Lack of cleanliness: Upon arrival at the hotel we had to ask the staff twice to replace the bedsheets, pillowcases, pillows (blackened by sweat/grime) AND clean the bathroom, which had a smell of urine & naphthalene (insecticide NOT to be touched with bare hands) and a shower full of mold! To top things off, after 2pm of the checkin day there was an unbearable smell of turpentine in our room from unannounced-to-us paintworks on our floor. We had no option, but to leave the hotel for a good 3 hrs until the smell subsides, upon agreement with management that these works had to stop, as they presented a health hazard to guest like us AND staff alike! Breakfast options were very limited, with staff not maintaining basic hygiene (i.e., when requested some tea they stopped their snacking, opened a box and pulled a bag with their hands dropping it in a cup, adding hot water to top). The manager did try to “comfort” us with a basket of snacks, which we left aside, as I feel a moral obligation to protect fellow travellers by providing our negative experience at this establishment, that needs to work a lot to meet basic standards of hygiene, sanitisation & cleanliness..

the hoteliers extracted extra money than the specific amount mentioned while booking.

Hotel cleaning is horrible. The hotel is pretty dirty. They only wipe floors. No vacum cleaner. So there is old dust dirt around corners. If you look closely there is hair :(( sheets are stained. Pillows and beds are slightly smelly. Beds are old. You can feel the iron. Bed head wall and doors full of stains. Bathroom tile and corners have blackened silicone and mold. Aircon is loud and smelly. The fan in the room is ok but too loud to sleep with. Windows dont open, even if you get them open there is so much filth outside of it, i cannot begin to describe. I booked 3 nights. Wanted to cout due to dirtiness as soon as i arrived. Hotel staff made effort for me to stay. Promised to fix everything. But I couldn't stand it. We informed staff we would c/out 1 night before and just stay 2 nights on our day of arrival. They refused to return us our money despite the poor service. Not cool.

Location is central. Car doesnt go in but hotel staff helps you carry the luggage. Food is ok. Mosquito plug was thoughtful.

Staff

Stayed in June 2024

Untidy rooms. Lift not working. Water supply only 2 hrs a day. Approach to the hotel pathetic and stinking with open sewage. Even after staying there and being in possession of the receipt, stay shown as cancelled with reason that we didn’t turn up. Property rating overhyped and may be manipulated. Beware of this property.

We booked onto two tours, one for the city tour and one for the morning aarti. However, we were disappointed with both. The driver for the aarti was late, so we missed the aarti and didn't go on a boat trip. The city tour felt rushed and although our guide was knowledgeable about religion, he felt the quality of information about the city was lacking.

The waiting staff were excellent and very attentive.

Stayed in October 2023

Location is in a narrow road where it’s hard for taxis to go in. Breakfast is not up to the mark and same menu everyday.

Pretty much everything good.

The location, being inside a few narrow gullies

The ambience and food, though the hotel property is a bit inside from main road in narrow gullies.... But the ambience inside is great and buffet breakfast was also good ...

Stayed in July 2023

We had to drag our suitcases from main road to hotel where narrow road did not have access to hotel. That narrow road is all nasty. One Receptionist was almost rude but he needs more training. For bag packers this hotel is good not for families who have suitcases.

Room service and Restaurant staff and food

Stayed in May 2023

Approach road was very narrow. Car/Taxi cannot go to the Hotel entrance, and you will have to carry your luggage from Main road to Hotel. Food was average, as Roti was very hard to eat. Ghats were at a walkable distance, but the roads were so narrow and dirty that it's not worth walking, and it's better to go by Auto from main road. Price was too high for the value it offers.

Room was spacious and clean. Staff was courteous. Food was served hot, though we reached hotel late in the evening, after 09:30 pm.

Stayed in March 2023

The service is great and staff is good but I guess they should add more items in breakfast. Very limited options. The room service was slow but once I reported they fixed it immediately. Overall I would strongly recommend this place.

Finding a hotel in Varanasi which has lift specially if you are travelling with Senior citizen or someone with disabilities is very difficult. This hotel has lift. They also have fire safety measures. Please don't worry at all if you have never been to Varanasi before. They will help you in everything possible. They will also arrange auto or tuk tuk at 1am for Mangal aarti. Hot water is switched on upon request anytime. Very safe place to stay and specially if you stay in hotels that are on main road, you cannot sleep due to honking this city has. This hotel is 700 meters away from main road and peaceful. They also arrange pick from railway station or airport at additional cost.

My room didnt have a window, but I just was unfortunate because the room next to mine had one.

Staff in primis, very friendly. They did help us in everything, from exchange money to arrange transport to the Airport. The hotel is very close to assi ghat. Breakfast was good, room big and clean.

Breakfast, localization, price, bathroom.

The bathroom did not smell well. The hotel could improve the cleaness.

GYANENDRA is a very nice employee. The hotel was very responsive to our requests.

Stayed in December 2022

The booking system is a little complicated. When I was about to arrive to the hotel they contacted me couple of times to check if I was coming, which was the case but these messages made feel unsecured about my reservation till I reached the hotel.

Well located, helpful staff and very clean place.
