Choose the best of the best stays
A single day is rarely enough to see all of Ramoji Film City. The studio tour, the shows, the parks and the evening programme fill a whole day, and many families leave tired before the lights come on. Staying overnight inside the film city solves this. You get two relaxed days, no long drive back at night, and time to use the hotel pool and gardens. This guide explains the stay options inside Ramoji Film City, what a stay package usually includes and how to pick the right hotel for your group.
Why stay inside Ramoji Film City
- No rushing: split the attractions over two days and see the evening shows without worrying about the drive home.
- Good for families: children and elderly parents can rest in the afternoon and go back out when it is cooler.
- Everything in one place: restaurants, gardens and the film sets are close to the hotels, and transport inside the campus is arranged by the film city.
- Events: the hotels also host weddings, birthday parties, corporate meets and college groups.
Types of stay at Ramoji Film City
The film city runs its own hotels across price levels. The official list today names Sitara (luxury), Tara (comfort), Shantiniketan (budget), Greens Inn, Sahara (shared stay for groups) and Vasundhara Villa (a farmhouse style stay). Each hotel is described in its own section on this page, so here is a quick way to group them:
| Budget | Suits | Hotels |
|---|---|---|
| Luxury | Couples, honeymooners, corporate guests | Sitara |
| Mid-range | Families who want comfort at a fair price | Tara, Greens Inn |
| Budget | Families and small groups watching costs | Shantiniketan |
| Group and dormitory | School and college trips, large groups | Sahara |
| Private villa | Large families, small functions | Vasundhara Villa |
What a Ramoji stay package usually includes
The film city mostly sells rooms as stay packages rather than room-only bookings. Inclusions differ by hotel and season, but a typical package has:
- Room for one or two nights with check-in and check-out times fixed by the hotel.
- Entry tickets to Ramoji Film City for the days of your stay.
- Breakfast, and in many packages lunch or dinner as well.
- Transfers inside the campus between the hotel and the tour starting point.
- In higher categories, a guided tour in an AC coach and priority entry to shows.
Rates change with the season. Weekends, the summer Holiday Carnival, Diwali, Christmas and New Year are the costliest times, and rooms sell out early.
How to choose your hotel
- Who is travelling: a couple and a school group need very different rooms. Match the hotel type to the group first.
- What is included: compare meals and ticket inclusions, not just the room rate. A cheaper room with no meals can cost more in the end.
- Dates: book two to four weeks ahead for weekends and festival periods.
- Rules: ask about extra bed charges, child age limits and ID requirements at check-in.

Dolphin Hotels (Ramoji group hotels)
The old version of this page listed a Dolphin Hotel inside Ramoji Film City as its most expensive hotel. That is not correct. Dolphin Hotels Limited is the Ramoji group company that runs the Film City hotels such as Sitara and Tara. The hotel named Dolphin is in Visakhapatnam, not in the Film City.
For a premium stay at the Film City, choose Sitara, with its suites and multi-cuisine restaurant. GoldBox Holidays can help you book it with a Ramoji stay package.
