During my stay at this grand hotel, I appreciated the spacious and clean rooms, which provided a comfortable escape from the bustling streets of Varanasi. The proximity to the Vishwanath Temple and the Ghats was a huge plus, making it easy to explore. However, I found the service quite lacking, especially with the staff being unresponsive to basic requests. Overall, it's a decent place to stay, but the service could really use some improvement.

I had a decent stay at this hotel, with clean and tidy rooms that provided a comfortable retreat after busy days exploring Varanasi. The location is a big plus, being close to several temples and the Ganges. However, the service left something to be desired, as the staff seemed to prioritize chatting amongst themselves over attending to guests, and the restaurant experience was not great, particularly regarding breakfast options. Overall, while it has its charm, it’s not without its faults.

Rooms

The rooms on the top floor were particularly clean and tidy, well-insulated from external noise, which was a blessing given the bustling environment of Varanasi.
Service

The service was pretty lackluster; I found it odd that even a simple request for ginger tea was not fulfilled, and it felt like the staff was more focused on their own conversations than serving guests.
Location

The location is quite convenient, situated near many important temples and the Ganges, making it easy to explore the area. Plus, I got dropped off right at the hotel entrance, which is a big advantage compared to others who struggled to find their place.
Dining

My dining experience was a bit of a letdown; breakfast felt like a rip-off in terms of value, and I expected more variety and quality.

Facilities were acceptable, though not particularly standout. The hotel requires some improvement in this area to match its overall appeal.

I had a great time at the hotel, which was nestled in a fantastic location making it convenient to explore nearby attractions. The rooms were mostly clean and sound-proof, allowing for a peaceful night's sleep. However, some areas felt a bit cramped, making the room experience less ideal. The dining options were a hit or miss, with some delicious choices but also a few that didn’t impress. Overall, it provided decent value for money, even if there’s room for improvement in a couple of areas.

The hotel has a stunning view of the main square near the temple, and the rooms are generally quite nice. While the service was a bit uneven, with some professional staff and some lacking experience, the location is definitely a standout feature, being very close to the main ghats and local eateries. Overall, it feels like a good value for the experience, but there are definitely areas for improvement.

While I found some staff members to be very accommodating, my request for ginger tea was surprisingly not met. The professional kind really helped organize visits around Varanasi.
Location

The location is excellent, just a stone's throw from the temple and the main ghat. It’s vibrant and lively, but I do think they should install grills on the windows for safety.

During my stay, I found the hotel to be in a fantastic location near the Ganges, making it easy to explore local attractions like The Vishwanath Temple. While the room was decent and sound-proofed from street noise, the service was lacking, and I faced some issues with the dining options. Overall, the value for money was reasonable, but there’s definitely room for improvement in terms of service and dining variety.
