Ayodhya has swung from a handful of dharamshalas to a full range of stays within 2 to 3 km of the mandir. Trust-linked and community dharamshalas such as Shree Janki Mahal Trust, Sahu Dharamshala, Madhav Bhavan and Hanuman Bagh offer simple two, three and four-bed rooms, AC and non-AC, from roughly Rs 500 to Rs 2000 a night with basics like parking and attached baths. Newer budget and mid-range hotels and guesthouses cluster around the station and the temple approach roads, and premium hotels have opened since 2024. Book well ahead for Ram Navami and Deepotsav, when the town fills completely; the district administration and Trust list vetted accommodation online.
Ayodhya's lodging has expanded fast since the 2024 consecration, and most useful options sit within 2 to 3 km of the mandir. Trust-linked and community dharamshalas such as Shree Janki Mahal Trust, Sahu Dharamshala, Madhav Bhavan and Hanuman Bagh offer plain two, three and four-bed rooms in AC and non-AC grades, roughly Rs 500 to Rs 2000 a night, with basics like parking, Wi-Fi and attached bathrooms. These are the pilgrim staple and the best value for families.
Around the station and along the temple approach roads you will also find newer budget and mid-range hotels and guesthouses, and a handful of premium hotels have opened since the temple's rise. The catch is festival demand: for Ram Navami and Deepotsav the town books out weeks ahead and rates climb, so reserve early. The district administration and the Trust both publish vetted accommodation lists online, which are the safest way to confirm a genuine stay.
