Jaisalmer: Shahi Palace Hotel Review on Tripadvisor
There’s a heart that exists in India- its here! My stay at Shahi Palace, Jaisalmer was one of my best memories of India and its heart. It’s not only about experiencing the desert calm (and Shahi’s wonderful camel safari to the Thar Desert w/ the “Camel Man”) but its truly about the people and the friendships that you make along the way. The “Shahi Family” really extends their heart and understanding to you and shapes your experience of Jaisalmer and India, in such a positive way.
BEFORE I got there, my trip was going in a WRONG direction (some of us got suckered into a SCAM tour in Delhi). Shahi Palace was my original choice of stay and I’m glad I stayed there, despite tour plans. The Shahi folks brought me under their wing and helped me turn my trip around and put it back on the right track! They were amazing- honest, concerned, helpful, passionate & full of heart. They were very generous with their time & resources. I TRUST these guys- they are GOOD people with the BEST intentions.
The rest is the cherry on top: The rooms were fashionably stylish (coming from NYC & being a bit of snob, I wonder why can’t more hotels in India take note & hire Shahi’s interior designer?), clean & cozy. It was truly an oasis of peace – the food was great and rooftop view was breathtaking. I wish I got to spend more time in Jaisalmer – i look forward to returning to this desert oasis on my next trip! Thanks to my new friends- you guys rock!
