When you enter the hotel premises you feel you are in a different world. It’s hard to describe the contrast you see between the two worlds. The hotel is awesome; the detailed work of the architecture is very beautiful. Rooms are comfortable but no character; I stayed in one of the more modern room. The hotel provides ayurvedic bio soaps... More

The USP of this place is the history attached to it. The Maharawal of Jaisalmer wanted to encourage his people to settle outside the golden fort as well. Since nobody was taking the first step he shifted out and built himself a palace to reside in. It was called the Mandir Palace. Its an extremely beautiful Palace hotel with exquisite... More

We stayed in Surya Mahal Suite @ Mandir Place in Jan 2012. This was actually the king's room earlier. The room is huge and gives a royal feeling. The terrace view of the fort and hotel is great. All the good restaurants are just outside the hotel, The Trio and Saffron, are the few to name. This is a heritage... More

Good location, but everything else was poor. Rooms were very cold as the night temp was down to 0C and no extra blankets available; (I think this is were I got my cold) Reception area is terrible and front desk staff have obviously not been trained. Great views from the roof. Breakfast was very poor. Had dinner outside as menu... More

The hotel is located on one wall of the fort and overlooks the city. The view from the terrace is breathtaking. The rooms are decent and service is very homely. The owner is always there to help and pays personal attention to the guest's comfort. More

It is a Heritage Property which needs good management. Apart from our Maharani Suite everything else was crap. service needs lot of attention and huge improvement is required. Restaurant and food they serve is worst we experienced In our whole Rajasthan Trip. Suite was nice with a large floor space, bathroom was below average. Staff were just OK. We had... More

My daughter and I spent one night at the historic palace. It is filled with artifacts and includes a museum. Reigning royalty resides in a wing of the palace and you can see the owner's horses being exercised in the courtyard just outside the palace. If you want to stay in a heritage hotel that has excellent service and amazing... More

My wife & I stayed at the Mandir Palace Sept 2011 for 3 nights & had a great time. I had called ahead and negotiated a very good price for one of its smaller rooms in the old Palace which was very clean and well maintained. We found the staff to be extremely helpful both across the hotel & at... More
