About your host – Satyam Seth Hi, I’m Satyam! I was born and brought up in Varanasi and live here with my family, so this city is truly home to me. I love meeting new people, making friends, and sharing the hidden gems of Varanasi that most travelers never get to see. With my energy and passion for travel, I make sure guests feel at ease, like they’re staying with family rather than in a hotel. Sometimes I even join trips and tours with my guests so that their experience is more fun and memorable. At Pushkar Stay, you won’t just find a place to sleep – you’ll find a home away from home.

At Pushkar Stay – Backpackers Varanasi , we believe travel is not just about a bed to sleep in, but about creating a community and a home away from home. Our property in Varanasi offers both private rooms and cozy dorms, designed with an aesthetic touch and surrounded by lush greenery that brings peace in the middle of the city. Guests often tell us what makes their stay special here is the friendly vibe – a space where travelers connect easily, whether it’s over a book from our collection, a tune on the guitar, or a conversation on the rooftop under the open sky. Many of our guests end up extending their stay because of the warmth and comfort they find here, which naturally makes new guests feel welcomed too. With a relaxing rooftop hangout, plenty of chill corners, and a welcoming team always ready to help, we make sure every guest feels part of something more than just accommodation – a true backpacker’s family.

Our neighborhood is peaceful and quiet, giving you a break from the usual hustle and chaos of Varanasi, while still being right in the heart of the city. We’re located just about 1 km from the city center, so getting around is very easy. Famous attractions like Kaal Bhairav Mandir, Kashi Vishwanath Temple, and Dashashwamedh Ghat are all within a 10–15 minute walk, and most of the city’s highlights are just 2–4 km away. It’s the perfect balance – close to everything, yet calm and relaxing when you return
