Il complesso architettonico, i giardini bellissimi e le camere accoglienti e grandi. Gradevole l’accompagnamento musicale sia di mattina che la sera che rendeva l’atmosfera magica .
Migliorabile la qualità, la quantità e varietà del cibo sia a colazione che a cena.
Die Zimmer in dem imposanten Gebäude waren beeindruckend groß, sauber, mit modernem Bad und sehr gut ausgestattet. Alles versprüht einen historischen Charme, mt vielen alten Jagdtrophäen und Fotos an den Wänden.
Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis des Frühstücks war aus unserer Sicht nicht optimal, die zwei über den Roomservice georderten Gerichte waren Mittelmaß.
Luxueus en prima service.
Omgeving van zwembad heeft upgrade nodig. Rond het zwembad is het niet echt hygienisch door de vele duiven. Hier is duidelijk meer nodig. Iemand van het vele personeel die alles een beetje op orde houdt is nodig
Chambre restaurant personnel calme cadre parfait
Pas de double rideaux trop de lumière dans les chambres et le couloir reste allumé tt la nuit dommage
Good location
Beautiful
The ambience and hospitality both were superb. People longing for heritage architecture must spend at least a night here.
The terrace rooms are not accessible by lift but only stairs. People having climbing issues will have to climb up the stairs from the top floor to the terrace.
Truly beautiful property, the palace is really stunning and the view of the garden is extremely peaceful and really special. The staff was also very accommodating of our requests and send people to help any time we had issues.
It was all a bit rundown and dirty. The toilet had some stains, and the bathroom was not very clean, you could see there was hair in the corners. The other issue that I had is around how clean the bedsheets and the Pillowcases were. The ones that were already in the room were just a little bit dirty - I could see some spots. But the ones that they brought us when we asked for extra blankets were super dusty. I noticed outside of the room, on the terrace, some extra mattresses and towels were being kept. I can imagine the bedsheets were held in a similar way, which explains the “dirty” feeling.
Royalties, Elegance of the property.
Staff were on the rush during dinner hours.
Établissement de très haut de gamme , les prestations sont à l’avenant. Excellent Restaurant. Personnel parfait. Même la piscine était agréable.
Légèrement excentré par rapport au centre-ville de BKN. Nécessité une voiture ou un tuk tuk.
La beauté du lieu . La gentillesse du personnel La qualité du restaurant
Le mobilier de piscine est à changer Certaines nuit impossible de dormir en raison d’un bruit probable de générateur
Staff are very friendly
Breakfast was not that great. Bathroom was getting flooded if showering for more than 5 minutes or so.
I vale la pena, no tienen el concepto de servicio al cliente, el hotel está muy descuidado y el personal no es amable
For a history buff its like wild wild west of GOLD RUSH. enjoyed the ambience , service and rooms . all in all was lovely weekend stay.
Beautiful original building, with authentic features and furniture. Some lovely staff and dinner was good.
Service was lacking. Welcome/check in was perfunctory, there was no service in the bar although it was open, and we were told nothing about breakfast charges until after the event. There is no nearby alternative for breakfast, and the selection and quality were well below par, and it was very expensive. Breakfast here was the worst value experience of our 15 day tour of Rajasthan. Pool area was unusable and is under netting.
Majestic
Nothing
Services, beauty of the place and structure as always be perfect
Was given an outer room secluded, breakfast wasn't included and wasn't informed even on asking. The food was very bad, very stale, did not expect this from Lakmi niwas, the muffins were months old. For no reason paid huge amount for such bad breakfast. Wouldn't want to stay again.
Heritage collection is good
Food is not delicious as per cost. Bathroom facilities not up to mark.
The staff is outstanding at this beautiful property. We only stayed one night in Bikaner and weren’t expecting much based on some of the negative reviews we read on Trip Advisor before booking. However our experience was outstanding. We were warmly greeted and given two beautiful suites. The floor in our room had just been refinished and was still off-gassing. We asked to be moved and were promptly and cheerfully given another room. We arrived on Diwali and the hotel had fireworks on the front lawn and a dinner in the outdoor central courtyard. There were live musicians and an incredible dancer during dinner. Breakfast the next morning was great and the service was friendly and professional. To top it off our friends left behind some clothing. The hotel promptly texted me a photo of what was left behind and kindly mailed it to our address in India so that I could return it to them when we finally go back to the USA. Thank you Mr. Narendra Singh Shekhawat for going above and beyond. I happily recommend a stay at the Laxmi Niwas Palace. We look forward to returning.
Beautiful heritage place
Decor can be uplifted, bit higher on price
Fantastic historical building, vast well equipped rooms with old charm. Dinner in the courtyard is a must!
Nothing
The surroundings.
this is royal experience, love to stay.
Great location, very good property, excellent food and service
it took a long time to get hot water in the shower. the maintenance of the old furniture/furnishings can be improved.
the property’s charm and the staff.
having to waste lot of water before getting hot water in wash room.
It is a palace with history and a beautiful zenana court. If renovated it would be amazing.
A rip off at 185E!!!! We thought we were booking into a good hotel but the property is in need of a complete facelift... high ceiling rooms, no possibility of opening windows, no view (felt like a prison), old furniture, dirty walls, torn towels, the corridors and court all messy after wedding previous day..... The booking.com price dated yesterday was 83E.....even that would almost be too much but 185E for what we got.!!!! My God!! Stay away! Last night my husband asked to speak with the manager at 9am, before our departure today. Ofcourse, this morning there was no manager to be seen. I should add that eventually we were given an acceptable room but the the money charged considering the state of the hotel, is nothing but daylight robbery!!!
Property was too good we enjoyed a lot during stay here

Excellent service, amenities, staff, location, property
location is amazing. best hotel in my life
The Heritage and History behind the Property and the unique nature of every room.
Staff was courteous, very good food and always helpful throughout. Missed using the billiards room and other amenities to admire its beauty.
Beautiful historic building, large room, good food at the restaurant, staff were lovely. We were leaving early so they packed us breakfast to go which was great.
Shower was very old and had only lukewarm water. Very large grounds mean building is somewhat isolated from the street making a taxi or car necessary for any trips outside the hotel
heritage building
very old and dated rooms. bathtub was about to break. Toilets were very dirty and very old.
the building is gorgeous
the bed uncomfortable insufficient heat plumbing is ancient
The building architecture is absolutely spectacular and is the highlight of the hotel. It is simply a great experience to just walk around the premises and explore every corner, the courtyard and rooftops, filled with memorabilia.
The category of rooms we had did not have windows. The furniture and equipment could be upgraded to today’s standards in India for this category of hotels. The breakfast options were fine but could be easily ameliorated to improve the overall experience.
- the palace is truly amazing - travel in time - the experience - the staff
- equipments getting a bit old - could be cleaner for that range of price
The property has the Royal look and feel however the property can be better maintained. We had deal with a tripping fuse for our room. We lost electricity in our room 4 times in 40’minutes. It only was sustainable after they reduced the heater load and we spent the night in a colder room.
Fantastic heritage property with very polite and helpful staff.
Hertige property & well mention
good ambience
no hot water , absolute shame. it was a scam - the manager and staff dont worry. Will put my reviews in Instagram and twitter.
The place is very posh, elegant and has a nice Indian Colony flavour.
Nothing.
Everything about this place is amazing. The amount of history this place has is amazing. Palace staff is very warm and welcoming.
Being a palace the prices are high but I think the food prices could have been a bit reasonable.
With over Rs 15K per night the property provides a unique experience of old world charm and grandeur. The staff ensures to cater to your request and making your stay a memorable one. The food was super tasty. The room was beautiful too.
The property has fallen into hard times which can be clearly seen around in the crumbling infrastructure., Maintenance is improper, much of the property is inaccessible due to ongoing renovations. The gym is barely usable. Most of the time the property is used for arranging functions and parties which takes precedence over hotel guests. Hers hoping the responsible people take note and push to improve the lost standards of the hotel
We stayed one night on our way from Delhi to Jaisalmer. The property met our needs for a stopover. Staff was very nice. Both meals were fine
Did not eat after food poisoning
Felt like stay in fort
All the staff busy in servicing marriage party, VIPs leaving us by ourselves. After multiple requests, they somehow attended us. Property and rooms needed more attention.
