Hotel Grace

Madhya Pradesh & Chhattisgarh


There's solid value for money at this small hotel with compact, tidy rooms, and bedding that is better than at many much more expensive hotels. Most rooms have bathtubs to luxuriate in. Staff are helpful and speak good English. The only drawback is that there's no in-house restaurant, so breakfast is just served on a tray in your room.

It's a short hop from the railway station (with free pickup if you like).
