Camellia Hotel and Resort

A LITTLE town where Tagore’s magical words seem to perfume the atmosphere, Santiniketan is serene getaway. While the visva Bharati University campus is the number one attraction in This town, you are sure to be charmed by its ashram feel, and the arts that receive so much care. Hop into a rickshaw and make for Sriniketan-a rural crafts centre where co-operative stores sell batik work, kantha embroidered fabrics and products, handwoven textiles, dhokra metalware, the famous Santiniketan leather goods and terracotta pottery. Also visit Amar kutir, 15 kms from town, that offers more variety in products and great value for money. You can also create made-to-order terracotta jewellery in collaboration with village craftsmen lining the streets. Take a breather at your room in Camellia, one of the nicest hotels in town.
