Baijoo Niwas

Outstanding stay. I could not fault the hotel, it’s a hidden gem. Staff are attentive and very happy to assist. The property is full of character and always spotlessly clean. The food is amazing. Only a short walk to the clock tower (less than 10 minutes) and feels perfectly safe. Would definitely recommend.

This place is marvellous. The owner Anshuman Pivas is very hands on and attentive. Thank goodness for that as my family arrived with fairly bad gastro and they were marvellous at helping get us back on our feet. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The bathrooms clean and ample hot water and the beds were comfortable. The rooftop terrace a feature of many Jodpur venues is superb. We loved our time here but it’s shame we were under the weather. Throughly recommend this place. Location also good for easy access to the Old Town.

Pros: Convenient location (check note 1 below), decent food, clean rooms, quiet stay Cons: Behaviour pattern of the staff can be erratic. (Check note 2 below) Note 1: The location is very close to the railway station, but can be tricky to find. Google maps can make you go in circles. If you are using a train, you can get out of the train station and take a right turn from outside platform 1. Walk to the Sojati square, which is about a 10 minute walk. You will pass Janta sweet home ***** the way. Then from the square, you need to take a left turn into the road adjacent to the one you came from. Note that this is not a 90 degree turn. After this you can find Baijoo Niwas towards your right in the lane. You can walk up to Mehrangarh fort and other places from this hotel. Note 2: The owner was kind enough to upgrade our room to a bigger one for the same price due to availability. While the staff working there was not outrightly rude or disrespectful, their behaviour came across as cold and indifferent at times, and made us feel we are not fully welcome. It is a heritage boutique hotel, so maybe the hospitality expected from a large hotel cannot be replicated here fully.

The hotel offers well-maintained rooms and exceptional service, with staff and management always eager to assist guests. Located on the prime Market Road, it provides easy access to all areas of the city, with local transportation available throughout the day. The hotel also boasts a top-notch kitchen, serving made-to-order dishes. Overall, it stands out as one of the best places to stay in Jodhpur.
