    You can walk from Eden Gardens to Victoria Memorial in about 30 40 minutes, then hop on a local bus or a cheap auto rickshaw to Howrah Bridge. For a quick, cheap place to sleep near all three spots, the Polo Floatel Kolkata is only 0.6 km away and usually has reasonable rates for a short stay. It keeps you within walking distance of the stadium and the memorial, saving on transport.