Excellent experience, the Maharaja style 😊
Endroit superbe au niveau architectural !!! Un peu vieillot dans l ensemble mais plein d histoire
Excellent hospitality Staff behaviour superb Full value of momey
Amazing location and property
Le Laxmi Niwas Palace est un établissement absolument exceptionnel car il s'agit de l'ancien palais du Maradjah de Bikaner, ouvert en 1902, avec tout le confort de l'époque de style anglais et la magnificence d'un palais royal (peintures à l'or fin, façades ornementées, chambres gigantesques...). Pour respecter la qualité historique et patrimoniale des lieux, et c'est une bonne chose, l'hôtel a choisi de localiser certains services plus modernes dans leur second hôtel, un petit palais Art deco très beau, où leur chauffeur vous amène gratuitement à la demande et vous attend sur place, par exemple si vous souhaitez profiter de restaurants supplémentaires ou d'une piscine sur le toit (celle du Laxmi donne sur les jardins).
Service is outstanding, you feel like an honoured guest
物超所值,前台服務人員非常有禮,國際水準。房間內空間非常大,很舒適。夜間中庭有傳統歌舞表演,坐在中庭欣賞,別有風情。距離 JUNAGARH FORT 只需幾分鐘的車程,交通便利。
Hôtel magnifique situé dans un jardin grandiose. Accueil parfait et personnel très attentif. Un bar et une salle de billard extraordinaires où vous attendent tous les animaux de la jungle !
Très bel hôtel chargé de l'histoire de sa ville et de ses rois. Ils étaient visiblement très chasseurs au vue de tous les trophées dont, dans la salle de billard, 8 tigres et 4 lions. Un vrai zoo mais pas très vivant. De très grandes chambres et SDB. Situation un peu isolée mais très calme dans une zone de palais. Service impeccable avec des pièces donnant sur un patio central. Un peu vide en juillet qui n'est pas une période touristique.
Accomadation is great, unfortunately because it was built many years ago, central air conditioning could not be built in now. The air cooler option in the room could not beat the heat.
L hotel Laxmi est l exemple de l Inde des Maharajas. Celui de Bikaner a laissé une trace dans l histoire ; outre sa vision pour sa ville (canaux d irrigation, chemin de fer ...) il représenta l Inde à la table de négociations à la fin de la premiere guerre mondiale. L hotel retrace la vie de cette époque au travers de nombreuses photos. Le lieu est magique : la bar anglais, la salle de billard où les trophées de chasses trônent Le personnel, uniquement masculin, semble hérité de leur fonction de père en fils !
Hotel con historia ya que forma parte del palacio de la realeza de Bikaner, coincidimos con la grabación de una pelicula de Boliwood, ideal para hosoesarse una noche.
This place has very big rooms and even the shower had a separate room very spacious good staff we could imagine the way the kings live the history of the surrounding is still there.very comfortable beds and good facilities. jess shukla Sydney Australia
Best hotel stay ever!!! The hotel is a former palace with all its beauty. The staff at the hotel is extremely attentive and friendly. They go above and beyond in anticipating your needs and taking care of them without you needing to even ask! I would go to Bikaner just to spend time at this fabulous hotel and be pampered.
bel endroit service trop froid visite ce l hôtel au pas de charge
This was an old palace converted to a hotel. The public areas were good and the restaurant was also good. The room we were given was on the top floor with no access by elevator as it stopped 2 floors below and there were a lot of stairs to climb. The room was adequate at best and the bathroom less so giving the impression that it was long overdue for a refurbish. Overall impression public areas good room etc badly in need of more work to come up to standard expected.
Fantastic
Magnifique palais de maharaja rénové en hôtel. Les parties communes sont magnifiques et nous plongent dans ce qu'était la vie d'un maharaja. Patio et jardins très bien entretenus. Bon diner et très bon petit déjeuner. Seule déception:les chambres immenses et très sombres avec couvertures de lit d'un autre âge et salle de bain à refaire. Le personnel est toujours serviable.
Bon hotel, cadre magnifique, a l'ecart du centre ville donc voiture necessaire car pas de touc-touc a proximite. Piscine agreable. Petit dej ordinaire.
Superbe hotel, mais la piscine gagnerait a être nettoyée plus souvent. Confort des chambres correct. Personnel pro et très serviable. Parfait pour profiter du cadre, mais pas le niveau de confort d'un véritable palace.
the best hotel in The world You ll feel like a dream
