Originally built in 1888 , the Kothi Heritage is a modernized heritage home that not only offers economic stays but also culturally enriching ones. Despite renovations, it has kept true to its original aesthetics - a mix of British colonial and native Rajasthani.

The kothi's inception is credited to Bachraj Ji Singhvi, a council member and commander in Jodhpur. He also constructed Tripolia, a bustling bazaar for local handicrafts. Today, the hotel is owned and managed by the owners of Kraft Creations. The latter specialize in excellent local handicrafts and decor.

Design and Architecture

Having been built in the 19th century, The Kothi Heritage exemplifies the blend of colonial architecture and native Rajasthani styles. Examples of its well-preserved design can be seen in the jali-style trellis found around the property, the stained glass windows, and the intricate ventilators in every room.

The property's distinction as a kothi also makes it stand out from other heritage properties in the city. While havelis are meant to be a manor-like home for nobles, a kothi offers a much cozier environment where guests can easily feel at home.

Dining at The Kothi Heritage is an experience unto itself. Guests have three options on where they can relish Indian cuisine made with fresh ingredients. The rooftop terrace offers impressive views of the city that you can admire along with your meal. The garden has a refreshing and romantic ambiance that's perfect for couples enjoying each other's company. The hotel's royal dining hall is the main dining venue, featuring heritage decor and folk performances.

A memorable destination wedding doesn't always need to be a bombastic and ostentatious event. Travelers who prefer something deeply cultural yet low-key can hold their matrimonial ceremonies at The Kothi Heritage. As an outdoor venue, the heritage stay can accommodate 200 seated guests at the lawn and terraces. The hotel's restaurant can also be booked to provide catering service for the wedding. Special henna paintings called mehndi are an integral part of Indian weddings, and the hotel can arrange for these services as well.

Cultural Experiences

The Kothi Heritage is very much in touch with Jodhpur's cultural charm, offering a variety of enriching experiences in and around the Blue City. You can expect cultural entertainment at the hotel, like folk performances. The hosts can also arrange for walking tours if you want to sample what the city's shops and food stalls have to offer.

While you're here, don't miss out on beautiful Indian festivals, especially Holi and Diwali.
