Guest Reviews
- Thelakkath RadhaKrishnan (1/5): - The staff is very polite and good. Even though they are understaffed did their work politely The owner is taking the guests for a ride. His hotel is under renovation and all uneven are dangerous approach especially for the elders. Poor lighting aroind. The owner should give 50 percent discount compared to the facilities offered just in his area. Absolutely unhappy that full amount was taken when facilities are not ok. The initial room had issues for light, no point for the kettle etc. Forced to take an update to their supposed to be new rooms but the way to the same is pathetic
- Mukesh (1/5): Bad experience - Very poor experiance No lift in hotel. Very old building. Coldrink price 180 of one cock and water price 125 and tea price 167/ per cup.
- Avinash (7/5): -
- Prabhat (7/5): wifi was not available. - location was ok. Room was adjacent to restaurant, lot of noise and loud music disturb us. Both the room was not nearby. way to room was not plain ups and down were there.
- Devesh (1/5): - Nothing No clarity about details or booking
- Alok Tripathi (9/5): -
- Radhakrishna (1/5): - My experience at Hotel Varuna was disappointing. The property is quite old and not well maintained. The staff were arrogant and uncooperative, which made the stay unpleasant. Cleanliness was also not up to the mark. Overall, not worth the price — I wouldn’t recommend this hotel. Food is very costly
- JOHNKUTTY (6/5): - 24x7 Restaurant facilities good. Food neat and tasty (1) Room facilities OK. But support from waiters was very poor. (2) Bathroom facilities such as bucket, mug etc lacked in some rooms. (3) In some rooms the water for bath was only from shower.

- Naman (6/5): The hotel is only t - The room was modern, property is very large and parking is big and safety is maintained. 1. Room was only appearing good, but the cleanliness was not good in bathroom. Rooms are exceptional but,are not so maintained. 2. Room service and staffs are too lazy and try to ignore their guests. 3. Some rooms lack hanger, some lacks locker.

- Abhay (3/5): Poor - Nothings No value of money.
- Raj (1/5): Bad - Bad Behavior Staff shifting Continue my Rooms
- Jayani (10/5): Exceptional -
- Saurabh (1/5): worst stay of my life at any hotel - nothing as such to like except for the location rooms were dirty, no toileteries, construction was going on just next to the room, no ventilation, suffocating, intense smell of varnish in the room, rude staff, no water bottles provided, no electric kettle or anything as such, no lift in the hotel every time you have to climb 2-3 floors by stairs, no wardrobe no closet
- Utkarsh (3/5): Total waste of money - Nothing..... irresponsible staff...under construction building... Tea Kettle...
- Raju (1/5): Bad - Really a very stupid hotel and not at all worth for the amount paid. 2 hours took for dinner after continues 2-3 follow up.. Even though the breakfast was included, i need to fight with staff to prove that the breakfast by showing the booking confirmation. Really a horrible hotel
- Rashed (6/5): Good choice, far away from the Ganges - The room was spacious, we had 2 singles beds and 1 king bed. The bathroom was OK. The hotel is located next to a wedding hall which was so disturbing (music, firework, etc). The restaurant serves very delicious food. The hotel is relatively far away from the Ganges River, around 20 minutes by tuktuk but close to a shopping district
- sunil (2/5): Very bad hotel. - Really the worst hotel ever I have seen. I have also given the written complain.
- WY (8/5): Very nice staff - The lobby staff are very nice and friendly. My train from Varanasi to Kolkata was delayed to midnight, but I have no play to stay as the railway station was not very safe in night. The staff let me to wait at the lobby until 11pm, and arrange a rickshaw for me to railway station. I am very appreciate the nice attitude of the staff. I will stay again if I visit Varanasi!
- Luis (6/5): Okay hotel in Varanasi - Normal low budget hotel in Varanasi, great thing about the hotel is the tours arranged by the hotel, driver "John" good kid
- kuruparan (2/5): Bad stay ever - I stayed at this hotel for 4 days, very noicey and have bugs.
- Verified traveler (2/5): I will not stay there again. - Well, unfriendly receptionist who did not seem to understand the difference between a passport and a driver’s license. Guest rooms are next to the reception/lobby area, too noisy. Leaky bathroom fixtures, stained wall, muggy room, while the room itself was relatively clean its nowhere to be 3star standard. I really do not know how hotels in India given ‘star status’, perhaps themselves! If you are visiting for a short business trip may be you can tolerate, but if you want your money’s worth go to a real start hotel or go to the ghats.
