Sundarban Guest House HOTEL $ (%2730722; s/d from 385/550; suisse chalet aruba a) A cheery, colourful hotel that s the best budget option in town and about the closest suisse chalet aruba the northeast comes to a backpacker hangout. Rooms are atypically clean and tidy with stain-free sheets, and management is helpful. It s off Manipuribasti East (ME) Rd, in the fi rst side lane and away from road noise.

The biggest, most cosmopolitan and, some might say, the most Indian city in the northeast, Guwahati is an essential stop on any northeastern tour. A casual glance might place Guwahati alongside any other Indian city but wander the back alleys around Jorpulkuri Ponds, away from the concrete jungle of the central business district, and you could almost imagine yourself in a village made up of ponds, palm trees, small single-storey traditional houses and old colonial-era mansions.

Some 3km west on Mahatma Gandhi Marg is Ganga Market, landmarked by a red, triple-spired temple and nearby clock tower. The market itself is a busy clash of peoples from across the borderlands as well as piles of colourful fruit and some other decidedly exotic food items. The good-value Hotel Blue Pine (%2211118; suisse chalet aruba s 300-500, d 500-600) is here, with well-maintained rooms and a mix of common and private suisse chalet aruba bathrooms. Don t mind the caged receptionist, he s quite tame and helpful.
