Comfortable place to stay in Varanasi
Pros:

The team who work here are so friendly and helpful. They did everything they could to make our 7 nights in Varanasi comfortable.

The hotel is located just off a main road down a short alley. The alley is perfectly safe, well lit and has shops in it.

Rooms are comfortable enough. Bed linen and towels were clean. Room was cleaned whenever we wanted it done. Bathroom was basic but functional. Shower worked well and plenty of hot water.

Smart TV and efficient air con contributed to comfort of stay.

Property is well located - plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. Considering the location it is very quiet and sleep quality was generally good. Not too far to walk to ghats - if you can negotiate the crowds!

Reception organised for our laundry to be collected and done - excellent job and cheapest we had in India!

It was like an oasis of calm after the madness of Varanasi.

Cons:

The noise from other guests!!

Vores bedste anbefaling til et ophold i Varanasi.
Pros:

Det var et perfekt hotel med et meget hjælpsomt og venligt personale. Der var en god skraber på badeværelset. :-)
Vi fik 2 flasker vand om dagen og tilbud om rene håndklæder.

Good value for money in every way
Pros:

Well behaved and helpful staff, location, comfortable room though street sounds carry on till very late night, ease of booking, airport pick up though you have to walk 400mt to the hotel if you arrive after 8am or before 9pm.

Cons:

No restaurant or breakfast. You can order food to your room from a nearby restaurant after 10am. There are lots of eating options around the hotel as it is located in Gowdholia

Will stay again
Pros:

Great infrastructure. Staff was friendly and very helpful. Room was very clean. Hot water was plentiful and very welcome in Jan winter. Room had central HVAC and heated. Food is available on demand. All in all, unassuming exterior but great rooms inside.

Cons:

Taxis etc drop you little distance since there is prohibition on 4 wheelers and autos in that area. But I called hotel and they sent a person to help with bags. So getting to hotel is bit involved and difficult to find on your own. Also we did not know that heating is available in the room. Good idea for hotel to give an overview of amenities when entering the room.

歩いてガンジス川へ行ける!
Pros:

場所がわからず困っていたところ宿の方が迎えにきてくれてとても助かりました!
入り組んだところにあるので車では近くまで行けないので事前に調べておくことをお勧めします。
そのかわりすぐ街へ出れる距離です!
スタッフの方も程よい距離感でわからないことを聞くとわかりやすく親切に答えてくれます。お祭りの情報なども教えてくれていい宿です!

Cons:

1日目の夜に他の部屋の方が大盛り上がりで、少し壁が薄いのかなと思いました。
