The guest rooms we stayed at are a little cramped, and dark (…but opened on to a lovely terrace)

I am not aware of there being much to see in or around Gajner. It is however at the approximate half-way point if you are driving from Ajmer/Pushkar to Jaisalmer and that is the reason we made the stop. It turned out to be a highlight of a several day trip. The property with its gardens and courtyards are stunningly beautiful, peaceful, meticulously maintained and visited by all sorts of wildlife. The staff was courteous and helpful and delicious meals were served with professionalism.

An absolute Heaven of peace and quietness away for the City buzz. Feels like having a secret safe heaven where to recharge. If you enjoy reading books while sipping tea in a relaxed atmosphere, give it a go, you will only regret having to leave !

Bathroom and general cleanliness in the common areas there were spider webs in the lobby just outside our room

Location and property was good

Stayed in January 2024

the bedding is not up to standard, very poor wifi connection. Lots of mosquitoes, bring repellents. Breakfast could be improved.

I came there 12 years ago, and in 12 years nothing has changed... it's a pity. It nevertheless remains a great place to spend a peaceful night.

Nothing in particular. one or two more eateries would have been better. some sports facilities need be installed.

Its a paradise i desert like an oasis. we enjoyed our stay. witnessing setting sun in the lake itself is extremely beautiful.

There's nothing else in the vicinity. So you have to consume food at the hotel restaurant which is fairly good but it can get monotonous eventually. Wifi is patchy at best. The location is a bit far off (which is the point really) and that makes finding taxis from Bikaner a bit costly. May be they could consider doing a daily shuttle to and fro from Bikaner The staff could smile a bit more

Gajner Palace was the hunting oasis of the Maharaja(s) of Thar Desert and rightfully so. We went in the rains/monsoons and the greenery, the trees, the birds chirping, the peacocks dancing, and the blackbucks jumping away in the adjacent wildlife sanctuary - it all just takes your breath away. Its a great place to escape into nature if the weather is right.

Food, Staff behaviour and ambience

Stayed in February 2023

Bathtube very worn and dirty, food and drinks a little too expensive compared to other 5 stars in India.

Super hotel, fantasy location, gardens and rooms, a place to remember for a lifetime.

Stayed in September 2022

staff is not so courteous and looked rude specially at front desk. food n beverages are super costly and had limited options in breakfast menu. no pool is one more minus.

I think it’s royal and heritage status attract people to visit this place. May be location too. dinner was delicious and I absolutely loved it.

We asked for water bottles in the room which never came not even after asking for them 3 times. That was veey disappointing. Also the room service food didnt meet the expectations.

The place is beautiful very nicely loacted amd majestic. They also put us in the best rooms (suites) overlooking the lake. The centrally heated water was a welcome comfort.

Outside the windows you could see cobwebs. I understand it’s a historic suite we stayed in, but definitely it could be better cleaned. Inside of room was clean though. Towels were bit old overused as well.

We loved food. They have amazing chef and very courteous staff. This is expansive beautiful property with lots of trees, birds, peacocks, but still has a very cozy romantic feel. Views of lake beside property are very serene.

Cobwebs around the bathroom doors Water in the bath tub was dirty

Bedroom linen was very clean Room was spacious & comfortable Amenities in room were effective Restaurant service was great

The property is run down, needs proper maintenance. Rooms 120, 121 were having foul smell, the sewage system needs complete overhaul. Cleaning of benches, chairs etc were not satisfactory at all. Management attention is required to up keep and proper cleanliness.

The location is superb and well spread over property.

Stayed in February 2024

Food was not upto the mark, limited buffet and everything tasted sub- standard quality but highly priced.

Nice offbeat location, heritage style

Maintenance of the property is not up to the mark

Property location is great

Stayed in November 2023

The hospitality and warmth was totally missing. The property is just out there to make money, wherein they are tagging high prices on everything and not equating it to services. The room service was too slow or not there. The hotel was poorly staffed. Once we were there in billiards room, no one came for half an hour to even ask water. The staff is just there to look after foreigners Also the room was not cleaned as two pouches of u finished gutka packets were found in the room post check in. The stewards in the restaurant didn't knew whether we were authorised free breakfast or not and because of their I'll knowledge we had to pay for food items which we in all cases wouldn't have ordered had they not said about complimentary breakfast. Just making money to the extent howsoever it comes. Will just advise everyone not to stay there but just to have food only. Very poor show

Food was delicious

Amazing property!! A palace for the kings 👑 now available for common public. A private pristine lake and palace with lots of trees. You get the feeling of being in hill station even in hot weather of august. A perfect relaxing holiday.

The place, the lake, the birds, the staff, the food... excellent

Old world colonial charm and legacy. Get the room with lake view. Stunning is the only word that comes to mind. Thousands of water birds (including damoiselle cranes from Siberia) and parakeets; their chirps will wake you up in the morning and their plaintive horn will lull you to sleep at night. The size of the bathroom alone is the size of an average hotel room in the US. They have local musicians and dancer perform for you the evening. The scenery and the palatial compound are breathtaking.

Stayed in December 2022

Hospitality was poor, gulab nivas was alloted to us...which was pathetic, there were big cocroach in the blanket. Bathroom was horrible, everything was broken and towels were not clean. Hospitality has changed a lot as v had visited the property 17 years ago

V like only food.. but .it was too expensive. Location is good .
