Amritara Suryauday Haveli

Did not clean room between two nights Expensive compare to hotel level Great location

Varanasi is crazy, vibrant and busy. Suryauday Haveli was a wonderful place to stay. Quiet, very clean and very comfortable. Staff extremely helpful and the best thing - its right on a ghat on the Ganges and in the old town.

What an amazing place. I’ve stayed at “fancier” places along the Ganges for a lot more money. And this place is better! Great view that the others don’t have, superior service, exceptional restaurant, great location. When I come back I’m definitely staying here

We were welcomed with a blessing and cup of tea. We came to experience the Ganges. The people, property and location all helped fulfill this reality. The food was delicious with a family environment. Vegetarian and no alcohol on property. This place is real and charming, not grand and luxurious. We enjoyed strolling around the Ganges and the convenience could not be beat, our morning and evening voyeur window to look down to see what was happening on the ghat. The roof top view was spectacular. We would definitely return to this property, simply for the charm of the people who work there, food and location. They helped us coordinate a trip to Sarnath, which was thoroughly enjoyable.

We have stayed in this beautiful located Haveli the first weekend of December. We were warmly welcomed by the staff. They allowed us to check-in early. Served the breakfast on the balcony and helped also with the logistics for our checkout. The rooms are spacious, great showers and good ambiance.

The best of the hotel , is it the people . They are very nice,welcoming, attentive and helpful, always pending on all details . The hotel is very clean and comfortable, like an oasis in the middle of the crazy Varanasi. Location is perfect , right on the ghat area. On the down side the hotel is one hour away from the airport thru a city chaotic traffic and it is situated in an area just for pedestrian so you have to walk about 10 - 15 min thru confusing narrow streets that I assure you will get lost . Very difficult if u have a lot of luggage. No sings and people give you confusing directions. We try to call the day before for the hotel pick up but we could not communicate with the hotel , nevertheless we use the cab stand at the airport, that is almost 3 time cheaper that the hotel price and and we made the walk after without majors complications . The hotel is expensive . During my stay in India , I stayed at only 5 start hotels and this one was the most expensive , and not necessary the best one , but due it is Varanasi maybe is worth it , u can decide. The restaurant on site is vegetarian. I ordered the sample platter and it was very tasty. Read some negative reviews about the price of the food but I think it was good . Unfortunately breakfast was not that great . In general , I had a great time and I would like to thank to all the hotel people that are special and made us feel like a second home . Oh and by the way Varanasi is a unique experience.

Fantastic location but hotel is a little tired. Make sure you get river view No meat or alcohol in the hotel
