Good to know: Jejuri is about 50 km from Pune, so most travellers stay in Pune and drive down. This gives you the full range of hotels, hospitals and restaurants. Allow roughly 1.5 to 2 hours each way, depending on traffic.
02
Saswad
Best for: Combining Jejuri with Saswad, Purandar and Malhargad

03
Jejuri town

Along the Pune–Saswad road
Best for: Travellers who want to break the journey
Good to know: A few roadside hotels and resorts lie between Pune and Jejuri. Verify current reviews and availability before booking.

Before you book

Ask for a lift, or a ground-floor room — many heritage hotels have steps and no lift.
Check how far the hotel is from the sights you care about, in minutes by road, not kilometres.
Prefer free cancellation until close to the date, in case plans or health change.
Look for 24-hour reception, in-house dining and a doctor-on-call policy.
Read recent reviews for noise — old-city streets and wedding venues can be loud late.
