As intrepid explorers, venturing into the heartland of India we could have not expected or wanted a more friendly and helpful reception than the one we received from the staff at The Palace on the Ganges (with interestingly themed rooms). The hotel is well located, literally on the banks of the river, with breathtaking views and easy access to the... more

I stayed at Palace On Ganges, wow what a lovely stay. Close to holy ganges, nice building, nice reception, nice furniture, nice decoration and the room with diffrent themes, clean towel and bed sheet, pure veg food with a smile service. But they have one problem they dont accept the credit card...except this the stay was perfect. I will certainly... more

The location is great if you are on a short trip to Varanasi - its right on the Ghats tumble out of bed and into a boat for the early morning cruise couldn't be easier. If you are on a 1 or 2 night stop over in Varanasi this is a good place to stay. It is not 4 star... more

If you want to stay near the ghats in Varanasi, and I would recommend doing so, Palace on Ganges is one of the few decent options.

It is located in an ideal spot at the end of the river. This means that you have ease of transport yet are walking distance from the ghats. There... more

Stayed at The Palace on the Ganges (POTG) for four nights and am still not sure whether the rooms I booked via the internet were actually reserved for us - or whether we were just lucky in that rooms were available when we arrived???... more

Although not in the centre of things, the Palace on Ganges is a top-end hotel situated on Assi Ghat, about 20 minutes walking distance from the centre of the Old City of Varanasi and the main ghats. The hotel is clean and nicely decorated, has a sitting / reading area facing the Ganges, and a rooftop restaurant. Each room is... more

One of the key advantages of "Palace on the Ganges" is its location - because it's at the far end of the City on Assi Ghat it means that taxis from the station can drop you right off at the door - something that won't be so easy in the chaotic centre of the Ganges maelstrom. Rooms are based on... more
