Great stay, close to Mahabodhi, in nature

What a great place to stay. It's only 15 minute walk to the Mahabodhi Temple and Kalachakra Grounds, but in the middle of nature, right on the bank of the beautiful Naranjana River. You can see the Mahabodhi Temple right from the hotel itself, too. We had a great stay. The staff was professional and helped with every need that came up during my 9 day stay. Highly recommended!
