BrijRama Palace, Varanasi - by the Ganges
The chai and lassi served at the hotel were by far the best I've ever tasted during my travels—rich, creamy, and absolutely delicious. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate our requests with genuine warmth and efficiency. Every detail felt personal and thoughtful, making the stay feel truly special. It's rare to find such hospitality combined with such a memorable culinary experience. I wouldn't hesitate to return, and I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Varanasi.
Kedareswar B&B
Staying at Kedareswar B&B was an absolute delight. Just a short walk from Harishchandra Ghat, it’s incredibly convenient for exploring the city. The owner speaks excellent Japanese and comes across as genuinely warm and attentive—so easy to chat with. I booked a morning guided tour, and he went above and beyond with detailed explanations and local insights. One highlight was the chai shop he recommended—it’s his regular spot, and honestly, the best cup of tea I had during my entire trip. Rich, aromatic, and perfectly balanced. I left feeling not just satisfied, but truly welcomed. Would love to host him in Japan someday—this place truly feels like home away from home.
De Bougain Villa
Staying at De Bougain Villa in Varanasi was an absolute delight. The location is perfect—just a short distance from the city center, making it easy to explore the vibrant streets and sacred sites on foot or by local transport. We arrived late for check-in, but the staff were incredibly understanding and accommodating without any hassle. The villa itself is cozy, clean, and beautifully decorated with authentic local charm. It felt like a true home away from home. What stood out most was the warm hospitality and attention to detail—everything was thoughtfully arranged. For travelers seeking a peaceful yet central base in Varanasi, this place is a top choice. Highly recommend it!
Hotel Varanasi Inn
The staff were incredibly professional and friendly—always attentive without being intrusive. The hotel was spotlessly clean and well-organized, making the whole experience feel seamless. They’d check in gently to see how I was doing or if I needed anything, but never overstepped. I felt safe and comfortable throughout my stay, especially as a solo traveler. The location is fantastic—right in the heart of Varanasi, just steps away from key sights and local charm. It’s rare to find such a welcoming, secure, and thoughtfully-run place. I’d absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting this incredible city.
Ganges Grand
Staying at Ganges Grand in Varanasi was an unforgettable experience. The staff, especially customer service representative Ajit Singh, went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. From the moment we arrived, he made us feel welcome with genuine care and attention to detail. He personally checked in on each guest, making sure everyone enjoyed their meals and had a memorable time. The restaurant offers authentic Indian flavors with a view of the sacred Ganges River—truly a unique and serene dining experience. The hospitality, cleanliness, and overall atmosphere are outstanding. I’d highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Varanasi. It’s not just a place to stay—it’s a journey into culture and warmth. Would definitely return.
Dwivedi Hotels Sri Omkar Palace
Staying at Sri Omkar Palace was like stepping into a spiritual adventure—raw, real, and full of character. The view from the room? Well, almost a ghats glimpse: lean forward, squint hard, and you might just catch a sliver of the Ganges peeking through power lines and laundry strung between neighboring windows. The shower? A true lottery—either icy cold or scalding hot, as if Lord Shiva himself was tweaking the faucet. Internet? It exists… somewhere nearby, not quite here. But the staff? Absolutely heartwarming. Especially the front desk guy who seemed to be napping—but claimed he was meditating on bookings. Pure vibes. From the balcony, you’re serenaded by mantras, monkey calls, and sacred bells—the authentic soundtrack of Varanasi. If you're after comfort, head to an ashram. But if you're seeking stories, soul, and a touch of chaos with your spirituality, this is where you belong. We left feeling different—maybe it was the water, maybe it was the energy. Either way, we were changed.
