Hotel Basant & Restaurant

You will find us on the first floor of a building on Suraj Kund Road in Meerut. A good way to know you are in the right spot is to look for the animal hospital right across the street. We have been here for a good while, serving food and letting out rooms to travelers. The restaurant part of the business keeps us very busy, especially in the evenings when the locals come in. You can usually smell whatever is cooking in the kitchen from the hallway. It is a simple place, nothing like those big chain hotels you see in Delhi. We have regular furniture and the walls could probably use a new coat of paint soon, but it is clean enough. Being on the first floor means there are some stairs to climb, which is something to keep in mind if you have heavy bags. The Suraj Kund area is a lively part of Meerut, so there is always something going on outside. We get a mix of people—some staying for work and others just stopping by for a meal. My team and I aren't trained in fancy hospitality schools; we just talk to people like neighbors. We do not have a massive menu, just the things we know how to make well. It is honest work and we try to make sure nobody leaves hungry or tired. If the traffic outside gets a bit loud, that is just life on Suraj Kund Road and we have all gotten used to it.
