Breakfast and food was good and the staff very helpful. Definitely a good spot to step away from the hustle and bustle and recover from long days."

Top Varanasi Hotel Reviews

Avantika By The Ganges, IHCL Seleqtions

Avantika By The Ganges, IHCL Seleqtions

10/10 Excellent
"The F&B team was outstanding. We ate so much because they would bring out off menu dishes to try and they all were outstanding. The staff truly wanted us to enjoy the food. My kids love Indian food and the staff fed them happily. The best of Varanasi hospitality. The rooms are massive. Property is small but that’s to be expected when located on the ghats I suppose. The only tip is not using the gully in the back to go to Kashi Vishwanath - it was disgusting. Take the hotel boat if you don’t mind passing Manikarnika ghat on the way."
