8/10 Very good

The hotel is in perfect location for the ghats and major attractions in Varanasi. Loads of shops and good restaurants within walking distance. Facilities are clean and well maintained, room clean and comfortable and a fair size. Staff pleasant and provides and attentive service. Airport transfers are competitively priced. The only draw back for us was breakfast which did not provide a lot of choice for western palates.

subbarao, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great option in Varanasi

Very comfy room and terrific location in Varanasi. Just close enough—5 minutes walk—to the ghats to be totally convenient, but just enough outside the main part of the old city to feel like a bit of a haven. Room in good shape, solid restaurant. Only complaint is that the staff is a bit too hover-y and solicitous in the restaurant, but that’s a small thing.

Very clean hotel, great service
Sowmya, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel is lovely and even though on main road it is quiet inside with a really good quality of rooms. Each room is air conditioned and has really good facilities. The team are brilliant helping with questions about where to go shopping negotiating Rikshaw prices. The food is hot and whilst you have to remember at breakfast food comes first and then your hot drink there is nothing to complain about and the prices are reasonable. A really lovely hotel to stay in.

Sreevalli, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is very good, everything is very clean, and with a very good location, you can rest very well after your day's activities and the chaos of the city you arrive tired, so what you will need is a good bath and a good bed and this hotel has the conditions, I recommend it 100% its staff is friendly, Lalit one of the councilors or who is in charge of cleaning is very friendly and helps you in everything in his hands so that you feel comfortable with your room, the food is very good and of quality, it also has a unique restaurant and it is vegetarian, it is a small but cozy hotel.

Excellent hotel close/ walkable to all major attractions Kashi Vishwanth temple, ghats. Excellent service, friendly staff. Had an excellent stay.

6/10 Good

Good to see ghats and go for Ganges boat ride.

Close to ghats in a busy area. The bathroom had mold, but the shower and bed were OK. Not noisy. Got tired of eating at the buffet, although we liked the food for the most part and the service was good.

Bhavini, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Enjoyed my stay at the Grand Dolphin. The service was warm and attentive, the hotel clean and the food quite good. As a foreign traveller, I found the area a little tricky to navigate but there were always rickshaws nearby to help me get around.

a very affordable oasis in varanasi

this hotel must have been renovated not so long ago. it was out-of-india quality of cleanliness with one the friendliest and the most helpful staffs we’ve met during our trip in india. it was the first time in our trip that we enjoyed clean water shower that reverted our hair back to normal conditions after the shower. we had an amazing stay here.

Either newly built or renovated. The place was clean and nicely appointed. Close enough to the ghats so that you can walk to it in 15 min.
Albert, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect location for Banaras getaway

We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The rooms were super nice with comfy beds and good ameneties. The staff was very friendly and attentive to the needs of our family. This at an excellent location not too far from the popular ghats. The breakfast and lunch buffets at the restaurant were excellent in terms of variety and quality. Garima and the rest of front desk staff were very helpful in sorting out our reservation issues with hotels.com and planning our visits around the city
Mohan, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

It’s nice hotel with good customer service, the only negative is noise from the road. It has good Restaurent in it and close to Gaht to travel to Ganges. With my limited time I couldn’t plan ahead but they have services which is an added adavantage for this hotel.
