Kadamb Resort

Overview

About this property

Kadamb Resort is a resort in Vrindavan, on Keshav Dham Road, near Prem Mandir. Its own site calls it a spiritual resort in the holy land of Krishna and Radha, and its pages back that up with plain facts: apartments with kitchens and balconies, a swimming pool, a temple cab service, leisure activities, and religious services for guests. It is a resort stay for a temple trip, not a small city hotel.

The resort's rooms are apartments, not standard hotel rooms. Its own room pages describe a king size bed, a sofa bed, a dining table, a private balcony, a private equipped kitchen with an induction plate and cookware, and a fully air-conditioned space. That kitchen is a real difference: guests can prepare basic food in their own apartment, with tea, coffee and sugar provided every day, as the resort's room page says.

What this resort does well is space and calm. The apartments have balconies, and the resort's services page lists a jogging track in green premises, a swimming pool at ground level outside the lobby with a main pool and a kids pool, and leisure activities. The resort also lists a gaushala, yoga, kirtan and a sadhu bhojnalya on its room pages, which fits the devotional character of Vrindavan.

Kadamb Resort suits families and longer stays, since the apartments have kitchens, dining tables and sofa beds, and the resort's family suite takes up to 4 adults. It also suits pilgrims who want a quiet base near Prem Mandir, with a temple cab and a travel desk to help with darshan trips. If you want to cook a little, sit on a balcony, and take the temple days slowly, this fits.

The resort's own services page adds more practical details: baggage services through the travel desk, car rental with a chauffeur-driven car recommended, credit card acceptance with a deposit asked before check-in, and a front desk for reception and cashier queries. The resort also lists fire and safety notes, with an evacuation plan behind each room door and a fire alarm button in each corridor. Those are the everyday details that make a longer stay easy.

Everything above is taken from the hotel's own website. If something is not listed here, it means we could not confirm it from the official site, so we have not written it.

Rooms

Apartments with kitchens and balconies

The resort's own home page lists three room types: Deluxe Room, Super Deluxe with sofa cum bed, and Family Suite. The family suite page gives the most detail: 1 king size bed, an L-shaped sofa bed in a separate hall for couple privacy, space for up to 4 adults, and up to 3 kids sharing the same bed or sofa bed. The suite sits on 11 floors, with 2 units on each floor, as the resort's page says.

Every apartment, as the resort's room page lists, has a luxurious king size bed with a soft headboard, a 10-inch mattress with a comforter, white cotton bed linen, microfibre pillows, a sofa bed in some apartments, a quilt, an electronic safe locker, a fully air-conditioned room, a hot and cold shower bath, and complimentary bathroom toiletries. The bathrooms have Jaquar geysers and three dispensers for shower gel and shampoo, checked daily.

The kitchens are equipped, as the resort's room page says, with a refrigerator, an induction plate, basic utensils, plates and bowls, cutlery, a knife, a strainer, a vacuum flask and a chopping board. RO water is provided regularly in the flask, and sugar, coffee and tea sachets are provided every day. Utensil cleaning happens daily in the morning. The televisions are 32-inch Samsung LED sets with a Tata Sky connection, and the apartments have a private balcony.

Room types and prices change with the season, so the resort's own website will have the latest list. We do not show prices here because they change often, and we do not want to show you an old price. If you need a kitchen or a separate hall for privacy, ask for it by room type when you book, since only some apartments list a separate hall.

If you travel with children, the family suite's layout helps: a main room with a king size bed and a separate hall with an L-shaped sofa bed, keeping couple privacy while children sleep nearby. The resort's page says up to 3 kids under 10 years can share the same bed or sofa bed, with up to 4 adults in total. Linen changes happen every second day and quilt covers every third day, as the room page says, with housekeeping available on call in between.

Food & drink

Where to eat

Food at Kadamb Resort is available from 6:30 in the morning to 11 at night, as the resort's own services page says, with an in-room dining menu to refer to. That long window helps on a temple trip, when darshan hours start early and run late. The resort's home page also mentions a rooftop restaurant and a Spice Tree Restaurant in an old event listing, but those names are not confirmed on the resort's current services page, so the food hours above are the confirmed fact to rely on.

The apartment kitchens are the other food option, and they are a real part of staying here. The resort's room page says each kitchen has a refrigerator, an induction plate, basic utensils and cutlery, with RO water, tea, coffee and sugar provided every day. Guests can buy items from grocery shops and prepare basic food in their own apartment, with utensil cleaning done daily in the morning.

Outside the resort, Vrindavan's temple lanes have small eateries serving simple satvik food, and Mathura peda is the sweet to buy on the way back. The resort's travel desk can help with local trips, as its services page says. For the latest dining options and menus at the resort, the resort's own website is the right place to check.

