The location of this hotel is very attractive. You can roam around all the ghats just by getting down 20 mitres. Great ambiance. Very supportive owners especially Divyanshu and Aishwarya. They guide for any trip you wish to make. Even their suggestions for visiting Varanasi places are great and they have a deep sense of hospitability. Will visit again. Thanks a lot.

Our group of +20 foreign Buddhist pilgrims really enjoyed staying at the Mohit Paying Guest House. Mr. Mohit Gupta and his family and staff were very friendly and helpful towards us. We had a very long journey in India and Nepal, and this was our last stop before going home. We stayed two nights and it exceeded our expectations! The ambience and energy of Mohit's place is very relaxing, enjoyable and spacious. And it is a very family-friendly guest house, as we have children who accompanied us on our journey, and we only want to stay at family-friendly locations. Our group also enjoyed the 2nd and 3rd floor balconies that we could hang out and enjoy the morning or evening view. The rooms were very relaxing, clean and good to sleep in. The location is also very convenient because it's a 7 minute walk to the Sarnath Buddhist Temple and a 19 minute walk to the Dhamekh Stupa. Mohit's customer service is great and I would love to go back to his place! Thank you Mohit for your hospitality and we hope to stay at your place again in the future!

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.
