Visitors are welcome with prior notice, so please email first: admin@ramakantmaharaj.net
Maharaj says "we are providing maximum facilities to devotees staying with our Ashram It's Grace of our Sadgurus"
Enquiries re places to stay: There are two or three rooms in the ashram for visitors now with additional steel beds installed. There may be a bed free, but please do not assume accommodation is available. In addition the roof top terrace is now covered with a roof and there are three tents, cotton bed's available in this area. For the more adventurous traveler, plz bring a small tent, for use under covered balcony area. In this area there are wash rooms, some western toilets, and an Auquaguard Pure Water Machine, a Fridge and solar warm water for bathing. In terms of sustenance there is a local tiffin service at a reasonable amount of Rs60/ per tiffin/lunch.
Hotel Accommodation can be found in the surrounding area. Unfortunately, it is not guaranteed to be available in the ashram itself. Whatever accommodation decided upon, we generally recommend only to make advance payment for 3 nights accommodation before arrival in India, so as to keep options open.
SMALL ASHRAM 3 ROOMS
Check out Theem Plaaza and Utsav Hotels should be fine.
The recommended hotel for visitors is: HOTEL THEEM PLAAZA (Utsav is also recommended.) It is not usually essential to book Hotels in advance. A short advance booking would be a good idea and you can always change your accommodation to suit when you get here. Cheaper rates can be negotiated, (if you mention the name 'Ranjeet Ashram' to hotel proprietors and the word 'discount'). THERE ARE USUALLY DISCOUNTS AVAILABLE SO PLZ ASK !
Also recommended (by Maharaj) and recently opened is
Utsav Hotel.
Veg menu. Very comfortable. Not too expensive (1400R/-s)for short visit.*****
RECENT REVIEW MARCH 2017 - POOR: Not good value for money. Wifi only in a lobby. Please note that the UTSAV HOTEL is 20min walking distance.

When giving reasons for visit we suggest not to use words like 'pilgrimage', pilgrim, ashram, charity, work, or investment opportunity or give similar reasons such as 'business interests'. These can raise red flags in the application process and can cause delays or even refusal of visa. We cannot accept responsibility for any refusal of visa. This note is simply advisory.
