Mathura/Vrindavan

How long might one want to spend in this/these places? A day? half a day? two days and a night?

Can anyone recommend a nice hotel/guest-house?

Thanks

I can't really answer your questions, but other people may need more info.

What's your budget for a hotel?

What do you want to see?

I went to Vrindavan and was met by a big Hari Krishna world get-together, needless to say, an hour was enough for me, I just wasn't in the mood to smile, hold hands and tinkle with bells.

I'm with you on that one, Steven. Unfortunately my girlfriend wouldn't be...

Right now I honestly have no idea what she wants to see (she's two continents away right now, travelling tomorrow...). But she's into Krishna so I guess temples. She'd probably want to get me to meditate on an ashram, but it's not really my cup of tea...

Budget for accom? Generally I guess I'd be looking at +/- Rs 800 (a bit more in more expensive towns, a bit less in cheaper places, which I imagine Vrindavan would be, with all that peace and love going around...)
