My stay at Shanghai Stay, Bodhgaya was absolutely amazing. The hotel is clean, peaceful, and very well-maintained. The rooms are comfortable and equipped with all modern amenities. The staff is extremely polite, helpful, and professional. The location is perfect – very close to the Mahabodhi Temple and other important sites. If you're visiting Bodhgaya, I highly recommend Shanghai Stay. It's the perfect place for a calm and comfortable stay. Big thanks to the entire Shanghai Stay team for making my visit so memorable! 🙏

Everything was great about Marina Homestay and ended up staying for many days. It’s a nice place in a spacious open field, though the most impressive thing was the staff and owners they are an inspirational family and I felt warmly welcomed which was a delightful surprise. There was group from Thailand staying there who were also very friendly and welcoming too which all contributed to my stay and wholesome experience of Bodh Gaya after 20 years since my first visit there… Marina home stay is a little away from the main Maha Bodhi temple but this means that it’s a quiet peaceful place and there are some local temples close by like the 21 Tara Devi temple which is exquisite. So really Marina home stay was perfect for me and well recommended. Thank you 👁️🙏👁️

I got a chance to stay at the bodhgaya guest house. It was a really nice experience due to nice supporting staff, great location, clean and big room with all ammonites. I recommend if you are planning to visit Bodhgaya you should try to stay here and enjoy the greenery as well as the great accommodation.

Everything was great. I ended up paying to upgrade to an AC room, but both the AC and non AC rooms were really nice. It was super clean. And the location was great, it was close to everything but the street was quiet. Recommended!

    Probably our best stay in all of India! We arrived in Gaya on the train after 3am. Sumit the owner waited for us to arrive and helped us navigate with our tuk tuk driver from the station. The location is walking distance to restaurants and temples. Room was.perfectly clean, and the AC was great! I would recommend for single travelers or couples. Wonderful and welcoming family that owns the homestay. Mahalo for our stay Trevor and Brittany- Honolulu, Hawaii

    It's cheap, spacious, quiet (there was only one other guest), family-run, in the village. Local people doing their own stuff. The hard bed was good to me. There's a kitchen with a refrigerator and a small cooker to use. By paying more attention to few aspects and adding few more services, Sujata Buddha Homestay can be really appealing for travellers who look for accommodation off the tourist zone but still at a reasonable distance from the main attractions.

    The homestay was situated near Mahabodhi Bihar, just a short walk from the Bihar and other eateries. I chose this place because they offered an early morning checkin. Sunita aunty was very warm with us. The room and bed linens were clean, and the AC worked fine. We were provided with necessary amenities such as tissues, soaps, glasses, and even mosquito nets. My mom really enjoyed the experience.

    We loved this place! The room and even the bathroom were so clean! Love the minimalistic style of everything and the high ceilings, it's really a nice place to stay! About the location, what many people mention: there is nothing wrong with the road, you can easily drive here. If you have any issues with locals living outside the hotel, then don't visit Bodh Gaya!
