Om Heritage Hotel

Our hotel is right by the Fort at Bagar Chowk in Jodhpur. It’s an old place, as you can see from the walls and the way the rooms are laid out. We are near Ladnu Haveli, which is a landmark most people know. Being in the old part of the city means the streets are narrow and crowded with bikes and cows. It gets very hot in the summer, so we spend a lot of time making sure the water is cold and the fans are spinning. The building has been around a long time. It has these thick stone walls that keep some of the heat out. We aren't one of those big modern hotels with glass elevators. We are just a family-run spot where you can stay if you want to be close to the Fort. In the mornings, you can hear the city waking up, and the smell of breakfast cooking starts to drift through the hallways. We do our own cleaning and look after the guests ourselves. Sometimes the plumbing is a bit temperamental because of how old the pipes are, but we fix things as they break. It’s a lot of work keeping up with a building like this. We sit out in the chowk sometimes in the evening when the air cools down. It is a busy life, but it is our home as much as it is a business. We hope the guests find their way through the narrow alleys.
