Lakeside Inn Ratanada

Decent location with good service and good quality meals.

Lakeside Inn Ratanada is a very good budget hotel centrally located in Jodhpur. We had booked one Deluxe room for my family of three after talking to the owner directly a few days before our arrival in the city. I would say that everything (the furnishings and the décor) in the hotel turned out to be pretty much the way it looked in pictures that were shared beforehand. The entrance to the hotel is right on the main road close to a roundabout and next to many stores. It is unlike we had been to before and were a bit surprised at first. As soon as we entered the main door, our thoughts started turning positive quickly and the kind gentleman at the reception started with the check-in process. A staff member helped us with unloading the luggage and taking it up to our room by the elevator. Our room on the 2nd floor was spacious enough and as per the discussions with the owner, it had a Ratanada lake facing view which was unexpectedly enchanting. The furniture in the room included chairs with a center table, cupboard, side tables with the bed, a LCD TV with plenty of channels, a desk and storage for luggage, air conditioner, a mini fridge, and a kettle for tea. We were traveling with good amount of luggage but were able to fit it all in the room without much inconvenience. We had a comfortable king size bed and an extra mattress provided in the night for the third person, which also afforded a good sleep. A couple of drinking water bottles and a plate of cookies was also provided, which is a small thing but makes the hospitality standout for a hotel of this category. Even the towels in the room were arranged in the form of two swans facing each other giving a romantic feel to the whole welcome. Our hearts were filled with joy at these beautiful and thoughtful extras. The lake and its surroundings are well maintained and there is a water jet in the center of the lake that was operational from the time we reached in the evening until late at night. In the night, we were pleasantly surprised to see the musical fountain also working and we could enjoy it all from the comfort of our bed. The view from the room definitely made this room and the hotel a very good choice. The hotel doesn’t have a car parking and the vehicle needs to be parked in front of the hotel entrance on the side of the main road. Not a big concern as the neighborhood seemed relatively less crowded and the roads are very wide at this location. Breakfast was included in the room price we paid. Breakfast variety is good and delicious. There’s the regular white bread with jam and butter, juice, tea, some fruit, and some Indian dishes, such as poori bhaaji, parathas, etc. The breakfast is served on the first floor in a large setting with comfortable chairs and tables. The bathroom is modern and of good size. The hotel provides some toiletries like tooth brushes, comb, soaps and shampoos. The rooftop of the hotel was under construction during our stay but the owner gave us a tour of i

One of the best place to stay near market road pros: 1. Neat and clean rooms with all basic toiletries 2. Bedsheets, quilt, towels were very clean 3. Good breakfast with upma, poori, sandwich, omelet, etc 4. View of the lake (though the lake is dirty) 5. Good service, checkin experience cons: 1. Street parking only

Location was excellent, food was average and staff was very courteous. The rooms was quiet small for 3 of us

Excellent hotel location and service. We stayed in this hotel for 3 days. The location of the hotel was excellent. All the major places were just 10-15 min away. Liked the service and food. Food was tasty and at very nominal prices. The lake side view of our room was also wonderful. Overall excellent value for money.

Room was good and clean. More lights could be added to make it bit brighter. Service and food was excellent. Location very good and convenient.

Affordable room and good service. The room was good enough if you are travel-ling solo. Should've been more cleaned as a suggestion

I stayed with my family. And enjoyed it. Specially the fountain while having lunch and dinner. Awesome stay

Location of the hotel is nice, food was also good, and the staff was polite. Clean and well maintained properly
