La propiedad — Space Tower
Space Tower is a no-frills 3-star business hotel near the rail station, aimed squarely at transit travellers and budget-conscious families. The lobby feels like a modest airport lounge: clean tile floors, a reception desk with a single computer, and a few plastic chairs. Its main draw is location — five minutes' walk from Barddhaman Junction — not charm. Suits anyone needing a clean, functional stopover rather than a destination stay.
Crónicas de Barddhaman
Barddhaman (also Burdwan) was the capital of the Maharajas of Bardhaman Raj, a prominent zamindari estate under the Mughals and British. The city's core was shaped in the 18th and 19th centuries, visible in the Rajbari palace and a handful of colonial-era churches. It later grew as a railway hub and agricultural market, anchored by rice and mustard oil. Today, it remains a mid-sized Bengali town with a busy townscape, known for its sweets (mihidana and sitabhog) and as a gateway to the neighbouring Santal Pargana hills.

Briefing en vivo de la ciudad — Barddhaman
- Barddhaman Junction's platform 1 redevelopment is complete, adding a new waiting hall and food court — useful for train arrivals. The city's new sewage diversion project on GT Road has caused sporadic lane closures near the hotel, allowing extra 10–15 minutes for auto-rickshaw trips from the station. July's heavy rain often floods stretches of NH 19 south of the city; check local traffic updates before driving to Kolkata.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Space Tower, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request rooms on floors 3 or 4, facing the rear courtyard rather than the street. These floors are high enough to avoid ground-level noise but still within easy reach by stairs if the lift is busy.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms (floor 1 in Indian numbering) — they suffer from street noise from Raghunathpur road, especially early morning auto-rickshaw traffic and footfall. Also skip rooms directly opposite the lift lobby, as guest chatter and door slams carry.
Best views
Rooms facing the rear or side of the building give a view of the surrounding residential area and small trees — not grand but far calmer than the street view onto Raghunathpur road.
Quietest floors
Floor 3 and floor 4 are quietest — above street-level sounds and below possible roof-access footfall if there's a terrace.
🔊 Noise notes
Raghunathpur is a local arterial road in Barddhaman, moderate traffic from early morning (5.30-6am) with auto-rickshaws, two-wheelers, and occasional trucks. Evening noise may peak 7-9pm. Ask for a room away from the street-facing front.
Insider tips
1. Parking is limited to on-street or a small forecourt — arrive with the front desk about 2pm when staff can help direct you to a safe spot. 2. Request a room on floor 3 or 4 at booking; the staff often can assign it if you mention 'quiet' and 'back side'. No lift key card needed, so you can use stairs easily.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

💡 The gate is best photographed between 4pm and 5pm when the traffic is lighter and the sun hits the western side. No entry inside, just admire from the pavement.
💡 Bring your own water and snacks — the lone tea stall near the gate is overpriced. Best time is 4pm to 6pm when the heat drops and local kids play cricket.
💡 Visit early morning, around 6am, when the temple opens and the light is soft on the carvings. Weekdays are far calmer than Sundays.
💡 The museum section is small but the courtyard and outer walls are free to wander. Ask the caretaker to show you the old armoury — sometimes he'll open it for a small tip.
💡 The planetarium shows are in Bengali only, so check language schedule at the ticket counter. Aim to arrive right at 10am opening to avoid school groups.
