My ratings
I stayed in the Hotel ‘1st Gate Home Fusion‘, Jaisalmer during the month of March,16. Based on my experience I rate this hotel 4.9 out of 5.
Why did I book this hotel
The main reason to book this hotel was its location and guest reviews. It is located adjacent to the Jaisalmer fort, which is the main tourist attraction in the city. The main bazaar of Jaisalmer city is just a stone’s throw away. So, it was very convenient to go for a walk inside the fort and bazaar.
My experience
After landing at the Jodhpur airport, I approached a taxi driver to take me to Jaisalmer. The distance between both the cities is around 300 kilometres. On the way, when I informed my driver about my booking at ‘Hotel 1st Gate Home Fusion’, he immediately recognised it. I was surprised by the popularity of the hotel, despite the uncommonness in its name. (Even while writing this review, I had to check my booking history to recall the name :D).

I stayed in this hotel for 2 nights and it seemed the hotel was just flawless. Welcoming with garland was something I experienced for the first time. I was given a room on its first floor. Rooms were clean and well decorated with vintage styled bathrooms. Bed was comfortable. The best part was the food I had for dinner and breakfast. Their rooftop restaurant gave an out of the world experience of dining with views of Jaisalmer fort and city with the exotic music played in the background. Breakfast choices were limited, however food served was best in taste. I am happy that I had the best ‘Poha’ of my life in this property.
