        For those who plan to be on the Ganges and have no plans to go around in the city proper”

        Location is at the banks of the great Ganges river, however the access to this place by vehicle is not possible. You have to walk for atleast 800-900m from the parking area. The road isn’t very clean, for old people it gets a bit challenging. You can catch a boat from the Assi Ghat/ Raj ghat and enter from the river side. The rooms are small but value for money. Not all rooms have river view. Although they have a window but it is essentially shut. Not very easy access to the staff. There is no lift at all and the rooms are from 1st floor(which is almost like walking 2floors up). There is a place called the dolphin restaurant next to the hotel, with choice of multiple cuisines. We got served decent food in the dolphin restaurant. Right next to the palace is the heritage history museum which is highly recommended. If you are looking for a budget place at the banks of the river I would highly recommend this. But very crowded since lies very close to the main Kashi Vishwanath temple and dashshwamedh Ghat. Overall a 4-5/10

        Avoid unless your priority is seeing the Ganga on waking up”

        Lovely location on the ghats with a few rooms with a view to boot too. But what a dampener this place turned out to be as far as basic cleanliness and hygiene was concerned. Blotches of dust and cobwebs viable on walls, AC making more noise than cooling, extremely unprofessional untrained staff, chipped cups for tea, extremely dirty bedsheets and the list goes on and on. When we booked there were no river-view rooms available. But the person at the reception was kind enough to l have the river view room for the first 2 nights. Very small rooms, with nothing going for it except the great view of the Ganges and the sunrise. We actually repented staying here. But the ghats are literally 30-35 steps down from this property. So do think twice of your priorities before booking here

        Perfect location ”

        The hotel is perfectly located if you wish to stay close to Baba Biswanath Temple and river Ganges.... my river facing room offered a wonderful view. Stone throwing distance from Daswamedh ghat where you can witness the evening Arati of river Ganges. The hotel doesn’t have an elevator and you need to climb a lot of stairs. Please don’t opt for this hotel if you’ve mobility issues or you’ve elderly people accompanying you. You need to walk a lot. Otherwise absolutely great for people who doesn’t have problem in walking / taking flight of stairs...

        Dear Mr. Sovan, Greetings from the holy city Varanasi!! Thanks for your valuable review. It'll take us a step ahead. We were very glad to see you again. We are trying our level best for you and other valuable guests. But I want to add some information to this message- "Varanasi is the city of 'Stairs'. Its' beauty of Varanasi. There are 88 Ghats and each Ghat has 42 stairs (more or less). So, if someone plans to visit Varanasi, he must make his mind up". On the other hand, we are planning to put a lift in our hotel. We hope it'll be done soon. Thanks and regards, Faizan Ahmad. Rashmi Guest House.

        Best location but worst service”

        The guest house is just beside the Dashaswamedh ghat and by location its awesome. Manmandir ghat stairs start just from the entrance of the hotel. The whole Ganga and its beauty can be seen from the hotel front. But the accommodation, facilities and services are the poorest. Rooms are too small to move. Wallpapers are exfoliating out. In our bathroom there was a chunk of soil above the bathroom door collected by termite. Everytime the door is closed soil are falling from the door top. Cleanliness not satisfactory. Every corner you can find dust and dirt. After complaining several times they assured us to shift to another room but that never happened. Whatever this favour wouldn't work as the other rooms are also alike ours. They have a restaurant in front of the hotel (Dolphin restaurant) where they will push you to visit once during check in. The view from the restaurant is nice and so their food prices. Its just enough to cut your throat off. We tried aloo paratha there for Rs 150 and it wasn't impressive at all. The guest house runs only for its location coz there is nothing other good things about them to mention about. Now the call is yours whether you want location or convenience
