Good hotel away from the crowds
Pros:

The hotel offers excellent service and care, with very reliable transport facilities. Overall, it’s a great place to stay—spacious rooms and a good gym are definite highlights.

Cons:

This is slightly farther from the Mahabodhi Temple and was a conscious choice on my part, as I wanted to stay away from the din of the main complex. However, if the sole purpose is to be around the complex, it may be more convenient to stay at one of the many hotels closer to the Centre.

Goede keuze
Pros:

De staff is zeer vriendelijk en zeer behulpzaam. Het is een mooi hotel met goed uitgeruste rustige kamers en heerlijke bedden. In het restaurant was voor de vlotte en vrolijke Mr Sushli niets teveel gevraagd en hij zorgde samen met de snelle Mr Rohit voor een perfecte bediening van het lekkere eten. Goede te verduisteren ramen.

Cons:

Denk aan je oordopjes tijdens de huwelijksperioden

A Great Stay ... but
Pros:

Staff were all very polite & helpful.
Meals at the restaurant were top class, especially the Thai food.
My stay however was marred by the frequent power cuts. Not the fault of the hotel but it did have an effect on my ability to maintain contact with my family.

Pros:

Loved it but unfortunately there were frequent power outages. This led to the air conditioning failing occasionally. The reserve power kicked in quickly and kept the ceiling fan going though. This provided relief.
Otherwise it’s a great experience. Hospitality is top notch.

Pros:

I do not really review anything, but I think I’d be my remiss not to mention this absolute gem of a hotel we found. Service, food, the hotel, cleanliness and just general guidance about the city - you name it and you’ll get it. Mr Upadhyay is a gem of a person and really sorted out tour in Varanasi!
Much better than Radisson where I’ve stayed 2 nights - if you find this hotel, do t skip - you’ll be pleased

Pros:

We stayed here for a week. A bit of confusion at the beginning about the room we had a booked. After raising this it was rectified. I would recommended the Club rooms. Found the deluxe room grim.
The restaurant staff were exceptionally helpful and were very friendly, making dining an enjoyable experience. The continental breakfast options were limited and everything on menu was not always available but food was good.
The hotel & rooms very clean and the staff around the hotel were very helpful and friendly.
