Tara Guest House

Nice and quiet to a comfortable price. Very friendly staff, like a stay with family

I liked a lot the facilities, the room had a good size, there was hot water , we had mosquitoes nets at the windows, nice blankets and nice cotton towels.

The electric plugs were not enough and placed in weard positions. They should provide more toilet paper and some soap

I felt like I was living as part of the family. I enjoyed playing with the children, chatting to the family and doing some vegetable preparation for the meal. Food was fresh, delicious with lots of vegetables. I felt more connected here than in a hotel. I also felt under the protection of the family who were able to give lots of help and advice. They helped with transport, guides for sightseeing. There was lots of laughter and goodwill. My room was on the second floor. It was a very generous size, clean and no traffic noise. I was able to visit the Shantindiaschool where I spoke to the students and teachers and was fortunate to sit in on a teacher training session. A fantastic project that provides education to 850 disadvantaged local children. This place radically changes lives for the better. I felt happier contributing to the school rather than giving plastic covered biscuits or rupees to the hundreds of beggars. The location is 1.5km out of town so I accessed the beautiful Tara temple and Tergar Monastery as well as the Temples in the main town.

The bed was a bit hard

The room was clean and comfortable for a budget option. The staff were all very kind and super helpful. Anuj spent hours one night trying to book us train tickets, and didn’t charge any commission. They run a not-for-profit school for disadvantaged youth, of which they are more than happy to give you a tour. And they will make a home cooked breakfast or dinner for you with advanced notice.

It’s a little far from the main sights, but not too bad if you don’t mind a 20-30 minute walk.

Amazing hosts. The family running Regis hostel is the best thing about it. It's good for many reasons.

Little bit far from Mahabodhi temple but not too much. No Mosquito nets over the beds but that seems to be a standard in this region so no complaints really.

Excellent cleaning. Good shower

Liked everything, Anuj is a very sympathetic man

The location is fine, people are kind. The room was clean.

Nothing as such. For a solo traveller it was a good place in budget.
