I’m so happy I’ve chosen this guesthouse for my travel. The first advantage is location of course. This part of city can go by walk or by bike only so it was so important to stay in convenient area. Room wan cleaned good and everything was neat. Owner and his sons were so kind and helpful. They do all requests so good. One son of owner even helped me to go one very ancient temple very early because I couldn’t get there alone. Very good restaurant Dolphin just on the side of hotel. My first travel to Varanasi was amazing and mostly of this hotel. Probably next time I’ll stay here also. I recommend to chose this hotel

This has been the best place I have stayed at in India so far. It's very clean, the area is super quiet and the staff is so kind. They helped me to get some medical help when I needed and catered to my needs to get better quickly. I felt like I was staying with family.

Our stay at Shree Nanda was simply exceptional! The lady owner took great care of us, she was extremely attentive to all our requests and doubts. Her staff also was very quick and reliable. They even changed our room simply because a more spacious one was vacant without charging us anything extra. Also, the food was really tasty. I must say this was my best experience on Booking!

Kashi

From

India

I had a wonderful experience staying at Hotel Shri Shiva Homestay during my visit to Varanasi. The rooms were neat, clean, and well-maintained, with all the basic amenities provided. The location is perfect — peaceful yet close to all major attractions like the Ghat and Kashi Vishwanath Temple. What truly made my stay memorable was the warm hospitality of the host and staff. They were always ready to help, whether it was arranging transport, guiding me for local sightseeing, or even suggesting good places to eat. It felt like a home away from home. I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Varanasi — solo travelers, families, or couples. Great value for money and a very positive experience overall!
