Where to stay in Hampi

Hampi was the capital of the Vijayanagara Empire, and its ruins spread across a landscape of giant boulders, banana fields and the Tungabhadra River. Stays here are fewer than in other heritage towns, but a handful of resorts nearby capture the grandeur of the empire.

Where to stay

There are small guesthouses in Hampi itself, and a few larger heritage-style resorts toward Kamalapura and the surrounding countryside. Staying across the river gives a quieter, more rural stay.

Good to know

The cooler months from October to February are best. Rent a bicycle or hire a tuk-tuk to cover the ruins, and visit the main temples at dawn.
