Accommodation options across the four Kumbh cities
From dharamshalas to private cottages, here's the range of stays available, and where to find verified listings.
Tents & camps
Organised tent cities, ranging from basic dormitory tents to serviced "Swiss cottage" tents with attached bathrooms, are the most common stay for the festival period.
Dharamshalas & ashrams
Low-cost, simple accommodation run by religious trusts, popular with pilgrims observing Kalpavas.
Hotels & guesthouses
Standard hotel stays in the wider city, further from the ghats but with more consistent amenities and easier year-round booking.
Verified listings
