Staff was awesome at helping me with many questions. Facilities were good & comfortable. The immediate location is dirty but very centrally located and enough off the main 24/7 road to make it more relaxing. Breakfast was excellent. The only issue for me was having a room next to reception so I heard the doorbell a lot. The local power grid is a bit unreliable but works most of the time.

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Room was located on the ground floor right outside a 24/7 reception which made for a restless night. It also backed directly onto the street which had a constant stream of motorbike exhaust coming through the vents. The hotel generally is also located in a hard to find spot, in the backstreets, unable to be reached by any mode of transport other than walking - challenging for anyone with a suitcase, without a strong sense of direction or female travellers who may feel uncomfortable trekking the back alleys. A broken shower with no hot water and damp towels on arrival also made for an uncomfortable stay. Otherwise staff were helpful, breakfast options were good, snacks & bottled water were complimentary and the space was relatively clean. But not worth the cost to stay.

Abhijeet, the manager was unfailingly courteous and friendly and provided superb service. The area around the hotel is blocked off to taxis and is on a pedestrian lane and he was gracious enough to send a porter to meet my Rick Shaw to guide me to the hotel. Subsequently, he sent a porter with my luggage to the pick up point for my Uber to the airport. Outstanding service well done! The hotel doesn’t look like much on the outside, but the rooms are very attractive with plenty of hot water and an excellent breakfast is provided free of charge. Furthermore, the hotel is five minutes walk from the ghats and one minute walk from the main street.

It’s very sad to have to say that this place was horrible. If they would spend some time doing maintenance in the hotel it could be so much better. The walls were dirty, the bathroom as well. The area around the property is disgusting. I don’t know how no one mentions the amount of flies here. Also it is so hard to find. It is close to the river but I wouldn’t really stay here again. The best thing about this place was the staff, they were very kind and helpful and the breakfast was nice too. Other than that everything was so dirty and again the hotel is so hard to find even the locals have a hard time finding it and you need to walk to it if you take an uber because there is a space where the cars cannot go in.

スタッフが親切でフレンドリーでした。旧市街の中にあるので、旧市街やガンジス川沿いの散策を堪能するのに適したホテルです。また表通りから少し路地を入った場所にあるので比較的静かです。 ホテル内にはエレベータが無いので、エレベータを必要としている方は要注意です。

立地がよい

ガートから近く便利な位置にある。 ホテルのホスピタリティも素晴らしい！ 部屋はこじんまりとしていてよかったが、シャワー室は外とつながっており、とにかく虫がたくさんいた。また、3階だったのでwifiが繋がらなかった。 ホテルの前には牛や犬が多く、フンがたくさん落ちている。

おすすめします

バラナシの路地にあります。主要なポイントならどこへ行くのも路地を歩いて行けます。宿は清潔ですし、Mr.Abhijeet を含めとてもホスピタリティは高いです。場所は自動車のたどり着ける交差点（Girja Ghar交差点）から5分程度歩きます。空港から有料の送迎も可能です。朝食は一階の狭い部屋でいつも私たちだけで、Pohaが美味しいので毎日リクエストしてました。停電がたまに起きますが30分ほど経てば解消します。

Varanasi, a vibrant experience

Location wise it’s good - close to the Ghats and Temples either by walk or by rickshaws. The only thing that puts you off is the smelly and cow dung splattered lanes. Competition between people, vehicles & cows in the roads / lanes to the Ghats is very high. The authorities need to do something about it. It’s chaotic! If you are interested in buying sarees - we took up the suggestions of an electric riskshaw and a manual rickshaw drivers to take us to a saree manufacturer’s shop on 2 different occasions and found them to be genuine and good.
