About BTH

Udupi is an obscure town of Dakshin Kannada in Karnataka, South India. But people from this area mostly Hindu Brahmins have spread throughout India and even abroad to do catering and lodging businesses. They are famous for their cleanliness and wholesome vegetarian food.

Bharath Hotel formerly known as Bharath Tourist Home or BTH can also be classified as an Udupi hotel, was established by Sri. B. Govinda Rao in 1964. Though born and brought up in Cochin he had his connections in Padubidri near Udupi. Before starting the hotel he had been in catering business from 1940s. BTH was started with 30 rooms, a 40 seats restaurant and a conference hall. The hotel has stuck to its traditional catering business of South Indian Vegetarian cuisine but has changed with the modern times with modern facilities in its rooms and conference halls. The hotel has a set of clientele consisting of the middle level executives, planters and businessmen traveling with their families, and tourists both North Indians and foreigners, coming in groups. As Sri. Rao put it: "most of the customers who frequent the hotel are non-vegetarians".

Former Union Minister Sri. A. M. Thomas, presenting a memento to Sri. B. Govinda Rao at a public meeting held on 12th Oct. 1997 on the occasion of his 80th birthday.
