The 10 best hotels in Bolpur, India

Designed like the 19th century Bengal’s Zamindari Bungalows which were traditionally referred to as “Thakur Baris” or “Raj Baris” in Bengali, the Garden Bungalow rests amidst the expanse of a 3- acres garden that is ordained by exotic trees, creepers and shrubs. The Bungalow is further embellished by lotus ponds which serve as its back- side, evoking the sense of nostalgia and tranquility associated with rural Bengal as often depicted in Tagore’s works. Surrounded by the sprawling garden and the ponds, this four- suit Bungalow is just a few meters away from the ravines, popularly known as Khowai, of Shantiniketan. The interiors of the Garden Bungalow are tastefully furnished with antiques, collected over time from all across Bengal, each telling of its own unique history. All the suits open up to bright verandah and terrace which are perfect for the one looking for a travel inwards, within one’s own self.

The house is located at Baganpara, off the Bolpur-Suri main road and is easily accessible via local transport. The Viswabharati campus is also pretty close and is again, easily accessible via local transport (which can be arranged on prior request). We do not serve full meals at this point as we believe while you are at Shantiniketan, it's best to roam around and have lunches or dinners at the lovely restaurants around. However, we have an ever-smiling couple who would wake you up with a hot cup of tea for a perfect start to the day and follow it up with a nice little breakfast. There are 2 types of rooms available for your stay that can together accommodate a maximum of 8 guests. The rooms are spacious so that you don't feel cramped out of space. One of them, the suite room, has two attached bathrooms and the other, the standard double room, has one. The most attractive part of the stay might well be the balcony which is so perfect for those long conversations that you probably might lose track of the time; that's what has happened to us over the years and that's exactly why this is still our personal favourite place in the house. We love music, we love Tagore (silly, but that was THE reason we thought of building this house at Shantiniketan, a good 30 years back), and we would love to have people who share this passion. However, as a gesture of peaceful co-existence to the neighbours, we politely request guests not to indulge in playing loud music which might seem out of place and not of good taste with the surroundings and we're sure they understand. If this sounds like home to you, we're sure it'll feel like home too, once you are here.
