Hotel Fifu — Hotel in Rajasthan

Fifu, his son Anirudh and his nephew Antriksh are a nice bunch of people to talk to and have lots of information on Jaisalmer. They are also very helpful and gave us an early check-in. The hotel is neat and clean. However, when it comes to execution the hotel falls short. What I am going to mention are addressable problems and can be sorted out with better processes in place. I have two instances of inconvenience during my stay there. There is a pick up service by the hotel and I had asked for it as we were reaching early morning and I didn't want to go searching for it with my family by my side. Despite a few emails and phone calls with Anirudh over 6 days prior to arrival including a phone call evening before, I had to call him up several times after reaching and spend a harrowing time waiting for the pick up. Anirudh had mentioned he will share the phone number of the driver in the evening itself but it never happened. This could have been easily managed better. The hotel has a backup which has to be switched on manually. Jaisalmer can be torrid even in October (around 40°C) and a power cut for 30 mins can leave you dripping in sweat. At night, there were 2 power cuts and I had to go wake up the hotel staff to start the genie. Since the intercom never worked, I had to get down the staircase twice in the middle of the night to do this. Food is good but for the room tariff, exclusive of breakfast, it's not...

A smooth pick-up from the airport, a welcome drink (the masala chai was delicious!), a rooftop view of the Jaisalmer Fort (my wife was so comfortable that she took a nap on the couch), and our... The room we stayed in had a very tasteful emerald green lamp that was unified with conceptual colors and vintage Indian furniture, the friendliness of the guide and driver to the camel safari base (Kabir...I hope to see you again!), the personality of the staff, In particular, the owner, Fifu, had the warmest and kindest personality.|| I am a player of a musical instrument called morchan (Indian), which is a folk instrument that is passed down among the people living in the deserts of Rajasthan. The owner, who is very knowledgeable about the culture of Rajasthan, was impressed and taught us about the desert and history in an easy-to-understand way, and even arranged for us to participate in the camel safari dinner show. thank you very much.| All of the meals at the hotel were carefully prepared with well-managed ingredients. We especially recommend the Fifu Special Thali, which is a masterpiece with a beautiful combination of ingredients! Masala chai too!|| I will definitely visit again. We love HOTEL ᖴifu. It was a memory I will...

Hotel fifu is located a bit out of town , however its not a deserted place as other good hotels are also located in the same lane. 10 mins drive from railway station. However the location is very dusty.||Rooms are bit small comapred to what they are charging,. If two adults and one child goes in the room it may feel a bit congested. Bathrooms very small, almost no space for changing clothes. Balcony almost non exixtent.||Roof top restaurant has a breath taking view of the fort however since it’s a three side open one it gets really cold during breakfast and dinner time during winter season and having food in that temperature is very difficult. Food is good and tasty. Breakfast buffet is limited and repeatative.||The hotel arranges camel and Jeep safari in the desert at an additional cost. For local sightseeing you can hire any auto from outside the hotel for a full for around Rs. 1000 in peak season time.||Overall if you are looking for a good budget stay you can peak this hotel, however if you are looking for luxury options choose other properties right besides this hotel, and there are...
