“All in all a good (quirky!) stay notwithstanding a few hiccups.”
+Jagat Palace is a beautiful heritage building filled with old furniture and bric a brac. The stuff in my room looked as old as the hotel; not especially to my taste, but it suited the building and it was comfortable. It was nice having a fridge in there. Food service was a bit unconventional (staff member asleep on the floor first day, buffet the second day which they were still setting up at 9am when I’d finished, super organised on the third day…..) but the quality was pretty decent. I also ate in the restaurant one evening. Only me there but the food was excellent. The jewel in the hotel’s crown is undoubtedly the gardens and pool, even though the guy in charge of the pool towels is always asleep. And it’s a bit annoying (but amusing) having to compete with the local monkeys for access to the pool. There’s another staff member employed to get rid of them with his catapult, but he has a habit of going awol at the critical moment.
−The electrics were old, and the aircon looked (and sounded) like a 1960s relic but it worked ok. I had a few issues during my stay - no hot water on the first night, a leaking bath, wi-fi dropping out, tv remote not working - but the staff sorted everything out (eventually!)

−The hotel is in a beautiful historic building, but unfortunately its facilities are also somewhat historic. Some modernization would help.

+Felt like we had the palace to ourselves. Very beautiful gardens and pool.
−Air conditioning needs replacing - it looks about 50 years old and is far too noisy to sleep with. Luckily it was pleasant enough with the windows open and the fan on.

+The room was spacious, the bathroom was large, and the hotel had a beautiful palace-like feel. With a little more attention to maintenance, the overall experience could be even better.
−Upgrading the ceiling fans and providing a few additional charging points would significantly improve the overall comfort. While the bathtub was a pleasant feature, standing in it to use the shower felt slightly unstable and could be made safer and more user friendly.

“Ok for a short stay.”
+Conveniently located, safe location. The staff was friendly and kind. A well maintained historic building.
−It’s quite noisy - lots of music, fireworks and traffic noise from the town, monkeys galloping heavily on the roof at all hours. There was a temple in the middle of the hotel with chanting for a special ceremony throughout the day, and many priests in the courtyard.

“Quiet location and magnificent building”
+The buildings and gardens are lovely and quiet. The room is comfortable and the balcony is very pleasant. The staff is smiling and nice. It is walkable distance or a short tuktuk ride from the city center.
−The diner at the restaurant was disappointed but the breakfast was large and delicious( even with no eggs😅).
