We would cherish to stay here again when in Varanasi the next time.
Pros:

Excellent dishes and staff courtesy at the breakfast restaurant although the next day packed breakfast (because of very early morning check out by us) was only normal.

Cons:

A better approach to the property

Good Stay
Pros:

Sareen, Green expanse environment

Cons:

The Entrance Road is all dug up and Unimpressive.
Around 10 or even more personal security men just sitting in Goggles the whole time. When enquired, it was told that some VIP was staying in the hotel.

A bit overpriced and just passable stay. Wouldn’t recommend for families
Pros:

The breakfast and the restaurant was good. Our request for an extra bed and other odd requests were promptly fulfilled

Cons:

The bathroom was bad. There was a stink every morning from the wash basin, the shower was in a bad state. The beds were not soft and there were mosquitoes the first night. They seem to be charging more if booked from outside of India.