One more practical point is the kitchen routine. The resort's room page says utensil cleaning happens daily in the morning, and RO water is provided regularly in the flask, with tea, coffee and sugar sachets provided every day. That means a family can make morning tea in the apartment before heading out to temples, and eat the resort's food later in the day. For the latest dining options, the resort's website is the right place to check.

Things to do

A day of temples, at an easy pace

A good day at Kadamb Resort starts early, with Banke Bihari Temple. It is the town's most-visited temple, and the morning darshan is the busiest time, so reach early and keep the visit simple. The resort sits near Prem Mandir, as its own site says, so the evening visit to Prem Mandir, when the white marble lights up, is a short trip from the resort.

After the morning temples, come back to the resort for a rest. The middle of the day is the best time to use the swimming pool, which the resort's services page puts at ground level outside the lobby, with a main pool and a kids pool for resort guests. The jogging track in the green premises is there for an early morning walk, and the apartments give you a quiet place to rest.

In the late afternoon, go to the ISKCON Krishna Balaram temple complex, and then to Prem Mandir in the evening. The Nidhivan grove, linked to Krishna's raslila, is also worth a quiet visit, and a parikrama — a circle walk around the town — is how many pilgrims spend their time here. The resort's travel desk can help with temple darshan, spiritual tours, sightseeing and city travel, as its services page says.

In the evening, come back to the resort for a calm meal, either from the resort's food service or from your own apartment kitchen. Vrindavan's lanes stay busy late, but the resort's grounds are quiet, and that contrast is part of why people pick it. If you have a second day, Mathura is close by, with the Krishna Janmabhoomi complex and Vishram Ghat on the Yamuna, and the resort's travel desk can arrange transfers, as its services page says.

Location

Where it is, and what is near

Vrindavan is a small temple town on the Yamuna, in the Mathura district. It is known as the town where Krishna spent his childhood, and its streets are full of temples, ashrams and small shops selling flowers, sweets and prayer items. The hotels on this page are in Vrindavan town, close to the main temples.

If this is your first time in Vrindavan, these are the places most people visit: Banke Bihari Temple, the town's most-visited Krishna temple; the ISKCON Krishna Balaram temple complex; Prem Mandir, the white-marble temple that looks best in the evening lights; and Nidhivan, the sacred grove linked to Krishna's raslila. The lanes between them are narrow and busy, and walking is often faster than driving.

We have not written distances here on purpose. Temple lanes and festival crowds change travel time a lot, so a fixed number would go out of date fast. Ask your driver or your hotel for the time on the day you travel.

Darshan timings at the temples change with the season and the festival calendar, and the popular temples get very crowded in the morning and evening. Reach a little early if you want a calm darshan, and keep small belongings close in the crowd.

Getting here

How to reach the hotel

Most guests reach Vrindavan by road from Delhi or Agra, through Mathura. The drive runs on the highway, and the last part is through the town's narrow lanes. Cheapcab runs Delhi to Vrindavan taxis, and the route pages on this site show the fare.

Mathura is the nearest big railway station, with trains from Delhi and other cities. From Mathura station, a short taxi or auto ride takes you to Vrindavan town.

Keep your hotel's name and address ready on your phone, and share it with your driver before you start. Temple-town lanes can be narrow and confusing, and a phone address saves a lot of back-and-forth at the end of a long journey.

Best time

Best time to visit Vrindavan

The best time to visit Vrindavan is from October to March. The weather is cool and pleasant, and you can walk between temples without getting tired. These are also the busiest months, so book your hotel a few weeks ahead.

Janmashtami and Holi turn Vrindavan electric, but they also bring the biggest crowds of the year. If you come for a festival, book everything early and keep extra time in hand for temple queues and slow traffic.

April to June brings hot weather. Mornings and evenings are still good for temple visits, but the middle of the day is best spent indoors. Carry water, a hat and light clothes if you come in summer.

July to September brings rain. The town looks green and fresh, but rain can slow down travel, so keep some extra time in hand if you come in the monsoon.

Good to know

Before you book

Cheapcab does not book hotels. You book a hotel on its own official website, using the button on this page. Prices, room types, check-in time and cancellation rules are all on the hotel's site, and they change with the season. Always read them there before you pay.

The photos on this page are from the hotel's official website, and the source link is given under the photo gallery. We do not use photos from booking sites or stock photo sites for hotels.

If you need a taxi to reach the hotel, or to go from Delhi to Vrindavan, you can book it from Cheapcab. The taxi fare and the hotel stay are separate. Your taxi driver will not charge you for the hotel, and the hotel will not charge you for the taxi.

One last practical tip for Vrindavan: this is a temple town, and the food near the temples is simple satvik food, tasty but with no onion or garlic. Footwear comes off at temples, so wear shoes that are easy to slip on and off. Alcohol is not sold locally in the Mathura–Vrindavan religious zone, so plan around it before you reach.
