Shahi Palace was a spectacular place to stay, probably my favourite of all guesthouses. The rooms were clean and each were individually decorated in its own unique way; the restaurant served gorgeous food at good prices; and all the hotel staff were so friendly and wonderful to chat to. The owners were incredibly helpful, organizing our desert trip and always... More

We are an Indian couple staying in San Jose. We stayed in this hotel based on the good reviews here and in lonely planet. However the folks here are more interested in servicing foreigners only. The room was good however nobody helped us with our luggage. The overnight desert safari was horrible.. They did not even supply tents and we... More

We stayed at Shahi Palace in February 2012, and have to say it was our favourite hotel during our 1 month in India. What makes Shahi so great are the 4 brothers who own and run it. They are extremely hospitable, and always more than happy to help out with your travel plans, or just to chat. Rooms are clean,... More

We were actually booked into a sister holet , Oasis Haveli but as that was quiet we were offered an upgrade to saty at the Shahi Palace, which as it turned out worked in our favour. The hotel has a great location with teriffic views of the walled city and within easy walking distance. The rooms and public areas were... More

To be honest we didn't think much of Jaisalmer. The splendid fort was being destroyed by commercialism and greed, much of the palace resembled a filthy latrine, open sewers provided ample food for flies and feral pigs. Bikaner is a far better bet if you want to visit a desert town. Shahi palace was OK. The rooms were small, dark... More

Finally!!! A hotel that's got it right! My husband and I traveled in Asia for almost 6 mths and this was our favorite stop. I can't tell you how refreshing it was to find a place that understands quality and customer service. They will not try to nickle and dime you like most of the hotels in India. In fact,... More

Highly recommended. The hotel itself is very good, in a good location. The food is amazing! Some of the best curries I've ever eaten. The hospitality we received was second to none. A must for all travellers to Jaisalmer. More

I cannot recommend this hotel enough. It is close to the fort, with beautiful views from the roof top restaurant and the staff are very very helpful. They called a doctor for me when I was not well and next day took me to his surgery for a check-up - all as part of the hotel service. The food was... More
