This is a very friendly guest house with a superb view of the Ganges. The owner is a mine of information and very honest. The room with bathroom is spacious but very simple. The price is very resonable for a retired teacher as I am. Cricri from London

Sanjay and Dhanajay Tripathi run this guest house, and I have been lucky enough to stay twice. 4 well maintained rooms with hot water and wifi, with a view straight onto Raja Ghat and the Ganges (and mongoose family) from the central common area. Try flying kites from the rooftop if you can even get one of them into the... More

Really pacification place with very interesting and educated people. Don't miss it if you plan to stay in Varanasi. This place reflect the spirit of Varanasi. And we got great pleasure of speaking with hotel owner

This was a great find, our only disappointment was that we could only stay for 2 nights as they had previous bookings - but we enjoyed our stay hugely. Double room was 650 rupees (we had the front room on the left with Ganges views), the views were the best we've had in Varanasi, the room was a good size... More

Eden Halt sits in a perfect location centered amongst a few trees, surrounded by old temples, and... More

We stayed for 8 nights. The owner Sanjay and his brother are exceptionally nice and always smiling. They did not push us to do anything or buy anything but were very knowledgable and happy to offer advise (things to see, how much you should bargain for a boat ride etc) My girlfriend asked Sanjay if he knew anyone in his...

Very nice place on top of Raja Ghat with nice view on the Ganga where I've just spent two weeks. My room was big and clean with bathroom inside. It's a four rooms family guest house. The place is basic but clean and safe. Since I'm a documentary photographer and I travel with a lot of equipment I need a... More
