Hotel near Tipu Sultan's Summer Palace & Bangalore Fort

History lovers visiting Bangalore have two must-see monuments at the top of their list — Tipu Sultan's Summer Palace and the remains of the Bangalore Fort. Both are within a 10-minute walk of RRR Residency. Tipu Sultan's Summer Palace, completed in 1791, is a beautiful two-storied ornate teakwood structure with intricately carved pillars, arches and balconies. It served as Tipu Sultan's summer retreat and is now a protected monument under the Archaeological Survey of India. Right next to it is the Bangalore Fort, originally built in mud by Kempegowda I in 1537 and later rebuilt in stone by Hyder Ali in 1761. Together they offer a window into the 18th-century history of the city. RRR Residency, located just 600 meters away, is the closest budget hotel for heritage tourists. Visit Tipu's Palace and the Fort in the morning, the Kote Venkataramana Temple and KR Market in the afternoon, and head out to Lalbagh or Cubbon Park by evening — all from one convenient base. AC and Non-AC rooms available from ₹1200 per night, with free Wi-Fi and 24-hour hot water.
