Although we would recommend staying here for the location and cleanliness, we did have a few hiccups. A fan room is 700 rp or air con is 1350rp. In May, it gets up to 46 so you need AC but it only works about five hours in the day. It also had really poor wifi (contrary to the sign on... More

We arrived early morning from Varanasi station by autorickshaw, the hotel is well located, staff is very helpfull, room are average, toilets are clean but the hotel is clean enough in chaos of Varanasi.If you want to have Ganges view its not an option, you can reached the nearest Assi Ghat in 5 minutes walking.

We stayed in Varanasi only for 1 1/2 nights because our train to NJP was leaving at 5:45am. We booked a room with AC which was definitely necessary at 44 gradC. Sometimes there was an electricity cut but only for a couple of minutes and the rest of the electronic equipment was sourced by a generator. The staff was very... More

I can't say enough good things about the hotel manager, Santosh. We stayed at Hotel Ganesha for nearly 2 weeks due to my partner injuring his back when we arrived. Santosh arranged in-room doctors, he went and filled many prescriptions for us (on several occasions), arranged a car to take us to the hospital, and went well beyond expectations to... More

Found this hotel on Tripadvisor and it fulfilled the expectations. Clean rooms, free wifi and fellow travellers to share stories and excursion costs. All this for 750 INR / night. I call that good value for money. There was no restaurant in-house, but nearby Open Hand cafe is a recommended place for omelette breakfast and good coffee as well as... More

Clean with good bathroom and air conditioning, this budget hotel was a great find, very near Asi Ghat and Hotel Haifa. Nice and helpful staff. Acessable by car. Can reserve on Agoda.com. We had window overlooking the alley, but still quiet at night.

Hotel Ganesha's strengths lie in the kindness/flexibility of the staff, it's location close to the Assi Ghat (but quiet at night), and it's new, clean, and reasonable rooms. The clean room, towels, and so on were great. Most importantly, the owner is fantastic individual, and the staff follow his lead. He arranged for a group of us (tourists) to go... More

Positive - ok location 10 mins walk from assi ghat. Very helpful manager, good wifi. Negative - the most uncomfortable bed we have slept on in India, was like sleeping on a slab of concrete. Water took all day to drain from bathroom floor, so made using bathroom very messy. This place is very cheap, so we didn't expect luxury,... More
