We had a room with river view which was lovely.
Air conditioner worked well and also had a fan.
Hotel staff extremely helpful and went out of their way to make us feel welcome.
Bed comfortable and shower was very good.
Breakfast included which we picked off of a menu. First day raining so we had in our room, second day on the roof top which had great view.
After contacting them prior to staying they organised shuttle from airport and return as you can not park close to the B&B.
Short walk to lots of restaurant options also and shops for tourist stuff for chemist etc all within easy reach.
Would definitely return and recommend.

Conveniently located guest house overlooking Chauki Ghat. The staff were friendly and helpful, and a good breakfast was provided. The management were very keen to organise a transfer from the train station, although we suspect we may have paid over the odds for it.

The location is excellent near the river. Be prepared to wind through the maze of streets yo get to property because a rickshaw can't take you all the way. The staff was very helpful in booking rickshaws and a tour to Sarnath. They were very friendly. Breakfast was delicious on the terrace looking over the river.

Amazing place for the most reasonable price among many hotels and guest houses in Varanasi. I travelled alone and was afraid to face bad behavior, not so clean rooms and other problems. But the team of Kedareswar BB is doing the amazing job!
The hotel is on the Ghat that is super easily reachable both from the big road, and from the river side. The location is super safe and spacious, so you will not get lost or scared by narrow streets. And you can enjoy Ganga view in the mornings right from the hotel's rooftop or your window.
The hotel is super clean and neat, and the team, Pintu and Mintu bothers are real gentlemen, that control the high class service, atmosphere and attitude to tourists in the hotel, by its staff and service workers. Rooms are neat, hot water is always there and working well. Internet, lights and anti mosquitos devices are at your disposal.
Importantly, the team really helps. They always talk to tourists, explain locality and some context that you may no know. They recommend you where to go, to eat or drink, can help organizing the boat on Ganga river and taxi and many other things. They do it because they care, not because they want to get your budget for senseless activities, no. Pintu and Mintu are really nice people that do not overcharge or lie.
I enjoyed my stay and I want to come back. I am super grateful for the team, the family of owners of the hotel for being nice people and providing incredible experience in incredible India! Good luck!

スタッフの方は、英語の他に日本語も話せるため、安心できました。朝食も付いており、オムレツが美味しかったです!屋上からはガンジス川がいつでも眺められるため、立地も非常に良い印象でした。
また、観光スポットやバスの予約などのお手伝いもしていただき、非常に良かったです!

They gave us the top floor room, and there was also the terrace where we had breakfast every day with the view of the Ganges.
LOVED our firstcontinental breakfast (which was included in the accommodation) after having Indian food for every meal (because we loved it so much), and loved the choices they gave you, between different styles omelettes,yogurt, toasts, etc.
Rooms weren't the biggest, but has been one of our favourites of the entire India trip (one of the coziest for sure). Loved that it was right on the Ganges, and very convenient location to explore the Ghats. The cozy blankets were a nice touch for the cold nights. Staff was very nice as well. Truly recommend this place!!

Kedareswar is situated on the Ganges river ghats with an exceptional view from its river-facing rooms and rooftop terrace (where breakfast is served), located deep in the citys labyrinth of lanes, a great location not too near the noisy center of Dasashwamedh/Godolia but still walking distance. Its rooms and beds are simple but do have air conditioning, wifi, and round the clock hot water, all appreciated. The staff is incredibly helpful and kind. Breakfasts were great.

Location is convenient by the Ghats. This place is run by all guys, there are no women working there. The bathroom situation is odd, when you have a shower the floor stays wet so later when you use the facilities you must walk on a cold wet floor. I was grateful for lots of hot water for showers however. Some of the guys were friendly & others were difficult & I tried to avoid them. I don’t think that they understand how to clean floors ie like use hot water & soap & clean rags. You will see for example them drying the floor rags that are filthy to use for next time. You can eat on a roof top with a view but you must tolerate one of the kitchen guys standing next to you picking his nose or worse things with his nose while you try to swallow your breakfast. I will not be back.

Kedareswar B & B is in a prime location. The room was clean and comfortable. The staff lined up an excellent guide for the local area as well as a sunrise boat cruise on the Ganges. The view from the roof is exceptional (where they also serve a lovely breakfast). Considering the limited options of quality accommodations on the ghats, this is a great choice and good value.

