The property is non-smoking throughout, and pets are not allowed. Breakfast is not included in the room rate, so plan to eat out or order separately.

“The location is excellent for exploring Varanasi, and the staff are very helpful and courteous. Some rooms lack proper ventilation, and breakfast isn't included. The staff could share more local tips and enhance the in-room amenities. Still, with better housekeeping and staff care, this place has real potential. Anshu's exceptional hospitality truly made the stay memorable.”
