Bikaner’s winter days are mild and its nights bite, and hotel heating is not what the booking photos imply.
The heating spectrum
- The top tier: the palace and heritage hotels run blowers or central heating on request, sometimes with an energy surcharge that appears on the bill.
- The budget reality: most budget rooms offer heavy quilts and a requestable blower, shared or extra-charged; the budget guide flags the check.
- The questions: “Is there a heater in the room or on request? Is there a charge?”, asked before booking, in December specifically.
The honest physics: thick stone walls hold the day’s warmth till midnight; after that, quilts do the work, pack thermals and let the quilt finish the job.
