Cheap Guest Houses in Dehradun: tips before you book
Prices are each stay's listed starting price per night, usually for its smallest room. Weekends, long weekends and the summer rush to the hills fill Dehradun first, and prices rise then; quieter months cost less. Staying a week or more? Ask for a weekly rate, many small places will agree.
Cheaper rooms are often simpler, so check the basics before you book: hot water, a fan or AC, Wi-Fi if you need it, and whether the room is up several flights of stairs.
Prefer to book direct? Our own homestays by the Ganges in Rishikesh are pinned near the top of this page, about 45 km by road. Send us your dates and group size and we will help you choose, wherever you end up staying.

Heading up the hill? Compare stays in Mussoorie (about 35 km up the hill road), see stays in Rishikesh (about 45 km away by road), look at our own handpicked homestays, or send us your dates and we'll suggest a stay.
Our area lines are drawn with a local's pencil, not a surveyor's, so a stay near the border might sit one neighbourhood over. Rates rise on weekends, long weekends, school holidays and the summer rush to the hills, so give the property a quick check before you pack.
