If you have time, take a day trip to Ossian, about ten miles outside Jodhpur. There are some interesting Hindi sites there, some quite ancient, as well as an active Durga temple and a Jain temple.

Thanks for the advice about Ossian. As for my Jodhpur lodging I have a refundable room at RAAS and am thinking about changing to Fort Chanwa Luni, the Tripadvisor reviews look good, and it's less than 1/2 the price of RAAS. I read a few reviews of Kothi Heritage and one said a bunch of rooms have no windows, so we decided to pass - my husband is picky.

Tans, there are LOADS of TArecommended placesIN Jodhpur that are half the price of RAAS.

Re :I have no particular interest in Kothi Heritage (other than friend who loved it) but in general, for any particular in any hotel, e.g. no windows, in this or any place... ask your travel agent to have them request/guarantee you getting a room with whatever ,you do or do not want, depending on the place. You will usually be given vouchers to turn in to the hotel when arriving...DO NOT turn them in until you see the room, if you have any concerns!!

Or...are you booking all these places yourself? Sorry, i can't recall if you decided to do the entrie trip independently.

re Jodhpur, i think it is RHKKMK who stayed at and enjoyed Ratan Vilas in Jodhpur; check it out!
I think it is about 1/3 to 1/2 the price of RAAS.
