Hotel RAAS, Jodhpur

In Jodhpur, we stayed at Hotel RAAS, with a rather magnificent view of Mehrangarh Fort.

It was rather gorgeously lit up at night (JD had a good play with the colour balance, or something, to make this work)

The restaurant (middle ground) served some very good curries (the recipe for Bhuna Gosht is here), but was a little chilly at night (there are no walls in the dining area, even inside). Nothing a warm shawl and brazier can't fix!

The boys tried having a swim in the afternoon, but very quickly decided it was way way too cold.

Oh, and the rooms weren't bad either - spacious, with a huge bathroom, complete with shuttered screen (like the marble screens seen elsewhere) beside the huge bath.

And, even better, they had good in-room wifi!