Hotel Banaras Haveli
Staying at Hotel Banaras Haveli was an absolute delight from start to finish. The location is perfect—just a short walk from Assi Ghat and situated right on the main road, making it easy to explore the city on foot. The rooms are spacious, beautifully decorated, and impeccably clean, offering a comfortable retreat after a day of sightseeing. The staff went above and beyond with their warm hospitality and prompt service. But what truly made our trip unforgettable was the rooftop restaurant with its breathtaking views of the Ganges River—especially magical at sunset. We also had the pleasure of being guided by Ajay Pandey, whose knowledge, professionalism, and genuine kindness made all the difference. He was always available, incredibly helpful, and made us feel completely at ease throughout our stay. This hotel isn’t just a place to sleep—it’s a gateway to authentic Varanasi experiences. Highly recommend for travelers seeking charm, comfort, and meaningful connections.
Ganga Monastery
I stayed at Ganga Monastery for six nights through a travel agency, and it was one of the most peaceful and memorable experiences I’ve had in Varanasi. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming throughout my entire stay—always ready to help with a smile. Though it’s a bit outside the city center, that’s actually one of its biggest strengths: the serene, quiet atmosphere makes it feel like a true retreat. Facing the Ganges River, the view is simply breathtaking—especially during sunrise and sunset. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone looking to unwind and soak in the spiritual energy of the river at a relaxed pace. It’s also conveniently close to Assi Ghat, where you’ll find a variety of calm, stylish cafes and restaurants perfect for a quiet meal or a cup of chai. Overall, a wonderful balance of tranquility, beauty, and thoughtful hospitality.
Hotel Aadesh Palace
Staying at Hotel Aadesh Palace was an absolute delight. Located just a short walk from Gate No. 4 of the Kashi Vishvanath Temple, it’s perfectly positioned for spiritual travelers and sightseers alike. While vehicles can’t go beyond 500 meters due to restricted access in the temple area, the walk is manageable and part of the experience—offering glimpses of authentic Varanasi life. The rooms were spotless, well-maintained, and incredibly comfortable, making for a restful night's sleep. What truly stood out was the staff—warm, attentive, and genuinely helpful. I especially want to thank the restaurant team (I’m sorry I didn’t catch your name!) for taking the time to explain local attractions and even helping me plan my sightseeing itinerary. Their guidance made my trip so much more meaningful. With excellent food, thoughtful service, and a peaceful atmosphere, this hotel offers great value and a memorable stay. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Varanasi.
Dwivedi Hotels Hotel Elena
Absolutely unforgettable! From the moment I arrived, I knew this place was special. The view of the Ganges from the hotel balcony is simply breathtaking—especially at sunrise when the river glows gold. The staff are incredibly warm and attentive, always greeting guests with a smile. My room was spotless, comfortable, and well-maintained, with just the right mix of modern convenience and local charm. The breakfast was delicious, featuring authentic Indian flavors that made every morning feel like an experience. Best part? The value for money is outstanding—this hotel offers so much more than what you'd expect at this price point. It's also perfectly located for exploring Varanasi, with easy access to public transit. If I ever return to this magical city, this will be my first choice again.
Hotel Rivera Palace
After browsing through countless options, I finally booked this hotel just 50 meters from the Ganges River—slightly nervous at first, but wow, it turned out to be an amazing choice. From airport pickup to daily sightseeing arrangements and even the next-day drop-off, the front desk handled everything seamlessly and with genuine care. The room was spotlessly clean, comfortably furnished, and had a peaceful vibe that made my stay truly relaxing. Being so close to the Ganges added a spiritual touch—waking up early to watch the sunrise by the river was unforgettable. Every detail was thoughtfully managed, and the service felt personal, not transactional. This is definitely a place I’d return to without hesitation. Highly recommend for travelers seeking authenticity and comfort in Varanasi.
Hotel MRK
Thank you so much! This stay was absolutely wonderful, and I can't wait to come back. The staff went above and beyond—warm, welcoming, and treated me like family. Their kindness made the entire experience truly special. Located just minutes from the city center, it's easy to explore Varanasi by local transit, and there are plenty of great dining options nearby. Whether traveling with family or friends, this hotel offers comfort, charm, and excellent value. Highly recommend it to fellow travelers, especially those from Japan. A memorable stay that I’ll definitely revisit.
