3-star hotels in Vrindavan
A shortlist of 3-star hotels in Vrindavan, on the banks of the Yamuna in the Braj region. It is for pilgrims and couples who want a temple visit with a comfortable room, and for families who need space and parking.
Staying in Vrindavan
Vrindavan is a small temple town on the Yamuna, part of the Braj region that also includes Mathura. Temple construction here spans several centuries, and Banke Bihari, Prem Mandir and ISKCON Vrindavan are well-known landmarks. Attractions are concentrated in the central areas, so visitors spend their days among temples, ashrams and river ghats, and their evenings on traditional sweets and religious music. The range of places to stay runs from budget guesthouses to more comfortable hotels.
These 3-star hotels sit across the temple districts rather than in one quarter. Several give addresses near Prem Mandir on Chatikara Road, Rukmani Vihar and Raman Reti; others name Gopal Garh, Chaitanya Vihar and the ISKCON temple area along Bhaktivedanta Swami Marg, with Sunrakh Road and Raman Reti Marg further out. They suit couples and families on a short break, and business travellers using the meeting rooms and business centres.
