Our stay at the Hotel Victoria (living fort in Jaisalmer ) was truly exceptional. The rooms were spotless, well-maintained, and offered breathtaking views of the golden city. The staff’s warm hospitality and attention to detail made us feel incredibly welcome. Being located within the historic fort added a unique charm, making it a memorable experience. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Jaisalmer!

When visiting Jaisalmer it is a MUST to choose a hotel within the Fort. The very best is Hotel Victoria, Room No. 2, because it has one of the very rare balconies (spacious enough for a couple in love) where you can pass the afternoon & evening hours, enjoying your dinner and/or a cold Kingfisher and watching the busy life down in the city. All the rooms are very cosy and individually furnished. The hotel staff, mostly young Nepali, is very friendly and helpful. English is well understood.

That's not about what we didn't like, but you should know that within the Fort you can't get NonVeg Food, in most places Brahman food which is not allowing onions & garlic. But be ensured the Veg food is very tasty. The roof top area could need an improved sun & rain protection.

We recommend the breakfast on the hotel roof: the pancakes are delicious!! The rooms are well decorated and very clean. A little noisy but we are in the heart of the city, that's normal. The hotel is very well located in the heart of the fort. And the transportation offered from the airport by taxi and then tuc tuc is super well organized. A real adventure in the small streets of the city.

nothing. it's perfect

Hotel staff is accomodative to resident needs- early breakfast packing for trip or luggage transfer from Fort to the hotel, desert trip arrangements. Naveen provides valuable tips, owner is always a call away for any questions. The ambience is like a temple - calm and enriching. The place is very well maintained. You feel welcomed. Highly recommend for family and couples.

This boutique hotel was a wonderful surprise. The location could not be better in the heart of the old Jaisalmer Fort. We paid extra for a room with private pillow-filled balcony overlooking the fort walls that was magical. Excellent breakfast served on the roof. Note that given location, hotel can only be served by rickshaw, not car.

We have stayed at Hotel Victoria before and we’re excited to return. Being able to sit on the roof and watch the sunset, eat great food, and have great service all inside the Fort walls is the best experience! Thanks to Navin for great service and a friendly smile

Nothing!

A balcony divan with a view to die for off a well-decorated room in a turret near the top of Jaisalmer Fort. Excellent food, helpful and attentive staff and good things to do and see nearby. Rajasthan doesn't get much better than this.

The very noisy festival on the street below for much of the first night was surprising, but this is India. An emailable map showing the precise drop-off/pick-up point outside the main gate would save confusion for out of town drivers.

Beautiful stylish historic property with great views over the city, a lovely terrace, beautiful room and lovely staff. Vegetarian food was also really delicious

Not a problem for us, but this hotel is not suitable for anyone with mobility issues

Great Place with friendly accommodating staff. The Fort is an awesome place to walk around. And the sunset views from the balcony are to die for. We enjoyed dinner and live music one evening on the balcony. The staff was very helpful allowing us to store our excess luggage while we were on a camel safari between nights at the Victoria.

- friendly and helpful staff, they stored our luggage while we were in the desert - complimentary tea, coffee, water throughout the day - clean room and bathroom

- breakfast was poor, only white bread, cornflakes and bananas - overall a little overpriced
