We stayed at the Diamond Hotel during Kumbha Mela, as there was no other accomodation we could find for our dates, that was near the Ghats. Diamond is a walk to the Ghats and the Ganges, and the temples, but not too far. The room was basic, dirty, old. We used silk sheets we carry while travelling for exactly this... More

I have had good dinners twice at this hotel, once in 2011 and once in 2012. The menu is good, the staff helpful and the price reasonable. What's more at the height of summer the AC is pretty good too. I went with a friend who is a local and who finds it good value and in a convenient location.

Pros : 1.road touch. 2. near one mall (Here you get awesome food in Bikanerwala ) Cons: 1. Rooms are dirty. 2. 10 years old bedsheets. 3. Low and... More

This is a hotel offering basic amenities in the heart of Varanasi...the rooms are live able, the bathroom is clean..the restaurant offers decent variety of food. Overall, it is good value for money! There is a Spencer's supermarket nearby from where you can buy the basic food stuff.

If you don't want to pay an arm and a leg for a nice quality AC(for the summer) filled room you gotta check out the Diamond Hotel.

We stayed here two nights as most other places were booked out. We had two cockroaches in the bathroom. The rooms are basic. The location is okay, but it is a ten minute walk to the Ganges River. The restaurant is good. Service is a bit lacking.

We stayed at the Diamond Hotel in October 2011 for 2 days. The hotel is not extra-ordinary but is definitely worth staying at primarily because of its location. Situated just on the parallel road to the chaotic by-lanes of the ghats, its away yet close to most of the places that you would visit. The restaurant is good but expensive.... More
