Nestled within the buffer zone of Shantiniketan, a UNESCO World Heritage site, Srirangam Homestay is an art-filled retreat that offers a unique blend of traditional aesthetics, modern comfort, and cultural richness.

Srirangam’s distinctive South Indian architectural influence, combined with elements inspired by Tagore’s Shantiniketan, makes it a visually captivating space.
Inside, Srirangam’s interiors feature traditional Athangudi cement tiles, best experienced barefoot.

Srirangam offers five well-appointed ensuite bedrooms—Aadi, Ananta, Adwaita, Anagha, and Arna—spread across the first and mezzanine floors.
Each room is designed with a blend of comfort and artistic flair. King-sized beds (except for Adwaita, which features twin beds), reading tables, wardrobes, and curated artworks create a cozy yet refined atmosphere.
The ensuite bathrooms, while compact, are sleek and modern, featuring Jaquar fittings, rain showers, and organic bathroom amenities. Srirangam follows a minimal plastic waste policy and provides easy-to-wash Indian handloom towels, reinforcing the homestay’s commitment to sustainability.
For those wishing to experience local cuisine, guests can pre-order meals and snacks a day in advance. Additionally, Shantiniketan offers a variety of excellent cafes and eateries that the hosts are happy to recommend.

Srirangam is more than just a place to stay—it’s a cultural hub.

Srirangam’s philosophy centers on mindfulness, ecological sensitivity, and responsible living. Rather than offering opulent luxury, the homestay emphasizes comfort, moderation, and sustainability.
Guests are encouraged to embrace the tranquility of their surroundings, whether by reflecting on Tagore’s poetry inscribed on the walls or by enjoying the quietude provided by Srirangam’s architectural design.

Srirangam offers its rooms at competitive rates. The four standard rooms—Aadi, Ananta, Anagha, and Aaditya—are priced at INR 5,000 per night, while Adwaita, with its twin bed configuration, is available at INR 4,500 per night.

Shantiniketan is well-connected by rail, road, and air.
Srirangam Homestay is a thoughtfully designed retreat that balances cultural heritage with modern comforts. With its artistic influences, mindful living philosophy, and commitment to community engagement, Srirangam offers a truly enriching experience for guests looking to immerse themselves in the beauty and serenity of Shantiniketan.
