Reviews and Ratings
Ratan Palace offers spacious rooms and excellent service from the owner, who really goes out of their way to help guests. While I appreciated the owner's efforts and the clean sheets, I had some issues with the hot water availability and Wi-Fi connection. The overall ambiance felt a bit too casual for a hotel, akin to a local residence. It's a decent option for a short stay, but there are definitely areas that could use improvement.
Ratan Palace offered a great stay overall with spacious and clean rooms, a stunning view of the fort, and truly helpful service from Mr. Purohit. However, I did face some issues with hot water availability and Wi-Fi connection during my stay. Nevertheless, it still felt like fantastic value for money, especially with the excellent food and the free pickup service.
The hotel experience was mixed; while the owner was incredibly accommodating and ensured we had a pleasant late dinner, the room had several drawbacks including a lack of hot water and poor Wi-Fi. The staff were eager to assist, but the overall facilities felt more basic. It served its purpose as a place to rest after our desert adventures but would benefit greatly from improvements in cleanliness and amenities.
I had a lovely experience at Ratan Palace. The owner went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay, including a late-night pick-up when we arrived. The room was clean and spacious, making it a comfortable retreat after a day of exploring. However, some rooms could use better airflow. Overall, it felt like great value for money, especially with the service and safari arrangements they provided.
