Rubystone Hospitality has announced the opening of its latest property in Vrindavan, marking the group’s 12th hotel and furthering its presence in India’s spiritual and cultural tourism circuit. Located conveniently close to the famed Prem Mandir, Banke Bihari Temple, ISKCON Temple, Nidhivan, and the tranquil Yamuna Ghats, the hotel is perfectly positioned for devotees and tourists alike.
The new property features comfortable, well-furnished, and affordable rooms, a multi-cuisine restaurant serving a wide variety of dishes, and a charming terrace café offering stunning views of Vrindavan. Designed with a focus on nature and calm surroundings, the hotel provides a serene retreat, whether for spiritual seekers or travellers simply looking to unwind.
Speaking on the launch, Mr. Sandeep Singh, founder of Rubystone Hospitality, shared, “Vrindavan occupies a unique position in the hearts of millions. With this hotel, we aim to offer tourists a stay that is warm, clean, and full of peace. We have tried to bring together modern hospitality with the sanctity of this lovely city.”
He further noted that the hotel is thoughtfully designed to cater to today’s travellers — individual pilgrims, families on vacation, and couples seeking a peaceful getaway. “The goal is to provide simple comforts with caring service, so guests can be free to pursue their mission — to pray, rest, or explore,” he added.
This new opening is part of Rubystone’s broader strategy to expand into spiritual and cultural destinations across India. With several development projects already underway, the group plans to announce additional openings in other holy cities over the coming months.
The hotel is now open to guests, with bookings available across all major travel platforms.
