Where is Guwahati airport in relation to the hotel?

Guwahati’s airport is Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport. The drive from the airport to the hotel takes about 60 minutes. Use that as an arrival-time reference, not a guarantee of how long a particular trip will take.

The hotel offers a choice of rooms.
How do you get from Guwahati airport to the hotel?

Airport transport options include app-based cabs, prepaid taxis, local taxis, auto-rickshaws and buses. The airport’s transport information places several services at Terminal 1; app-based cabs and rental taxis can be boarded from the cityside arrival area.
AAI operates an air-conditioned ASTC bus from the airport to Paltan Bazar via Kamakhya and Guwahati Railway Station. Its published details give operating hours of 08:00 to 21:30, intervals of 30 to 45 minutes and a fare of ₹115, with the booking counter in the arrival hall.
Paltan Bazar is also the area of the hotel’s address, but the bus information does not specify a stop at the hotel itself.
AAI’s prepaid-taxi fare table gives approximately 25 km and ₹580 to Paltan Bazar/Guwahati Railway Station. AAI also confirms Ola and Uber facilities at the airport. Other airport transport options include WTI Cab, SMARTO Cab, taxis associated with the Guwahati Airport Taxi Association and government AC bus service.
Auto-rickshaws are available from a dedicated parking zone. The airport says they are at Terminal 1 and fares are metered, with a fare chart in each auto-rickshaw. Check the pickup point and fare arrangements at the airport before choosing one.
What should you check before choosing a ride?

Confirm the service’s pickup point, destination and fare before you leave the terminal. For buses, check that the Paltan Bazar route and departure suit your arrival; for an app-based cab or taxi, make sure you are heading to the hotel. If you choose an auto-rickshaw, use the meter and consult its fare chart.
Published bus fares differ by direction: AAI gives ₹115 for the airport-to-Paltan Bazar service, while the Assam State Transport Corporation timetable gives ₹100 for a Paltanbazar-to-airport journey. Those figures describe opposite directions, so confirm the fare for your trip rather than assuming they match.
Transport details, fares and operating arrangements can change. Check the official site before you go: consult the Airports Authority of India and Guwahati airport transport information for current airport services.
How should you plan for traffic and arrival time?

Use the approximately 60-minute drive from Hotel Atithi to the airport as a planning reference in either direction, not a fixed transfer promise. Allow room in your schedule for the journey to take longer, especially when coordinating a bus, flight or another timed connection.
If you are taking the ASTC bus, account for its stated 30-to-45-minute intervals as well as the trip from the airport to Paltan Bazar. For a wider city plan, how to spend one day in central Guwahati can help you connect your arrival with time in the city.
If you are taking a cab or taxi, confirm the pickup location and destination once you are in the arrival area. Leaving time for those steps makes your arrival plan easier to adjust.
