The only place to stay if you really want to experience the natural Varanasi. Located overlooking the Ganges River close to all the action including the burning ghats. Restaurant was superb with magnificent food and unbelievable view. I utilised the services of Pappu, a local guide, who showed me parts of the old town that you could never see on... more

I traveled in India 6 times, so I am very familiar with rooms , prices and categories... I called this Hotel to book , they told me that there is only one... more

I am really confused as to why anyone would think this is a good hotel. After reading all of the positive reviews on tripadvisor I booked a three night stay for my friend and I at Rashmi Guest House. Varanasi was the last stop on our Indian excursion and I must say... the worst part of the trip. The city... more

After the most stressful taxi ride from the train station (where we were taken to another hotel of a similar name) we arrived at the Rashmi Guest house for our 3 nights stay. You cant get a rickshaw or car to the entrance of the hotel as the streets are so narrow so you'll have either carry your bags the... more

Small,clean rooms and tiled bathrooms with hot water. AC not always working and opening windows was not an option as the noise and smell made this impossible. Roof top views were OK but food was mediocre at best. WiFi only at the computer area- not throughout the hotel as advertised. The staff was mostly helpful and friendly but beware of... more

We stayed for two nights: in a small room with one bed (due to a booking error) and another room with two twins (which was much better). For both rooms: No view of the river, but we didn't come to hang out in the room! The rooms and bathrooms were clean, and the staff are great and helpful. The place... more

I stayed three night in mid-Oct. The airport pick-up I had requested and paid for did not arrive so I was left to fend for myself. Taxi car from the airport to the edge of the Old City, then a cycle-rickshaw, then a walk. It's next to impossible to navigate though the old city to find this place so I... more

Great location but simple and small room with a view on the Ganges. The room is clean and is OK for one night. Bad shower. Very good and helpful manager and excellent restaurant on the roof. We paid USD 98 for one night in a room with view on the Ganges with pick up at the airport and drop off... more

Walk the ghats, see the sunrise, experience the evening fire ceremony, take a boat, explore old Varanasi - the location of the Rashmi Guest House can't be beat for location. You can do all of this just by stumbling out the front door and down a few steps. And the Guest House staff is very friendly. The pickup/drop off from... more
