Welcome to Guwahati — Where Every Stay Has a Story
Welcome to Guwahati
Nestled on the southern banks of the mighty Brahmaputra, Guwahati isn’t just a city—it’s a feeling. It’s the first light of the Northeast, the cultural cradle of Assam, and a place where the past gently holds hands with the present.
Once known as Pragjyotishpur, the City of Eastern Light, Guwahati was the ancient capital of the Kamrupa kingdom. The echoes of that rich history still hum through the air—whether you’re standing before the centuries-old Kamakhya Temple, where mysticism and divinity merge, or strolling through the quiet ruins of Madgharia’s rock temples, etched by time.
But Guwahati is more than temples and tales. It’s early-morning ferry rides on the Brahmaputra, sipping steaming lal saah on Uzan Bazar’s ghats, and watching the golden sunset dip behind the Nilachal Hills. It’s the music of Bihu filling the air in spring, and the quiet rustle of old trees in Cotton College lanes whispering stories of generations past.
And then, there’s the heartbeat of the modern city—cafés tucked into colonial bungalows, vibrant local markets like Fancy Bazaar, and the spiritual calm of Navagraha Hill, offering panoramic views that soothe the soul.
At Beau Monde Suites, we carry this spirit forward—a blend of elegance and emotion, comfort and culture. Each of our homestays is thoughtfully designed to reflect the many moods of Guwahati—whether it’s the earthy tones of autumn, the rhythm of local folklore, or the quiet opulence of the Brahmaputra’s breeze.
Here, you don’t just book a room. You arrive in a city that feels like memory and discovery at once—and we help you live its story.
Come stay with us.
Experience Guwahati, the Beau Monde way.
