Hotel Paradise  

Tucked inside the ramparts of Jaisalmer Fort in the historical district, just steps from Jain Temples, Bhatia Market, Patwon-ki-Haveli and Nathmalji-ki-Haveli. Easy access to Lake Gadisar and the desert beyond makes it a perfect base for fortress sightseeing and desert safaris.

Set in a 400-year-old wing of the Maharaja’s palace, rooms ring a shady garden courtyard framed by bougainvillea and open onto a rooftop terrace. The 22 individually decorated guestrooms feature fireplaces, private balconies and some even offer private plunge pools and desert or Garisar Lake views—cool in summer, sheltered in winter.

On-site restaurant and bar, an attached winery, massage room and hair salon keep things relaxed; free wired and wireless internet keeps you connected. Concierge and tour desk can arrange camel safaris, jeep excursions, transfers and tickets; free self-parking and an elevator are available—plus rooftop breakfasts with desert-sunrise views.

24-hour business center, express check-in/out and complimentary wired and wireless internet; in-room phones include free international calls.

Enjoy regional flavors at the on-site restaurant, grab snacks in the coffee shop/café or unwind at the bar/lounge. Daily complimentary receptions, 24-hour room service and a rooftop continental breakfast (available for a fee, typically served in the morning) round out the food options.
