Greatly built but one of the most horribly managed hotel I have seen in all of Rajasthan or anywhere for that matter.You can see the beauty of the place, but the people, god forbid. None of their staff has the basic manners that one would expect of people in the 'hospitality' industry. Oh well if you are a tourists with dollars in your pocket, you get a very different treatment, hey but if you are from home country you are a nonety. That's the message you will find from the actions, attitudes of this hotel's staff. Right from asking Indian patrons to vacate a table that they have occupied because they are expecting foreign tourists (Yes they tried that with me, ofcourse which I gave back to them with equal bang) to serving you navratna dal instead of the makhani that you have ordered(which was over as they claimed) without even bothering to tell you so, they are just capable of every rude thing that hospitality business should keep miles away from.

GadiSagar Lake Jaiselmer
The GadiSagar Lake is a manmade rain water reservoir in Jaiselmer. Created by the first Raja Jaisal of Jaiselmer this was the only source of water for Jaiselmer in the old days. Beautifully carved yellow sand stone temples, chatris surrond the Gadi Sagar Lake. One can just imagine the romance of an evening on this charti surrounded by water and lighted by a hundred diyas.

Patwon ki Haveli
Located on a narrow lane in the main Jaisalmer city, Patwon ki haveli was constructed by Guman Chand Patwa and his five sons. Guman Chand was a famous trader of his times and dealt in gold, brocade and silver.
What you see in this image just a 5th part of the complete Haveli. The entire Haveli has 5 such sections, for each of Guman Chand's 5 sons. It is believed that it took about a 50 years to complete the construction of the entire haveli.

Rang Mahal
Palace ?
Yes it was once a palace, but now it has been converted to a hotel. One of the favorite tourist hotel in Rajasthan, is the Rang Mahal in Jaiselmer.We were unfortunate to be booked into the hotel adjoining this one.
