Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This is - to me - the best stay in Bodhgaya. Its down a quiet side road, away from the hustle & noise of the main street & just the atmosphere and energy of the place is so perfect. Simple, homey & elegant - it is rare to find a place with this kind of style & simple grace. For someone who wants a mix of a truly peaceful natural place to rest after busy Bodhgaya days - its ideal & Pappu is a true gentleman, trustworthy, full of knowledge about India and its mystic history - theres real love & you will be looked after in this place. Highly Recommended

Ce n’est pas un hotel mais une pension de famille dont Papou est l’âme secrète. Il vous accompagnera pendant votre séjour, avec une bienveillance, une attention et un sourire inégalé. Tous ses conseils sont honnêtes et excellents et vous évitent tous les déboires. Nous avons eu la chance de pouvoir bavarder longuement avec lui car, en basse saison, il était très disponible. Il règne un calme et une paix propice à la meditation. Les chambres sont monacales : blanches, simples, de très jolies meubles en bois sculptés.

Located in a quiet area (when there is no marriage ...). The hotel is really nicely furnished, sophisticated, with all comfort, good beds, hot water. I like the simple breakfast (good fruit salad). We met only Papu , he was nice and welcoming. definitely recommended.
