A boutique hotel celebrating Bengal’s books and art with lots of space, WiFi, quiet, and green all around. In essence, all the things you need for work, or a nice restful few days to read and relax.
We offer you the opposite of budget hotels. Our rooms are large and full of natural light, there's enough space for you to do yoga or push-ups inside your room. And if you are the sort who doesn't like to stay cooped up in a room, step out and use our sizeable living room space. These are well-appointed with several sets of tables and chairs, so you can have your own quiet corner.
The whole house is done up with books covers, and drawings and illustrations from Bengali books.
We are a bed & breakfast establishment approved by the Indian government's ministry of tourism under the Incredible India project. We will give you a good bed, clean bathroom, comfortable sheets, and plenty of space to rest and work (and read, if you like). We will also give you a freshly-made breakfast in the morning to get you started.
