Situated in Varanasi, 1.2 km from Sarnath, Mohit Paying Guest House features accommodation with a shared lounge, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant. The property is set 10 km from Manikarnika Ghat, 11 km from Dasaswamedh Ghat and 11 km from Kashi Vishwanath Temple. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi throughout the property.

Rooms have a safety deposit box, while certain rooms are fitted with a balcony and others also boast city views. The rooms at the hostel are fitted with a seating area. I'm Australian and visited during the low season and had the most incredible stay — it honestly felt like this family had a magic wand hidden somewhere. Every little problem I brought with me, they solved with such kindness and ease. From helping me get tailored clothes made, to fixing the screen on my phone, to preparing the most delicious meals, to even arranging a local traveler to accompany me to the ghats — they thought of everything. Mohit’s wife cooks the most amazing food, with a huge variety of delicious home-style Indian dishes. I probably ate 70% of my meals here, and every bite was a treat! As a solo woman traveler, I felt completely safe and cared for. When I ran into trouble with a bad Uber driver, they stepped in right away and sorted it out without hesitation. Whatever was on my to-do list, they somehow made it happen. Their home is full of warmth, laughter, and the sweetest little girls you’ll instantly fall in love with. Mohit’s mother also carries such wisdom and clarity in her words that, even when she spoke in Hindi, I found myself understanding. They’re wonderfully creative too — they hand painted uplifting murals to brighten the walls, from a cute panda to a serene Buddha, and they’ve even made cozy seats out of recycled tyre wheels. In the evenings, the open terrace is the perfect place to sit, while doves that have been nesting there for over five years coo gently in the background. The family also runs a small shop, so snacks and drinks are always within easy reach. Compared to the bustle of the city, this place is peaceful and quiet, yet still just a short walk from the Buddhist temples in Sarnath. The rooms are comfortable, with options to suit everyone — from dorms to single rooms and larger family spaces. Truly, this is the BEST place I have ever stayed. If you’re looking for safety, comfort, care, and unforgettable hospitality, look no further — you’ll find it here.

The hostel also has AC, which made the stay very comfortable. Its location is excellent, with the Vishwanath Temple nearby. Overall, it was a wonderful stay at an affordable price.
