A Day Through the Eyes of the Guests at the Krishna Valley Guesthouses

There is a place among the rolling hills of Somogy where mornings begin differently. Instead of the news’ clamour, the sound of birds wakes you up here. Spicy aromas drift from the kitchen, and even the sun rises differently, as if asking for time to properly illuminate this special world.

Let’s take a look at a day through the eyes of the guests at the Krishna Valley Guesthouses!

Morning: peaceful awakening, with aromas

The visitors are waking up under warm blankets in the guest rooms. The breakfast is fresh, warm, and the same as what the monks eat—sharing a table as part of the community. One guest wrote:
“What I loved about the breakfast was that it’s the same as the monks’—no difference at all.” I loved being there. “A fantastic place, with fantastic energy, and friendly, helpful devotees.”

Morning: Encounters and Exploration

In the late morning, many people visit the temple, while others tour the garden or go for a quiet walk on the hills. It’s not just the scenery that is stunning here, but also the people—they approach you with sincere focus.

“Everyone was very open, kind, accepting, and helpful!” “I received very helpful answers to my questions, and I would like to meet them again on my next visit.”

Lunchtime: Tastes to Nourish Body and Spirit

Lunch is not merely a meal. The food here has a soul, and so does the hospitality.

“I am once again very grateful for the clean, peaceful, warm accommodation, and for the food, which once again stole all my senses.” “I had the chance to spend another fantastic 4 days with you, for which I’m also very thankful.”

Afternoon: Relaxation, Quiet, and Introspection

Some retreat to a bench to read, while others settle into a shady corner of the guesthouse. The sunlight is softer at this time, and the air grows still.

“The surroundings are stunning, a heaven on earth.” “The flowers and the aromas accompanied us everywhere; we almost couldn’t get enough of them.” “A piece of India in Hungary—enchanting for us.”

Evening: Serenity, Gratitude, and Departure

The evenings grow quiet, and the silence has a presence—not a heavy one, but a comforting caress. Guests often feel that something inside them has changed.

“I would like to express my gratitude for everything I’ve gained! For the opportunity to see into your lives, as you guided me with such pure love and sincerity. I am grateful for my conversation with the monk, it was very uplifting.”


And when it is time for departure…

Most find it hard to start their journey back. Some long to return even from the train station.

“If I just write that upon leaving the Somogyvár train station, I would rather have turned back toward the valley, I think I’ve said everything.”

Just one day – yet a fresh start for countless people

The Krishna Valley Guesthouses are more than just a place to stay. It is a sanctuary in the chaotic world, where people can rediscover presence, mindfulness, and thankfulness. And we’re not the ones saying this—it’s those who have already visited.

“A wonderful place with wonderful people.” “If you love nature, tranquility, and silence, this is where you belong.”


Some visit for a day, others for a week, but most take something with them from here that lasts a lifetime. A fregrence. A smile. A feeling that “it was wonderful being here.” If you also yearn for this tranquility, you know where to go… We look forward to seeing you!
