so nice and helpfull, we arrived early in the morning and were able to check in straight away. We decided to do the tour the same day instead of the next day and they arranged everything so quick and nothing was a problem. The tour we did was really nice as well, amazing hosts & good food. The flexibility of this stay gives you a very warm and welcome feeling :)

No hot water, but understandable in the desert

Beware of falling into their deceptive schemes,they are capable of defrauding anyone. Avoid paying in advance for a desert safari.Their tactic is to exploit the naivety of foreigners who are unfamiliar with local pricing norms.During my recent visit, they initially quoted a price of 10k for the desert safari but eventually charged us Rs 7500, insisting on advance payment. We were provided with unsatisfactory accommodations at a camp called Marian Safari Camp, where the bedding was old unclean torn rates and mosquitoes inside and the food was unhygienic, resulting in illness the next morning. The quality of the tents did not match the exorbitant price charged,they were hardly worth Rs 500. I strongly advise against booking desert camel safaris from the individuals at Wonbin Safari Hostel, as they are dishonest operators. Opt instead for reputable accommodations like Fotiya Hotel,where we stayed the following day. Upon inquiry, we discovered that desert safaris are available for as little as Rs 4000 per person during the offseason, with the option of high-class Swiss tent accommodations in the desert. Keep in mind that the seasonal rate for a desert safari is Rs 5000 for two people, while offseason rates are Rs 4000 for the same number of guests. I reiterate, do not book a desert safari with them; conduct thorough market research to ensure you get the best value for your money.

Money’s worth. The location was good.

Cafe closed. No chilled water at property. AC was not working properly.

Nice to stay for visit of Jaisalmer.

Smiling faces from the staff and a free transfer to the railway station at midnight.

To leave..

kitchen and dining area not maintained properly

Nothing

The pictures and reality was totally different. The lights were blinking and not functioning properly. One of the fan was only functioning on full speed and another was too low. Ac was not working. water heater wasn't working. The restaurant was not working. Washroom was pathetic. It was the worse stay and unhygienic.

I had a delightful stay at Wonbin Hostel for two nights in their dormitory. The staff were exceptionally friendly, and their hospitality was top-notch. The terrace offers a stunning view of the Jaisalmer fort, adding to the charm of the stay. They excel in making adhoc arrangements, and I'm especially grateful for arranging a drop to the Jaisalmer station at midnight. Overall, a fantastic experience that I would highly recommend to fellow travelers

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Wonbin Safari Hotel and overall, my experience was quite positive. The hotel staff (Aladin & Hiralal) were exceptionally friendly and welcoming, making me feel right at home. The room was clean and comfortable, providing a relaxing environment after a long day of travel. One aspect that stood out to me was the hotel's commitment to sustainability. I appreciated the eco-friendly initiatives such as recycling bins in the room and the use of energy-efficient lighting throughout the hotel. Overall, I had a pleasant stay at the Wonbin Safari Hotel and would recommend it to others. With a few small improvements, it could be an even more exceptional experience. I look forward to visiting again in the future."

Foods are available in nearby area, market at entry of Golden fort, Mandir palace is located at 5 minutes walking distance

Not applicable

I had a great stay, specifically the safari. If you come to Jaisalmer you have to do the safari since there won’t be much other things to do except the fort. The safari they offered were exceptional and just as expected

Nothing were bad. The dormitory was standard

Very nice hostel, the guys are very chilled and friendly, and the rooftop is amazing!

NOTHING.

(As on 26/02/2024. With all the screenshots attached on google map review) Please book a good hotel in Jaisalmer or this will happen to you at almost all cheap hotels of Jaisalmer. Please read if you are a couple or a family and planning to stay at this property. You will get a phone call to pay in advance once you book the property. And then they will send you a sugar-coated email saying 'free pick up & drop'. I sent them details for one hour early check-in (which they agreed) and free pick up a night ago and they confirmed it. But once we landed there, he told us that they don't have any vehicle to pick us up and I should pay Rs. 50 to ricksaw. I did it. Once I landed there, they started showing their true colours. I was given a non-AC room where the sink and toilets were leaking. When I asked them about a room change, they gave me a room (No. 304) in the corner of the basement where again the same problems existed. But we were tired of changing the room again so we didn't complain. Now comes the facilities part. They showed toiletries and towels in the amenities list on booking.com. But they didn't even give us drinking water let alone the amenities! The basement rooms are not fit for living as all the staff members sleep there and they make lots of noises till late mid-night. The hot water and most of the electric plugs were not working. We were given a hot-water rod to warm the water! The electricity was cut from 7 p.m. to 11:30 a.m. and their inverter stopped at midnight only. Now comes the main part of their scam and thuggery. The desert safari. They WILL NOT TELL YOU PRICE FOR THE SAFARI ON THE PHONE. The average price of a high-end safari in the desert with a night stay (with camel safari) is max. around 2500-3000 rs per night+1200 per jeep safari+1000rs for private pick-up (100 rs/person in a shared shuttle) and drop from the city (we came to know about this later). That means 5000 even if you take the upper limit.

Staff was super helpful, they arranged our desert safari which was the highlight of my stay in Jaisalmer.

We booked the room with balcony, for the price, it was good, although it could have been cleaner. The view of the fort from the window was beautiful though.

Terrible to non existent hot water, this is what partially ruined the stay for us, if you want hot water, do not stay here

*Cleanliness & Maintenance* was superb, just trust the site reviews or pictures uploaded…its the same in reality as well!! *Most Comfortable* *Ideal Location* all the city attractions are near. *Responsive Management* there was nothing that they ignored or neglected,they just won our heart with all the love they showered. *Outstanding Customer Service* they did what they committed.

Nothing, everything was fab.

Staff were super friendly and very helpful! Location was about a 10-15 minute walk into the fort. Their desert overnight safari was really great with the option of being able to shower after you got back even if you weren’t staying the following night. The rooftop cafe was yummy and good value for money!

Stay was very well located with beautiful view of fort. Staff members are very caring and supportive, have arranged for a very late night pick up from station because of delay in train. Suggested good places to explore also

It had a totally bad experience, staff looks like a gangster so i always have a fear to stay there

Staff , dorms , no vibes nothing which I like

The rooms were clean and spacious. The staff were super helpful and friendly. They gave free train station drop off and organized airport pick up (for a good price) We also booked the safari through them which was amazing. They let us use the showers when we came back too even though we had checked out. The rooftop is lovely. The location is super central - about 10 mins walk to the fort.

The shower temperature wasn’t reliable with the hot water cutting off sometimes (but this isn’t uncommon in hostels!) The ac unit in the room was controlled by the front desk and they seemed to shut it off over night which meant we were warm at times.

Only view from roof

Everything is bad

Really good and beautiful hostel, they will make you feel like you are at home. Talab and all the staff it is really nice. I highly recommend this hostek

Everything nice
