Mandore Guest House

Rooms are arranged around a sweet garden, clean and comfortable. The breakfast is nothing to write home about, and the service a little surly. However, the story of the owner at the front desk more than makes up for his demeanour: the hotel is his vehicle to help impoverished rural families, both through use of profits and facilitating volunteer work assignments. Our dinner was very tasty, well-priced, and very memorable under a tree in the courtyard! Two large fires with seating around each provided beautiful settings for evening relaxation.

Firstly this property is outside of Jodhpur city proper which has its pluses and minuses. The surrounding area didn’t seem very appealing so it really made this place seem like a private oasis. The gardens are pretty with lots of area to explore and little nooks and seating areas to relax at. I believe the restaurant within the property is vegetarian only. Having said that, as a meat eater I loved their food there. Major con for us was that the bed was quite firm, we slept okay so it wasn’t that problematic but be prepared for very little give and comfort
