    I had a wonderful stay at Bononi. It was a peaceful oasis away from the business of Jorhat. The staff were welcoming and friendly, the room clean and comfortable, and the food fresh and delicious. Great location of your wanting to catch the ferry...

Dilip Kumar Goswami and Jyotimali Mahanta
Bononi is a guest house located on the outskirts of Jorhat town. The owners Dilip and Jyoti,(two retired professionals) stay on the first floor with rooms for guests on the ground floor and a backyard garden that extends to a fish pond. The in-house kitchen serves delicious food to the guests made with most of the herbs and vegetables grown organically in the property, and above all, with utmost care. There is a common sitting space with a television and kitchenette. Set amidst village surroundings, Bononi (meaning grasslands) has many corners to laze around for a day or two before venturing to places like Majuli (12.7 km to ferry service), Hoollongapar Gibbon Sanctuary, (22.6 km), Sivasagar (54.2 km), Mokokchung (103 km) and Kaziranga National Park (119 km). Jorhat is well connected by road to explore upper-Assam, Arunachal Pradesh and Nagaland. Bononi staff can help you plan itineraries over the phone or once you arrive. People looking to stay for longer duration and work away from their busy schedules, in a quiet environment, are most welcome to negotiate tariffs. Near the backyard garden is a laptop friendly, well-lit, partially open workspace with tea and coffee, and wifi. We are unable to accept bookings for people from JORHAT district of Assam, except in case of emergencies, for which kindly contact us before booking. We will not be liable to accept guests from the above places upon their arrival at Bononi premises. Bononi has its own policy and guidelines for guests. Guests are requested to ask for the same before booking to avoid any doubt regarding facilities and restrictions etc. Bononi is NOT couple friendly.
