Shiv Sai Dormitory

I stayed here just one night while in Vadodara. Located three and a half kilometers from the sumptuous Lakshmi Vilas Palace, it’s just a bus ride away to the city’s main draw. I had a bed in a shared room (there must have been at a dozen beds in the dorm room), which made for a rather adventurous collective experience! The staff was friendly and helpful, treating me to breakfast and tea in the morning while telling me about intrepid souls who had stayed there before while biking or walking across India. If you’re traveling on a budget, this is the best deal you’ll get in Vadodara.
