Budget
Kiran Guest House
Clean rooms with attached bathrooms. 24 hours hot water. All the rooms have solar powered lights and some have solar powered fans, which can come in handy because the regular power goes out regularly.. It is run by a family and is in a very quiet location. There is a roof top restaurant where you can view both the sunrise and sunset.
Shanthi Guest House
Is situated across the river tungabhadra. after you cross the river, take a left and at the end of the lane, as you walk besides paddy fields, is the shanthi guest house. this is a nice place to relax, as it offers cottage-style accommodation. it is managed by krishna and rao. the prices are around rs.650 back side room- 1200 having river view per room as of oct 2010. shanthi doesn't have a good restaurant and food/service isn't very good, which is only negative point of shanthi. their phone number is +918394-325352.

Most guest houses in Hampi are rather basic. Do not expect too much. Avoid places recommended in the Lonely Planet guide, because they immediately raise their rates and lower their quality. A lot of cheaper guest houses are situated across the river on the Hampi Island Virupapur Gaddi, popularly known as the 'Hippie Island'.check prperly the guest house near bus stand , as those are ill miantained and not properly clean
Sai Plaza
A nice river view guest house situated just across the river. It has nice thatched-roof rooms, oriental look, and river-side location. Rooms have double beds, attached bathrooms, swing bed. Multi-cuisine restaurant, where you can relax on mattresses, listen to music while ordering
Sree Rama Guest House
Is close to the main temple offers decent accommodation with private bathroom. from the bazaar, turn right just in front of the main temple and then follow the main road. the hotel also gives electronic mosquito killers for free. the internet downstairs is one of the best in hampi. room charge is rs.200-250 per night jan. 2008
Vicky's
Charges around rs. 500 per room jan. 2008 and has a mediocre rooftop restaurant. the rooms are not the cleanest and the bathroom definitely needs refurbishment. there are three computers downstairs and only the one on the left is in working condition. the other two are very slow. it used to be good until all the tourists swarmed into it under the guide of lonely planet.
