Divyamshu and Aishwary both went up and beyond to make sure that we are comfortable. Being our first time in Banaras, they picked us up from a location so that we don't get lost in the little lanes of Banaras. They gave us right suggestions and were always available for any small queries. They treated us like family. Rooms were clean and comfortable. location is amazing and just few minutes walk to the ghat and ganga aarti. Would definitely recommend this place and will myself stay here for future trips to Banaras.

For us Ashirvad Homestay was a welcoming and quiet refuge in an otherwise chaotic city. The location, a bit removed from the clutter near the river, is in an almost rural setting across the road from a park. Aman, the manager, was exceptionally helpful, changing money, arranging an airport transfer, setting up aboat trip and on Day One, negotiating a tuk-tuk for us. Trust me, if you do any of these activities, let Aman set them up for you.

This place is an Oasis in the noisy magic Varanasi. We relaxed and enjoyed nature, birds and silence. The staff was always happy to help with any question. It takes 30 minutes to get to the ghats by tuk tuk, 5 minutes walk to the ancient Buddhist stupa and museum. Thank you 🙏

I would highly recommend this property as the location is just perfect. It is very near to Kashi Vishwanath Temple, Ganges and even famous chaat places like Deena Chat and Kashi chat. And people who want to go for shopping will also have a lot of benefit as it's very near to most of the famous banarasi silk fabric/saree houses. Even commute vehicles are easily available to go anywhere. I must say that the stay was very comfortable and cleanliness was top notch. The hotel staff was very polite and cooperative. The host was in-fact very helpful in providing us so many recommendations of best places to visit, best eateries, shopping centers or any suggestions related to Varanasi, as me and my family were visiting here for the first time. I would say this hotel really offers everything you need in your stay at such nominal prices. Thank you CocoIn and Chaitanya for making our trip to Varanasi so memorable, we would love to come back and stay here again.
