Raas - Jodhpur |
 |
RAAS is Jodhpur's first
boutique hotel. Our signature look was born from the
fusion of modern and ancient styles and the courtyard
has become a tranquil haven away from the bustle of
Jodhpur’s old town.
The hotel comprises four original buildings with three
additional contemporary structures, influenced by and
contributing to its cultural past as part of the
Walled City. The new buildings are modern and
contemporary in their use of space and light; and yet
grounded in tradition. Indeed, each of its structures
is adorned with intricate architectural carvings in
the iconic Haveli style of the 18th century,
juxtaposed against modern designs and patterns.
Jodhpur's red sand-stone unites the new with the old,
as modern designs add an exciting and fresh dimension
to the region's age-old stone carving industry. The
magnificent pol, along with the staff quarters and
guardhouse, makes a stunning entry to the hotel.
The whole complex is overlooked by Mehrangarh, an
awe-inspiring 15th century fort looming 400 feet above
the Jodhpur skyline. When lit up in the evenings, the
views are simply breathtaking and, like virtually
every home here, almost every room in the hotel enjoys
the most spectacular view of the fort, rated in 2008
by Time Magazine as "Asia's Best Fortress".

Accommodation comprises 39 rooms, 7 of which are
suites with separate sitting rooms, larger balconies
and bathrooms, 35 rooms have views of the Mehrangarh
Fort and the remaining 4 rooms have private gardens
overlooking the old, restored building
All rooms and suites have balconies and are decorated

understated and make the most of Jodhpur’s pink
sandstone, stunning black terrazzo and with splashes
of ‘Jodhpur blue”. The are state of the art and
furnished to an exceptionally high degree of modern
comfort and shophistcation Light, space and clean
lines are the bywords here.
All the rooms are air-conditioned (centrally heated in
