Devi Bhawan

Devi Bhawan was established in 1916, originally as a part of the residence that belonged to Thakur Ratan Singh. Since the property was built during the British Colonial Era, it bears a unique design that stands out from many of Jodhpur's heritage buildings. As a boutique hotel, Devi Bhawan has been in service for over 20 years, providing a lush garden oasis in the desert city of Jodhpur. While the hotel is indeed a slice of paradise, it also encourages visitors and travelers to explore and discover the Blue City, imparting Jodhpur's heritage through its architecture and artworks on display, but through lived experiences.

Since it was built during the British Colonial Period, Devi Bhawan expresses a distinct fusion of traditional Jodhpur architecture with Western design conventions. Much like the rest of the city, Devi Bhawan was made using the iconic red sandstone abundant in this part of the Thar Desert. The beautiful stonework and verdant garden further elicit the refined atmosphere of this former noble residence's glorious past. Guests will find themselves leisurely strolling along the fountains and flowers of the estate, and relaxing at one of the tables while enjoying a cup of tea.

Complementing the architecture are classical carved woodworks found on the doors and furniture of the hotel. These intricate works and patterns have graced the homes of Jodhpur for centuries, including the halls and guestrooms of Devi Bhawan.

Guests staying at Devi Bhawan are in for a culinary treat. Their on-site restaurant has menus featuring Rajasthani and Jodhpur delicacies, alongside popular Indian and continental items. These lovely dishes can be served indoors in the dining room, or enjoyed outside in the garden. For mornings, breakfasts are served in continental and buffet options, ensuring a delightful and energizing start for the day.

Cultural and Outdoor Experiences

Devi Bhawan can arrange a selection of exciting and memorable excursions and encounters for those who would love to learn all about Jodhpur. The hosts can arrange for walking tours that will take you to the Blue City's historic neighborhoods and bazaars. If you'd like to explore on your own, they can also provide rental bikes for a surcharge. You can also sign up for village safaris, where you can get a first-hand encounter with the native communities and discover their livelihoods and arts.

In between trips, guests can unwind with a personalized massage service, or cool off with a dip in the outdoor swimming pool.

Other Celebrations

Although Devi Bhawan does not have venues, their restaurant does have tables situated in potentially intimate settings. You should go ahead and inquire about a private dinner if you'd like to celebrate a birthday or anniversary during your stay. An alternative is that they may instead refer or recommend you to a partner establishment nearby that can provide the personalized service you're looking for.
