The Ratan Resort
A comfortable room near retreat practice
Pushkar works best at walking pace, and The Ratan Resort’s main appeal is its proximity to an ashram. Guests can stay in comfortable, bright rooms a short walk from the retreat setting, without making the journey between lodging and practice a major part of the day. The resort is best understood as accommodation alongside an ashram program, rather than as a meditation school with a stated teaching tradition of its own. If you are choosing a retreat, confirm the ashram’s schedule, teaching language, meals and included activities before making plans. For travelers who value a comfortable base close to the practice space, the arrangement sounds straightforward and convenient. Pushkar’s compact town atmosphere leaves room to wander between sessions, while the resort offers a place to return to and rest.
