If your main priority is staying very close to Mahakaleshwar Temple to minimize walking and maximize convenience for darshan & aarti, Hotel Bholenath is a great choice. It’s a budget stay, not luxury, so go with modest expectations — some amenities are basic, and there may be minor maintenance issues.
The location is unbeatable, service is good, and the owner is very helpful — he even gave us a free upgrade from a 2-bed AC room to a 3-bed AC room. The hotel also provides 24x7 hot water and Wi-Fi, which made our stay comfortable.
Overall, it’s a very good budget stay option for anyone visiting Mahakaleshwar Temple and wanting to stay just a few steps away from the shrine. 🙏
