Boasting beautiful views over Meherangarh Fort in the heart of the bustling walled city of Jodhpur, it would be hard to beat the chic address of RAAS Jodhpur, and location is paramount when exploring this vibrant city.
This 39-room modern luxury hotel consists of four charming and fully restored 150-year-old buildings - including various pavilions, stables, guard houses and a family temple- which have been built in Jodhpur’s very own ‘rose-red’ sandstone. Rooms are modern and minimalist with balconies with fort views.
There are two dining rooms serving the same menu of great Italian, Thai and Indian dishes. We especially like dining at the cushioned banquette and candle-lit table at rooftop Darikhana. There’s also an al fresco terraced café.
The lofty inner courtyard is home to gardens and a beautiful pool. The Serena Spa offers unique Ayurveda inspired Indian treatments, and the romantic Adam and Eve couple spa package is perfect for those on their honeymoon.

“This is the only boutique hotel inside the old town and the whole complex is overlooked by Mehrangarh, an awe-inspiring 15th century fort looming 400 feet above the Jodhpur skyline. When lit up in the evenings, the views are amazing and, like virtually every home here, almost every room in the hotel enjoys the most spectacular view of the fort. In the evenings, sip a drink beside the pool while gazing up at the towering ramparts.”
