Rudimentary

I've tried two places here and they both were as rudimentary as it gets. Inexpensive in October though, Rs150 to 200 for two. Pack your own sheets ;) See if you can find a GMVN lodge around. You still can't stay upset because you hear the sound of the gushing river from your room all night.

Opinion of Price: least expensive

Lovely array -- water alongside the greens.

GMVN Rambara: (Rambara) The Basics +

Garhwal Mandal Vikas Nigam (GMVN) is government-run chain of accommodation with branches all over the place in Garhwal. From what I saw they're all pretty much the same - clean, friendly, and in convenient places. The beds were comfortable and warm, and there was hot water in the morning, starting at about 7am, and it lasted long enough for a complete shower. Grounds are set far enough off the main path to make the riverside backyard quiet, and everything was decently cared-for. Dinner was basic but good.

The price of Rs500 was high for the area; there is a dorm room, though, for less.

Opinion of Price: more expensive than average

Sunil Lodge:: The Basics

I got the feeling this was one of the better places to stay in Guarikund, but that's not saying a lot. It's spartan, clean-ish, and had a a good view of the town (really not saying a lot) and a little bit of the valley. My neighbors were exceptionally loud at 4 am, getting ready to climb. The hotel arranged my porter (for whom I overpaid, but he was decent), breakfast of parathas was greasy and on the bland side, but the tea was good.

I also stayed at the Sunil Lodges in Guptikashi and at Kedarnath, which were both spartan and clean-ish; there are at least two more in the area, which are probably similar. I paid Rs200/night at all three places.

Not Five Star

The path to holy redemption is paved with hardships, so don't expect too much. We got a bed and not much else.
