please wait...Translate to EnglishShirdi temple is like 3km away from the railway station. Usually, the small auto rickshaws will charge you about 100 rupees for 4-5 people. But those bigger APE autos may charge you up to 150 rupees for 8-9 people. If you're in a group, you can try bargaining for 20 rupees per person. Before getting into the auto, make sure you confirm your destination in Shirdi. With this fare, you can ask them to drop you off at any hotel or location where you made a reservation in advance. These auto drivers might try to mislead you about the hotel's location or prices. They might say that the hotel you booked isn't good, far from the temple, or expensive, and then they'll take you to hotels where they'll get a commission.
If you want accommodation in Shirdi, you can book in advance through the Saibaba Sansthan website. They have rooms starting from 200 to 1200 rupees. The rooms in Dwaravati Bhaktinivas are good and clean, and they start at 500 rupees. If you can't book a room online, you can go for private hotels or guesthouses in Shirdi.
If you're looking for a room on a low budget, you can try the Kotegalli or Chavadi area. The room rents there start from 300 rupees. It's very close to the temple but a little far from the main road, so you'll have to walk.
Alternatively, you can check out Kankuri road, Pimpalwadi road, or Hedgevar Nagar for good budget hotels starting from 500 rupees. Personally, I prefer staying in Kankuri road or Pimpalwadi road. There are also many hotels on the highway, but they can be quite noisy and disruptive.
Just go straight to any hotel and you'll get the best rate. In Shirdi, these touts and auto drivers will try to misguide you, so be careful.
