We want to stay inside the Fort for 3 nights. Boutique hotels are expensive. Are there good guesthouses or should we spend more for the experience?

There are excellent mid-range guesthouses and small hotels inside the Fort now - places like 'Fort Bazaar', 'The Sun House', or smaller family-run ones. You get the Fort experience without the ultra-luxury price. The really expensive ones are beautiful but you can have almost the same location and charm for half the price at a good guesthouse. Book early - good ones fill up.

We stayed in a small guesthouse inside the Fort. Loved being able to walk everywhere at night. Would do it again.

Location inside the Fort matters more than the building. Some 'boutique' places are overpriced for what you get. Read recent reviews carefully.

Good guesthouse inside the Fort sounds perfect for our budget.
