Other Homestays in Shantiniketan

Amoli, Ratan Palli
One of the finest homestays we have stayed in, anywhere in India. They have single-handed raised homestay hospitality standards across all parameters, to a level unsurpassed not just in Shantiniketan but probably elsewhere in India as well. Amoli offers an incredible aesthetic experience, and we have lost count of the number of times we have stayed here in the past, if that says anything about this remarkable homestay. To top it, the hosts are simply incredible.

Chhayabrita, Jamboni
Quaint, beautiful little garden bungalow with incredible character; a home away from home, representing the quintessence of Shantiniketan. Offers an authentic Shantiniketan experience.

Guloncho, Andrews Palli
Incredibly atmospheric garden bungalow, in one of the most tranquil and upmarket locations in Shantiniketan, offering a splendidly warm, welcoming and authentic hospitality experience that represents the quintessence of Shantiniketan as it was originally conceived. And to top it, Goloncho offer outstanding value for money to their guests. We have lost count of the number of times we have stayed here in the past, if that says anything about this place. And like us, you simply can’t help adore the hosts, when you get to know them.

Incredibly atmospheric, splendid garden bungalow in one of the most tranquil and upmarket locations in Shantiniketan representing the the quintessence of Shantiniketan. It is the twin Bunglow to Gulancha, and we have loved our stays here as well.

The Parul Heritage Guesthouse, Purba Palli
Located within the core UNESCO heritage area, the location of this incredibly atmospheric homestay is just unbeatable. The unique neighbourhood consists of places created by Tagore and his associates. The character of this homestay is such that you wouldn’t be faulted if you believed that you were staying in one of the houses built by Rabindranath Tagore and his Shantiniketan architect, Surendranath Kar.
