Excellent all the way
From the moment we checked in we were made to feel welcome by the family. We were made to feel welcome and nothing was too much trouble. Lots of private areas on their lovely balconies to relax and admire the views, oh and night eat their home cooked food too.

It is a great place to stay. Hosts were extremely helpful and supportive of travelers. The location was good too. Food was cooked in their home kitchen and was Amazing/true to culture. Some amenities in the room were not so good ( fan/shower wasn't working, windows couldn't be opened) Overall, it's value for money.

Fantastic location for those wanting to discover the old jodhpur city. Well done up rooms with modern bathrooms. Manish the owner and the lady looking after the hotel were very warm and hospitable.Only autos and rickshaws can go into the lanes. Charming place if that is the experience you're looking for.

Great location great stay
Checking in process can be a bit long but that’s just government requirement. Rooms were clean and spacious just like on their photos. Internet was a little bit of a pain, never seemed to work in our room but worked everywhere else otherwise. We had breakfast which was really nice, the terrace offered a great view of the fort. The guesthouse offered to change us money they gave a decent rate however Balaji tour behind the clock tower beats everybody in town. Check out was made simple no hidden charges and helped us contact our taxi driver. Overall great stay great location friendly people, tasty food offered, I would stay again and recommend them to anyone. Unless you can’t do the steps give them a go.

Only for real low budget travellers
Unfortunately, we didn't have a great experience at the Blue Hotel. When we arrived they didn't have our booking or had double-booked us (they didn't tell us which, we were just kept waiting for ages). Either way they eventually checked us in to a cheaper room and then tried to pretend that it was the level we'd booked. It was easy to prove otherwise as plenty of pics online so then they offered to upgrade us to their 'suite' for one night (and then we'd have to move again for our second night). In my opinion this should have been the first course of action, but no matter ... The 'suite' was a windowless room not much larger than the last and though the bathroom and bedroom floor were clean, the bottom bedsheet was not. The pillow cases were torn and a bit grimy, walls unclean, no top sheet was provided to sleep under. If I was backpacking on a tight budget and had my own sleeping sheet bag I might have just sucked it up, (the tiny room we were first given looked cleaner) but as it was we left as soon as we could and found somewhere else for our second night. It was v cheap, but I value cleanliness, and natural light, (not to mention honesty) these days.

Mediocre Hotel and highly overpriced for no reason
Very bad experience. The hotel is extremely overpriced against the rooms and services provided. The owner is highly cunning and he tries to con one with his sweet words so beware. The rooms are mediocre and dirty especially the bathrooms. There was no hot water only a electric heater which provides hot water only for 2-3 minutes. This was a terrible experience since we were traveling in the month of December with extremely cold temperatures. Towels provided were unclean and smelly. Overall the room was highly over expensive at least 2-3 times more than the kind of room provided. On the spot, we saw one similar hotel at rates less than half than this one and in better condition than this. I had paid online prior to check in thus decided to continue. At the time of check out owner tried to take 500 INR more from us saying taxes are not included whereas Expedia booking clearly said they were included. I had to waste my 20 minutes to make him understand the thing which was clearly written on Expedia booking print out. I could have missed my train if he would have continued to argue. Please beware of all the charges that you are supposed to pay else owner is kinda over-smart in that case. Not recommended. You can get better and cheaper options than this one for sure.

Interesting surrounds in toxic air
The family was very helpful in giving directions and in organising a tour to the Bishnoi Village. Their restaurant closeby-Jhantar has good food. It is close to the markets and the fort can be walked from here. However the bed and pillows were very hard and there was no hot water in our room even though we followed the hot water heater instructions. We reported it but still it was not fixed. Be warned - the air in the alleyways is pretty bad and made my husband and I feel unwell with sore throat, headache and runny eyes. It gets worse between 4 and 7 when we did not go out. Waiting for Jodhpur to introduce LPG and electric rickshaws like Jaipur has done.

No nonsense family run stay
A Great choice for people wanting to explore the local culture through cities old neighbourhoods. Run by a local family, this place is at best a no nonsense, essential comfortable stay. If you don't have a problem climbing four steep floors of steps twice or thrice a day, ask for the rooms on the restaurant level. You have a great view of the Fort from there.

Delightful Experience
What a jewel!! My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights and we felt at home from the moment we arrived. Our host welcomed us inside, served us a delicious welcome chai, and booked us a camel safari before we even finished checking in. The hotel and our room were delightfully decorated, even though some renovation was going on, leaving everything a bit dusty and giving us some occasional power/internet issues. Overall, though, minor inconveniences. Our host was wonderful and we will definitely stay there again!

Avoid the renovations!
This hotel looks lovely and the rooms themselves are nice, but we arrived during a period of construction. The restaurant was a building site and several of the rooms were being painted. Having booked the hotel based on the communal space available we were pretty disappointed. The smell of paint was everywhere and construction items were scattered across all floors. I would recommend checking if the repairs have finished before booking - no discounts were offered despite the mess the hotel was in!

Quirky fun place to stay
Beautiful old haveli eccentrically converted into travellers hotel. Very charming family run the place which is on many levels. Decor a wild mix of antique and modern. Fascinating and funky, very good value and well located in the Old City.
