Very different experience in this haveli. It really changes Different rooms at different prices the one we had was ok, some other looked really nice but not on our budget! Staff really friendly! more

Whether this hotel is for you depends on what you are looking for. First, remember that this is more "paying guest house" than "hotel" - you are sharing a building vey intimately with a family that live in the central portions of the building. The building is histroic no doubt, but in desperate need of renovation work. We had the... more

Was for sure a different experience, we stayed in the best room of the hotel with incredible old paintings covering the walls and pillars, the windows had no glass so a net is essential, it is a great hotel to experience life in a Haveli, but not if you want the confort of a normal hotel, it does not have... more

We found Hotel Suraj on several traveler forums. Reviews had been indifferent but when we saw the we decided to take the risk. We had to stay in that hotel.

The owner's family are all very hospitable and helpful. The rooms are bigger than average and have some very interesting details that only a 500 year old haveli could have. It was... more

I stayed at Hotel Suraj for 2 nights after having only been in India, my first time, for a few days. I cannot recommend the hotel enough for an authentic experience of Jaisalmer. It was such a wonderful experience to be able to stay in this beautiful haveli which encapsulated the romantic fort town so perfectly. The rooms are stunning... more

My wife and I enjoyed four nights in this completely original and authentic stone haveli within Jaisalmer fort. Rooms are marvellously decorated, and the external stonework is wonderful. It is probably one of the most unusual hotels you will ever stay in, with hand-painted designs on the walls, sculpted arches, wall niches, original ancient wood doors. The view from the... more
