(please note that my rating are given in the context of the price, location and alternative places I have seen/visited). Given its central location, the hotel can get accessed relatively easy. From the train station, you can get a pre-paid tuk tuk for 95rupee and it takes around 15-20min depending on traffic. By car, you can get very close to... More

A very well furnished hotel with interesting furniture and works of art. The drains smelled very bad in our room but as we were out a lot it wasn't too bad but they do need seeing to. The Air Conditioning was a disaster and as it was very hot not a pleasant experience to try to sleep. I got the... More

After 4 weeks travelling through India, we found this quite the most wonderful place to stay we had experienced. It is right by the Ganga, at Asi Ghat, with wonderful views from a communal terrace garden, utterly peaceful above the vibrant hubbub. It is stylish and clean, with excellent value vegetarian food. The proprietor and staff are wonderfully friendly and... More

The Ganges View is more than a delight. It has. It has been in the same family for three generations and the owner Shashank, has enormous sensitivity. An example: I saw him placing tiny flowers into the earring holes of a bronze female bust. The whole house is beautifully furnished and decorated and the ambience and food are beyond reproach....

This place is magical in a magical city. The rooms and common areas are so comfortable. The staff and owner are the perfect hosts for your stay in Varanasi. The location is perfect right on the bank of the mighty Ganges next to a temple. If there is anything you need to know about Varanasi, the staff is extremely knowledgeable.... More

Whenever I visit Varanassi, I usually stay closer to the burning ghat. This is a top rated hotel for the very popular Assi Gatt. Assi ghat is very popular with artists and especially rated musicians. It is also popular for those wishing to learn other arts such as fire dancing. This is well worth a bit of a spurge. [-]

My brother has been living in India for over the past 35 years and he is very friendly with the owners. The small guest house is located directly on the last ghat with views of the Ganges. The rooms are charming, decorated with antiques and beautiful drawings on the walls. It has air conditioning and showers. There is a beautiful... More
