This Indian Boutique Hotel in Jodhpur Feels Like Your Friend’s Sumptuous Estate - Hotels Above Par - Boutique Hotels & Travel

"Set behind a plant-dappled barricade near Jodhpur’s famed blue buildings, this eight-room boutique hotel (including six suites) feels like staying in a private family home run by the Singh family, who frequently mingle with guests and share multi‑generation anecdotes — including a local legend that the estate was granted to an ancestor by the Maharajah in 1622 (reportedly in exchange for bravery and 84 villages). Lush, saturated greenery creates an oasis between the entrance, communal areas and buildings; interiors are decorated with painted portraits of women in red and yellow saris, animal scenes, floral motifs, homespun rugs and individually patterned headboards that give each room a spacious, personal character. An angular turquoise‑tiled pool framed by a colonnaded terrace, cream curtains, ceiling fans and mint‑green sunloungers is the property’s showpiece for afternoon relaxation. The tucked‑away, mirror‑lined restaurant showcases family recipes — the mutton curry with red chilis is a must‑order — and the hotel provides essentials like Wi‑Fi, air conditioning, laundry and a bar. Convenient for exploring nearby sights such as the blue lanes, Toorji Ka Jhaira, Mehrangarh Fort and Umaid Bhawan Palace, it suits travelers seeking a tasteful, homey boutique stay in Jodhpur; typical rates were listed around $199/night and the closest airport is Jodhpur (JDH)."
