Staying in Kolkata

Kolkata is a city of colonial-era architecture, trams, river ghats and a strong literary and culinary culture. Visitors usually come for the Victoria Memorial, the Howrah bridge and the food, and many arrive or leave through Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport. This shortlist reflects that: the listed hotels sit around the airport and Dum Dum, in New Town and Rajarhat, and in the northern suburbs along Jessore Road, VIP Road and the Belghoria Expressway.

Couples on a short break and business travellers heading to New Town or Rajarhat have the widest choice, with 5-star and 4-star options in City Centre New Town, New Town Square and Action Area II. Families and anyone with a late arrival or early departure are better served by the airport-side addresses on Jessore Road and NSCBI Airport. Guests wanting a longer, quieter stay can look at the northern suburban properties in Belghoria, Nimta and Kaikhali.
