Khajuraho
In Khajuraho the temples have been divided into the Western, Eastern and Southern groups with the most important and impressive shrines belonging to the Western group.
Since the latter is located in the bustling tourist areas of the town, it is best to stay near the western group for easy access to the temples. Here's my recommendation of where to stay in Khajuraho:
