The Kings Retreat is your quintessential Jodphur old city hotel. We wanted a real experience within the old city and the Kings Retreat delivered. The owner and his staff are always keen to assist. The rooms are charming and clean. The restaurant has a wide range of food types. The view of the fort from the top floor is amazing.

You never quite know what you may be getting when you stay at a small, locally owned hotel. Sure, you can read reviews and look at pictures, but you never *really* know until you get there. I’ll get into the hotel itself in a moment, but the main benefit this place has going for it are its owners. They are kind and chatty, and aren’t just concerned about you having a good stay at their hotel, but a good stay in their city. They’re more than happy to sit and talk about where you should go, and are very interested in helping you understand the culture of the place you’re in. One of the owners said he’d come and sit with me at the restaurant on the roof while I ate, and he did. He even offered to go walking around one of the neighborhoods with me. I cannot emphasize how important this is. When you’re in a place like India for the first time, it’s absolutely vital that you have helpful people to lean on a bit. I don’t mean that in an “India is dangerous” kind of way, but in an “India can be completely confusing and difficult to comprehend” way. I would regularly come back with questions about things I saw while wandering, and not only were the owners willing to answer them, but they seemed genuinely excited by the opportunity to help me understand the culture of their city and their country. As for the hotel itself, it’s clean and comfortable. One thing you have to understand is that this is an old building, in the old part of the city — and those are GOOD things. Yes, there are more “western” style hotels in newer buildings in Jodhpur. There’s even one that’s under the Marriott umbrella. But if you want to stay at a Marriott, you can do that at home. And more importantly, those hotels are not in the old city, and that’s where you’re going to be spending your time. The Kings Retreat is right in the midst of it, and it was helpful to just be able to spend 15 minutes walking back to the room to take a shower or rest for a bit. As I said, this is an old building. It’s what’s called a “haveli” — typically an old mansion with a central courtyard you’ll find in many cities in India. So yes, there are some quirks like old doors or having to turn on a water heater and wait a few minutes before you take a shower. To me, this is all part of the experience. And the owners have done a great job with modernizing the building. I’m sure there’s a lot of regulations when it comes to making changes to a historic property, and I was a bit concerned at first when I walked into the room and found it hot — but let me tell you, that air conditioner is ice cold and blows like a tornado if you want it to. Yes, you’ll probably have to switch into a tuk-tuk with your luggage when you get close to the building, as the streets are quite narrow. I promise you, this is totally fine and normal. And yes, there’s no elevator, since this is an old building. But I was upstairs and it made no difference. There’s a guy there who’s very used to carrying bags up the steps. Oh, and one other thing (for those who’ve actually read this far) that view from the restaurant is everything it’s cracked up to be. The pictures are definitely accurate. Try getting that at the Marriott. And here’s the most surprising thing to me: When you hear that breakfast is free, you’re probably picturing a buffet or a “continental breakfast” of muffins. Here, “free breakfast” means “order whatever you want off the entire breakfast menu, and someone will cook it just for you.” I hope this place continues to be at the top on TripAdvisor. The location is perfect, the owners are kind and enthusiastic, and I had a wonderful stay. I hope anyone reading this will take my advice and just make the booking.

Excellent location close to fort, clock tower and local market. Hotel entrance opens to a small and attractive central courtyard. Room was spacious, beautifully decorated and immaculately clean. Breakfasts were delicious and served on rooftop with stunning views of Jodhpur and the fort. Staff were very brilliant and in Danish they have a top host, very kind and helpful in arranging local sightseeing trips. Absolutely top marks, thank you.

The place is worth for the view alone. It is quite close to fort and the meghrangarh fort cannot be viewed any better from anywhere. Everyone was friendly and absolutely trustworthy. Got lots of help with itinerary and travel booking. They also do some local walking tours (blue city tour, stepwell). Our schedule was tight and we couldnt opt for it. Rooms are clean, big with individual heater in the bathroom. The food at the restaurant was also quite good. We tried only Indian food.