- Evgeny (8/5): Соотношение цены и качества - Расположение хорошее. На моторикше до местного вокзала минут 10.Близко к гатам Ганги. Рядом есть магазины, маркет и даже McDonald's (для тех, кто устал от местной острой пищи).Работники приветливые и вежливые. Комнаты чистые. Имеется горячая вода. Уютный ресторанчик на нижнем этаже. Но меню небогатое.
- Michael (6/5): Decent hotel but manager's behaviour disturbing - The hotel was all right - reasonably clean and comfortable. The location was decent - close to the river, the ghats etc but far enough removed not to be in the middle of the chaos. What disturbed me, however, was to inadvertently witness an incident while passing through reception where the manager was physically and verbally abusive to one of his staff members. It stopped when they became aware that I had come downstairs, but what I saw was deeply concerning. Although the hotel was decent and good value, this would definitely deter me from returning to the hotel.
- PRIYANKA (8/5): Good Experience - Me and my family have enjoyed the stay at the hotel. Hotel Ambience was awesome but i would say they should improve on service.
- Ananya (6/5): Hotel Varuna - Cleanliness of hotel is not upto standards. Insects such as cockroaches, crickets, etc were found inside rooms, toilets, etc. Despite requesting hotel staff to clean the room, there was no room cleaning during two days of our stay at the hotel. Food service took around 40 minutes. Leave much improvement to be expected
- Verified traveler (10/5): Awesome - The room and reception person were really nice! Only the thing is location is a little bit far from the Ganges river..
- J (8/5): いいホテルです - 設備も整っており、お湯も使え、広い部屋で、コスパ満足です。 ただ、ホテルで紹介されたリキシャがとても高い。そして、頼んでいないボートに乗せられた。これがかなり高額で、なんとか半額くらいまで交渉値引きしたが、翌日個人的にチャーターしたボートの１２倍の値段でした。最初は、４５倍だったと考えると恐ろしい。これは、ホテルも絡んでいないとは言い切れないが、この点は自己責任でもあるので、評価には反映していない。このホテルを利用される場合は、ホテル紹介リキシャは利用しない方が良いです。
- Sk (2/5): Poor service - The manager was rude from the start. The repair works were ongoing which resulted in dust everywhere and noise outside room till late but hotel made no effort to improve guest comfort. Despite room being dusty due to repair work outside noone bothered cleaning until requested. There was no hot water for shower. Even toilet paper needed to asked for. Overall hotel is not value for money.
- Verified traveler (6/5): 很安全的飯店 - 離火車站很近、外頭還有警衛!整體素質很好!但外觀跟房間就有差!但如果只是住宿、有熱水洗澡，是個不錯的選擇!離恆河有點遠就是了(2km)
- bruce (4/5): Crummy hotel - Crummy hotel with friendly staff. Incredibly noisy (in fairness, the entire town is very noisy due to pre-election construction), cold showers, limited kitchen.
- Ronnie (6/5): Okej hotell om man står ut med oljud. - Hotellrum, säng odyl helt okay. Problemet är öppningarna i rummet ut mot alla korridorer och där sprang många skolungdomar så svårt sova innan jag fann lronproppar som dämpade lite. Bra service, lite lång väntetid att få mat men funkade. Inget tjat om rundturer så jag köpte en. :) Takterassen var stängd för renovering. Inget värdeskåp tyvärr. Wifi fungerade på Indisk maner ibland.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Excelente atención - Nos brindaron una asistencia en todo para poder disfrutar al máximo de Varanasi. Su personal es muy amable y servicial.
- Muyideen (8/5): Pleasant, comfortable experience - I recommend Hotel Varuna to all those who wish to have a comfortable stay in Varanasi. Food they provide is delicious. Staff is polite. Manager is pleasant. The only drawback is that the location of the hotel is inconvenient for all those who wish to frequent the ghats, Sarnath, etc.
- vikrant yadav (8/5): average stay - Room was full of rainy flies when i entered but i booked it at very last moment and checked in after 15 mins after booking. However It was cleaned after asking. Service was too good. Refrigerator was not clean. Overall good hotel in this budget.
