This has been the best place I have stayed at in India so far. It's very clean, the area is super quiet and the staff is so kind. They helped me to get some medical help when I needed and catered to my needs to get better quickly. I felt like I was staying with family.

From

I had a wonderful experience staying at Hotel Shri Shiva Homestay during my visit to Varanasi. The rooms were neat, clean, and well-maintained, with all the basic amenities provided. The location is perfect — peaceful yet close to all major attractions like the Ghat and Kashi Vishwanath Temple. What truly made my stay memorable was the warm hospitality of the host and staff. They were always ready to help, whether it was arranging transport, guiding me for local sightseeing, or even suggesting good places to eat. It felt like a home away from home. I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Varanasi — solo travelers, families, or couples. Great value for money and a very positive experience overall!
