Hotel Raas Jodhpur

The magnificent fortress in the Walled City, surrounded by Mehrangarh's Victory Gate and Palace and a few distance away from Clock Tower, RAAS was originally built in the 18^th century. The royal Fortress consisted of four attractive buildings using Jodhpur’s 'rose-red' sandstone. The first building was the trademark of superior Rajput Architecture and it existed as the private residence of the Royal family. The building that was built at the last, served as the entertainment zone for the Thakurs. Apart from these two, the building complex also consisted of Dari-Khana, the Chamber of Carpets, which was used to accommodate the Royal guests of the Thakurs, a tiny Temple and the horse Stables.
