Hampi Hotels

Hampi in the Karnataka state of India is listed as one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Dotted around the hills and valleys are 500 plus monuments. There aren’t many star hotels, generally small and simple guesthouses concentrated in parts of Hampi.  The first spot would be Hospet town which is about 12 kilometres from Hampi, where a lot of budget hotels are available. Here luxury would mean a simple comfortable stay which you would find in a small town. The most popular and largest spot for lodging would be near the Hampi bus stand. This stretches from the Hampi bus stand to the riverside nearby and even beyond. The guest houses here are in fact simple homes to the locals with a few extra rooms. Usually common areas such as the dining hall and sometimes the bathroom are shared by the guests and the owners. With a few variations here and there, most of these are very basic backpacker type accommodations. That is, a tiny room with a metal cot and bedding, a mosquito net, fan and an attached or common bathroom completes the specifications. The bucket of hot water supplied for shower, TV in the room and the much touted rooftop restaurant. Another refuge of the backpackers is at the other side of the river called Virupapur Gadde. Apart from the typical guesthouse type accommodations, you can look for some kind of huts to stay. Some of the huts are provided with attached bathrooms and commands a small extra premium. Generally the guesthouses & lodges here are on the edges of paddy fields, banana plantations or overlooking the boulder hills. This is also the location for the few resort type of accommodations at Hampi. That’s the ones with some fancy facilities like a swimming. There are also options of sleeping space renting but one has to carry their own sleeping bag/bed spreads.
