The subcontinent has a huge variety of hotels including some
of the world’s most luxurious properties. If your budget
doesn’t run to 5 star plus we can recommend and book a wide
range of accommodation including colonial properties, good
quality mid-range hotels, homestays, jungle lodges, tents
and treehouses.
Please note that a high ‘official’ classification does not
necessarily mean a better hotel. Grading is based on
facilities and does not take into account character,
location and service. Select Connections therefore does not
give the ‘official classification’ of the hotels listed in
this website, but we do offer our opinion.
Our categories are as follows:
Luxury (L) – this is a top of the range hotel of 5
star plus quality, offering a full range of facilities.
Top Quality (T) – these hotels may not be as
luxurious as above but will be of 4 or 5 star standard of
comfort and have a good range of facilities.
Mid Range (M) – 3 or 4 star hotels offering a range
of facilities and reasonable comfort. They mostly offer
air-conditioning or air-coolers (where necessary).
Standard (S) – simple hotels or guesthouses. The
facilities will be limited but the rooms will have en suite
facilities (unless stated otherwise). These hotels may not
offer air-conditioning but a friendly service often
compensates for the lack of amenities.
Homestay (Hs) – most homestays will offer a
comfortable room with en suite bathroom but otherwise the
facilities are likely to be limited. You will be welcomed to
a family home and expected to eat the local cuisine.
Heritage (H) – any of the above categories may also
be heritage properties offering a colonial or atmospheric
ambience.
Boutique (B) – any of the above but a hotel with a
small number of rooms offering stylish accommodation.
Boutique hotels are usually privately owned. |
