Ramada Plaza by Wyndham JHV Varanasi

Ramada Plaza by Wyndham JHV Varanasi

Varanasi|2.28km from Sri Ranganathar Temple
(Good point) Lobby is clean and nice Good staff, good ***ners and good service I checked in at 15:00, but I was able to check in normally even if I went to 12:00. the restaurant is beautiful The bed is soft and comfortable Good laundry service The pool is pretty clean. Not at a level where you can't swim. Is there a breakfast buffet menu every day? change. I stayed 2 nights but it was nice to have a change. (bad place) I lost my friend's earphones in the room, but I couldn't find them. 2 hours after check out... old hair dryer Heavy construction noise during the day Occasional power outages (recovers in about 1 minute, but often...) Hotel facilities (rooftop, lounge, etc.) are lacking in some places It feels old and deserted. The view from the window is not good (surrounding ruins, etc.) The breakfast bread is bad (croissants, donuts, etc.) and should be improved.
Hotel Madin
4.1/540 Reviews

Hotel Madin

Varanasi|2.33km from Sri Ranganathar Temple
The hotel is safer in the army area. The front desk was a bit cold, probably too busy. Breakfast is OK, mostly in India, and less in Western style. The room is small, the twin bed is to take apart the big bed that has been put together, resulting in a bed that is very awkward and sleeps at the door. The hotel is a bit far from the altar. Varanasi is the world of tutu cars and rickshaws. There are a lot of tutu cars at the door, and it is convenient to go anywhere. Tutu driver Reis is very good, my friend and I have been packing his car. The cost is about 1000-1500 rupees a day, depending on how far you go, you can bargain. Reis also has half a tour guide, so the price is more expensive than pure tutu, English simple communication is basically OK. It's a lot of time to have a local guide safe.

DoubleTree by Hilton Varanasi

DoubleTree by Hilton Varanasi

Varanasi|2.75km from Sri Ranganathar Temple
We chose this hotel because since there is not much accommodation on offer in Varanasi, compared to the rest of the hotels in the same category it was the one with the best price. I have to say that it was the best choice we could have made. The hotel is new as it has only been in operation for a short time, and although it still has some areas that are being renovated, things are clearly in place. The treatment with us was unbeatable from the reception to the restaurant staff. Even though we arrived at 11:30 a.m. they let us check in without a problem and upgraded us to a pool view room without any additional charge. The rooms are spacious, new, very comfortable and with a very good design. The pool area is very nice for swimming and sunbathing. Special mention to the restaurant with a breakfast with ***y Western options and one of the best I have had in India (I could say that the French toast is the best I have ever had) and dinner within our à la carte half board. As for the location, it is obviously not in the city center but most of these hotels are not, which allows you to get away from the hustle and bustle to be able to rest and get closer to it in 20 minutes by car. . The only drawback I could say is that the first day the shower pressure was not very good, although the next day it was correct and the gym could do with a few more things. But I would definitely stay at this hotel again.

Must-Experience Uniqueness of Varanasi

Varanasi, also known as Banaras or Kashi, is a city that encapsulates the essence of spirituality, culture, and tradition. As one of the oldest inhabited cities in the world, it offers a unique experience that is sure to leave a lasting impression on any visitor.

One of the must-experience aspects of Varanasi is the mesmerizing Ganga Aarti ceremony held every evening at the Dashashwamedh Ghat. This spiritual ritual involves the offering of prayers to the sacred River Ganges, accompanied by the enchanting sound of bells, chants, and the flickering flames of the lamps. It is a truly awe-inspiring sight that showcases the deep-rooted religious beliefs of the city.

Another unique experience in Varanasi is taking a boat ride along the Ganges during sunrise or sunset. As you glide through the calm waters, you can witness the city come alive with the vibrant colors of the morning or evening sky. The ghats (steps leading to the river) dotted along the riverbank offer a glimpse into the daily lives of the locals, as they perform their rituals and ceremonies.
