Pros:

Very conveniently located but entry and exit are challenging due to surrounding security restrictions. Not many people know this property by southern grand Kasi, they call it Bhimas Shankar Guest House.

Felt like staying at Dharamshala. Transport to commute other parts of the city and too much safety protocol is added pa
Pros:

Location is within the premises of Vishwanath temple and infrastructure is very good

Cons:

1. No transport facility arranged by hotel , there should be dedicated transport arrangement from Maidaghan chowk, also the pick up and drop facility from airport .
2. Too much security protocol.
3. Hotel help desk must have arrangement of paid Darshan’s and dedicated corridor to join the queues inside the promises itself .
4. No restaurant attached ?
5. House keeping not up to the mark . Staff is not professional at all .

Comfortable stay inside the Temple complex
Pros:

Inside the compound of the temple. You can go to temple whenever you go.

Cons:

The entry to the hotel requires police checking since it’s inside the temple compound. You need to carry the hotel card and may have to call the hotel if the police restrict you to take luggage with you so that they can send escort. Manikarnika ghat is the closest.

Very nice stay to plan when temple rush is not too high.
Pros:

It is within temple corridor and well maintained.

Cons:

1. Room floor has got dust and it wasn’t cleaned.
2. Due to huge rush in temple going out and coming in is little difficult. However, police allowing when we quote guest house name.
