Brijnama Palace, a Heritage Hotel built in the 18th century. It’s really beautiful, great service & hygienic. On the Dasashwamedh Ghat, it’s about 400 metres from Kashivishwanath… The best of Indian Culture. 🇮🇳 pic.twitter.com/JcDHztK6n2

Pearl Courtyard – Reasonably priced, decent, clean and very centrally located. Max 10 minutes walk to Dasashwamedh Ghat. We were there last week and it was really comfortable.

We hope you all are taking notes because these places are all quite good and nearby major attractions in Varanasi.
I had stayed at hotel diamond around 5 months back. Pretty decent & around 4..5 k and 1-1.5 kms from dashashwamedh ghat and Viswanath temple. Tuk-tuks n rickshaws were easily available anytime of the day @ 100-150 rs. (I had gone alone and was able to conveniently get rickshaw @…

Taj would be the best. Book the boat and Aarti and darshan via the hotel. That would be the best and most convenient. Great food as well at the Taj. Half an hour from the airport and most other hotels in that area only.

There is a house stay called Granny’s Inn. Was featured on national geographic as well.
Stayed there personally. Very good – especially for parents. Check it out.— chirayu desai (@chirayusdesai) February 18, 2024
People even gave some good advice and correct locations to avoid any confusion and safety purposes.
Choose “Southern Grand Kashi”. Its inside the Vishvanath temple campus. Not many room so, book early as possible.
Note: Google location is incorrect, this is the correct location:https://t.co/SbtP3Dd0pv

Hotel Aadhesh Palace. Visited recently last weekend only. Only 200 metres away from temple. Good hotel, amazing staff. Elderly can easily attend early morning aarti at temple because of the proximity.

call the hotel before booking online
Got scammed by agoda in same way. Hotel was listed on site but location pr he nji tha 😅— Ansh Aggarwal (@Ansh___Aggarwal) February 18, 2024
We stayed in Southern Kashi Grand, a hotel INSIDE the temple premises – doesn’t get closer than that! Booked through the temple website. DM me if you want more tips, I was there just last week

It would be a good decision to take an hotel near Assi Ghat – Your parents would easily enjoy Ganga snan, Ganga Arti & good local food as well & they can easily reach Kashi Vishwanath temple from this place.

After all the recommendations, the X user zeroed it down to Pearl Courtyard.
Well, thanks to him, we got some really amazing and tested places for recommendation. So, if you, your parents, or your family are travelling to Varanasi soon, then do keep these recommendations in mind!
Don’t you just love the power of social media?!
