Named after a famous short story by Tagore, the hotel is a perfect place to spend your "chhuti" (vacation). Away from the chaos of the main center, it is located in a residential area. You might need a rickshaw to reach Vishwabharati and other well-known attractions. Many beautiful plants welcomes you to the peaceful abode. The rooms are in the... More

Stayed at the Chhuti holiday resort for about 4 days, in early October 2012. Must tell you something about Santiniketan first. This being the place where Tagore, India's national poet, started the Viswabharati University. while this is a university town, since it is also Tagore's workplace, there are museums etc that has historical significance (albeit modern history). Also, this place... More

This resort looks as if it was abandoned by the builders and the maintenance staff soon after it was built during the hay days of the erstwhile East India Company. It was late in the evening when we landed up at this resort and confronted the front desk officer who gave us a glance as if we were intellectual inferiors... More

I have stayed at Chhuti twice in the last couple of years and enjoyed both my stays there. The food is pretty nice and the rooms are clean and well kept. Though it might seem that they are a bit under staffed, we did not face any problems with the service.

We went for a leisure trip as well as for some work. Three of us - me, my husband and my daughter were there. Service is very poor. Only one person is there who was taking order, doing the room service, working in restrurant. Rooms are not well maintained. Insects are inside the room. A/c machine was not working properly....

We enjoyed the stay in this resort, very nice garden inside, rooms are small but good, batrooms are clean. Food is ok. It would have better if rooms are kept little more clean.

From Kolkata we took a train to Shantiniketan (Tagore's University). We heard about this resort from a fellow passenger who used to stay there often. Since we had not done any bookings in advance, we thought of checking out this place as well. We were basically looking for a comfortable place to stay, not necessarily a luxurious resort becoz the... More
