3-star hotels in Kolkata
A shortlist of 3-star hotels in Kolkata, drawn from 15 properties across the city and ranked by what previous guests said. It is for travellers who want a clean, simple base in the book quarter, the central business streets or the southern suburbs.
Staying in Kolkata
Kolkata rewards slow wandering: the College Street book quarter, colonial-era office streets and the riverfront all sit within a few kilometres of each other. The hotels on this shortlist are scattered across that spread rather than clustered in one spot. Several sit on or just off College Street and its neighbours to the north, including Kzar Corporate Hotel, Hotel Cecil and Fabhotel Stay Inn International. Others line Mahatma Gandhi Rd and the Dalhousie and Waterloo Street blocks around Hotel White House and OYO Rooms Dalhousie Waterloo Street. A further group lies east and south, at Sealdah, Bowbazar, Vip Road, Rashbehari Avenue, Joka and beyond to Sarisa.
The result suits different trips. Couples and short-break visitors are best served by the central addresses, where the book stalls and old coffee houses are within easy reach. Solo travellers and business guests who need the station or office districts will prefer Sealdah and Dalhousie. Families and longer stays do better at the quieter southern and suburban properties, where space and calm replace the bustle of the centre.
