Amazing heritage home converted into a Cafe and hostel. Authentic Rajasthani food as well as some fast food options available. Had Gatta curry with Missi and bajra roti. Finger licking good food made to suit our non spicy palette. View from their terrace is amazing. Seating area and ambience adds to the feel good holiday spirit.

The Desert Boy's Guesthouse is located within the Jaisalmer Fort. You can see the sunrise and the ancient city of The Desert Boy's Guesthouse is located within the Jaisalmer Fort. Fine antique furniture, rich silks, warm carpets and comfortable mattresses and amazing view. Pure vegetarian hotel and restaurant. Good customer service and quality. Food is delicious but costly. Jain cuisine is also offered.

Absolutely beautiful cafe with amazing staff. Do visit this place during sunset. It's situated inside Jaisalmer fort and the vibe is just stunning.

Located inside the fort, this cafe offers one of the best views of the city. The food is good. It’s usually packed so service might be slow but mind you, they would give preference to larger groups and/or foreigners first. Good place to sit and relax if you get tired of walking around in the streets for the fort.

Nice joint with excellent location. We enjoyed our time a lot and service was also fair. You can view illuminated fort walls in eve and daytime rush from seating areas. Live folk music wasnt very good the mark but it complimented the ambience
