I will always recommend the hotel to anyone who is interested in the ghats, boating, Ganga Aarti and the Temple.
Pros:

It’s excellent location.

Cons:

Approach as also getting out are time-consuming due to continuous flow of pilgrims.

Hotel dated and not comfortable but location is excellent
Pros:

Superb location. In the middle of the kashi action.

Cons:

Rooms are hot dated and mattress and beddings not good quality. You need to walk a long distance to get to hotel after the cab but hotel sends staff for luggage assistance.

disappointing. Stays here were better in the past
Pros:

Some items mentioned in menu was missing. At lunch, the Dal Makhani had a rotting taste. I was charged for this item, & was offered free vanilla ice cream . Unprofessional practice.

Cons:

food. Bathroom geyser not working properly

Price wise it is totally not worth
Pros:

Location is good

Cons:

Though it is near to Dashashwamedh ghat, the property is on a very very crowded & noisy road. It is like a refurbished lodge .. there is nothing grand about it . We were on forth floor,however lift operates from first to third floor only .. not suitable if you have old people with you. Restaurant is just okay.Your vehicle is parked in an underground cave like structure, which takes lot of maneuvring & half an hour..
