Ashirvad Homestay must rank among the very best places to stay in Varanasi. Elegant, spotlessly clean rooms, wonderful breakfasts, centrally located but in a tranquil cul-de-sac, we could not have been more comfotable. The owners are very attentive to their guests' needs and even presented us with a beautiful hand-painted picture of Varanasi upon departure. This was our favourite accommodation in india.

Mr. Kapoor is the kindest host, a wonderful person who welcomed us into his house as dear guests, introduced us to his family, helped us in every way and created a wonderful, caring and delicate support for us.. His house is cozy, tastefully furnished and it's easy to relax in it and enjoy your stay.. The bed is big and comfortable and there is always hot water.. The room we stayed in was spacious and clean with plenty of space for our luggage.. The location is very convenient and there is a shop and restaurants nearby as well as the impressive Hanuman’s temple . Because of this person we consulted with and enjoyed talking to, as well as because of his calm, a nice home that we felt like our own - we will return right there again and connect the interesting and strong Varanasi with more humanity, warmth and coziness! We had a great time and recommend this home heartily and sincerely! Thank you :)

I recently stayed at Banaras rest house in varanasi, and overall, it was a decent budget stay with pros and cons The location is excellent, close to Dashashwamedh ghat and kashi Vishwanath temple, which makes it very convenient for exploring the spiritual side of Varanasi on foot . The staff was very friendly, helpful, and gave good local tips , which I really appreciated . However , the room is very comfort, and the cleanliness and facilities could be improved . The bathroom is very clean. Overall it's fantastic
