am halfway through a trip of India, when I booked this place, it looked very nice in the photos, however when you arrive it's 100 times better, I got off a train from Amritsar for 12 hours to be met by the lovely Anand the driver for the hotel, dressed impeccably, I got to the car and he had a tray of cold drinks, now that's service. When i arrived to the Narendra Bhawan, I was welcomed by the amazing bugler Manoj Rana dressed in his awesome attire, I was whisked to the lounge area and given a welcome drink and snack. I have stayed in lots of nice hotels and this truly is up there on first impressions, the impressive hospitality continued, when I saw my room, a prince room I was amazed.
When I said to one of the very helpful staff this hotel is beautiful, he said, don't think of it as a hotel but a home, that really resonated with me. They even have two golden retriever dogs called bugsy and Toby, which I found amazing as a dog lover myself.
As a solo traveler I felt safe and comfortable here. In the end I decided not to do any tourist stuff in Bikaner and rather take time out to relax in the hotel, which I think was the best idea. Unfortunately I leave tomorrow for Jaislamer and have to leave this wonderful oasis of calm, as I sit on the rooftop pool area and drink my masala chai watching the sunset, I know I made the right choice for hotels in Bikaner, if your considering staying here, do not over think, just do it, life is too short to stay in bad hotels.
