    loved the stay. Everyone was so helpful, and helped me with all Darshan related info. the hotel also has a very lowkey kind of vibe and a very positive energy. would definitely recommend. The breakfast was also very tasty, and looked like it was made with a lot of love..

    Terrible Stay

    raghunandan s.solo

    there isn't any parking provided by them, the day I was to reach there, I was called to inform that I will have to park my vehicle elsewhere. they did not help me in any way. I finally had to go to another hotel .they were uncommunative, and did not reimburse either. honest advice to anyone considering this place, please do not go if you are traveling in your personal vehicle.

    Absolutely fantastic stay! From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and ensure we had everything we needed. Their hospitality was truly exceptional. The hotel's location is perfect – convenient for exploring the area and easy to get around. Our room was spotless, and the entire hotel maintained a high standard of cleanliness throughout our stay. Service was prompt and efficient, whether it was for room service or any other request. Overall, a wonderful experience. Highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable, clean, and friendly place to stay with great service! We'll definitely be back!

    We went for the first time to Varanasi. The location is perfect and the iconic Godoliya chowk is the landmark for this property. Property is superbly maintained and very neat & clean. Standards are maintained highly in ambience.

    Great small boutique hotel, close to Kashi Vishwanath and the ghats. Small rooms but adequate if you are likely to spend most of your time outside. Like most hotels in this older town, access is by foot or 2 wheelers, but you get access to tricycles and autos in a short 5 min walk at Godholia chouraha. The hosts were nice and helpful. Limited breakfast options of parathas and poha but was made well and tasty. Great small boutique hotel, close to Kashi Vishwanath and the ghats.

    Average Stay

    nandini s.couple

    The property was average with respect to the prices of stay....Room was fine but there was no mirror in the room...Light got cut for almost two hrs so the AC couldn’t work properly...The worst part is you cant opt for without breakfast option... First day we reached after 10, the breakfast was over...last day we checked out early morning again couldn’t take breakfast... we only took it one day out of three... i can understand that there are timings and i respect that but the hotel should allow to not have breakfast option and deduct the tariff accordingly......there are many better options to stay nearby......

    Dear Guest Thank you for your feedback. Just to clarify for future guests: this booking was from 15th to 17th June — a two-night stay. Breakfast is provided only on the mornings following your check-in, not on the morning of arrival. So, 15th morning (before check-in) was never part of the plan, and on 17th you checked out at 4 AM — before breakfast service begins. Breakfast was served as scheduled on 16th, which was the only eligible morning. We have inverter backup in place, but extended power cuts caused by external issues can sometimes impact service despite our best efforts. Regarding the mirror — we’ve taken note and will work on it. As for our pricing, we follow a bundled plan that includes breakfast; currently, we don’t offer a room-only option. We appreciate you staying with us and wish you all the best in your travels. Regards

    Very nice and cozy stay, nearby all the tourist spots at a walking distance only. Breakfast was also very good. Very polite staff and accommodated all our requests with a smile on their face! Fittings in rooms have become a bit old and there were lizards in bathroom, plus a mirror in the room could have been helpful. All these things didn’t justify the high price, but still would rate it a good stay because of location and kind staff.
