They allotted shoddy room and when requested for change demanded RS 500 per night more which I had to pay. Poor experience from hotel. Com. Booking .com ensures you get what you pay for.

A mid range hotel with too many issues
Posted 4 May 2018My check in was seamless and the room was spacious, clean and modern with central air conditioning. The location is not the best. It's a good 15 minute walk from Varanasi Junction station and it's too far to walk to the ghats. The hotel is on a busy road so noise can be an issue for some people (my room was right at the back away from the street and there's still traffic noise). On the plus side, there modern shops and shopping centres nearby. Staff tried to help but were not really that helpful. There are minor issues with the room itself such as wifi connection issues, issues with erratic water for shower (including hot water which I didn't get until my final day of stay) and two of the bathroom lights were not out. Also, air conditioning is central so there's only two settings - on and off. For me, it get too cold to leave it on all the time so I had to temporarily turn it off to warm up the room. Considering the number of similar priced hotels in Varanasi, I really can't recommend this as the first choice, unless the above mentioned issues have been addressed. It has potentials but it just needs a bit of attention.

ok stay
Posted 14 Apr 2017 on Hotels4 friends and I stayed at this location for 2 nights, the night we arrived the gentleman on front desk ( older male may have been the owner of the hotel) didn't;t even greet or acknowledged us , we came with a tour guide and was only addressed through him , the room was quite noisy , location is not central , I wouldn't recommend this hotel for more then two nights .... while it's short distance from all the activities ....I would recommend to check the room before booking and do not take front rooms as noise level is fairly high .. ?Wifi wasn't good either

Avoid if possible

Pros: Can't think of anything
Cons: Update their online advertising
Location: Not much nearby. I took a rickshaw or tuktuk
Basically a nightmare. Arriving from the airport, I was expecting the room I had booked and documentation for but it was occupied until the next day. So I accepted a standard room which was on the third floor. There is no lift. The room had no mini bar/fridge, no tea, coffee etc. no safe, and no hot water. The shower head was broken, the phone didn't work and I was told breakfast wasn't included. Plus the wifi kept going in and out because of the power outages. The next day I changed rooms to the one I had booked - and got a working phone and tea and coffee facilities. That's all. It also says free airport transportation but that was out of the question.