If you go Varanasi, the only place to stay is on the ghats and not is some swanky 5 star place 10km from where the action is. Unfortunately there are only 2 star places BUT this hotel should be rated 3 stars. Comfortable rooms, good service, good wifi, this hotel not only a view of the Ganges from most rooms but its situated right on the ghats. I couldnt have asked for more

We had a large room with river views. Good fans. Ok air con. Intermittent wifi. Helpful staff who speak english well enough to communicate. Good breakfast. Like to comment on their honesty and the honesty of the services they use - unbeknownst to me i left my camera in the taxi they use. While checking in a phone call came in to say something was left in the taxi. Within half an hour it was returned to me with everything in the case-sd cards,spare lens etc..Very very honest. Will stay again if I visit varanasi in future.

Location is great, right on the Ganges. 10 minute walk to the main ceremonies. The area is very much the getto, but Varanasi by the Ganges is like that. The main this about this review is Very Clean. Roof top great pics of the Ganges. You can’t go wrong with this budget diamond in the rough.

I only had one night in Varanasi but Gopal (and his brother) made sure everything went very well during my stay, from pick up and drop off at the airport to visiting the city safely. Breakfast was lovely on the terrace overlooking the Ganges and the tours organised were really interesting and authentic. A shame I couldn't stay longer!

Good location on the river and the olds lanes. Pretty easy to find. Was cleaned, unsure whether sheets are washed in and dried on banks of Ganges or not but seemed ok. All in all was happy. Breakfast was ok

This is a great hotel if you are not looking for common luxury but original, homey and welcoming place right on the ghats. Worth it.

Stayed 3 nights at Kedareswar.
They gave us free water on the first day. On the 2nd day, we also requested water. They didn't say anything when giving out water, but on the day of check-out, they charged us 50 rupees for the water.
The staff who takes care of our lugguage and cooks breakfast is super nice and kind. Although he barely speaks English, we could feel his warm hospitality. The owner of the property usually lies on the couch with half-naked body which made us quite uncomfortable to stay in the lobby. He didn't even say hello to us while reluctantly responding to our request. However, all other staff members were kind in general.
The view from the rooftop was fantastic. Their airport pick up and drop(850 rupees each way) was very convenient. The price is quite high in the region.

The hotel is right on the banks of the holy Ganga River in Chowki Ghat. The hotel will arrange for you to be picked up at the airport. The taxi will drop you off a 5 minute walk away from the hotel. The hotel can only be approached through narrow alleys which are populated by people, monkeys, goats, stray dogs, cows, lined by shops, shrines. From the drop-off point, you can either walk or take a cycle rickshaw. You can request lunch & dinner at the front desk. The food is ordered from a nearby vegetarian restaurant (suryoday). The food is excellent, simple & hygienically prepared & delivered. Request rooms which offer view of the holy river. The front desk will arrange a guide to take you to the temples & a car to take you to nearby attractions (Sarnath, Chunar). There is 24 hour hot water (runs tepid). Soap, lotion, shampoo, conditioner is not provided.

Very effective e-mail communication before our arrival regarding additional services - taxi from/to the Varanasi airport, morning and evening river boat trip.
Hotel staff expected us on the main street - the taxi from the airport cannot get close to the B&B. They carried our luggage and took us to the site (not an easy task to get through a maze of narrow streets and an evening busy street life). Same help when leaving for the airport.
Prearranged boat trips (morning/evening) exactly as agreed upon - price/time.

I really enjoyed this hotel as the location is right along the Ghat of Varanasi. You can walk or be on any ghat and walk all the way from one end to the next. This hotel by the main ghat (5 minutes where they do the ceremony). Everything was walking distance. You can find many restaurants nearby. The hotel itself was clean for the most part, I was not a fan of the restroom because the toilet, shower, and sink were all next to each other. So when I would shower, the toilet would be wet. The bathroom floors were ALWAYS wet because of the shower. so BRING SANDALS. Because it was hard to walk barefoot in the restroom or with socks, then walk out to the bedroom with wet feet. Varanasi is a poor city so I do not expect to be in a 5 star resort (unless you're further away from the ghat or are paying $300/night). This hotel was reasonably priced. Breakfast? You HAD to order it, it's not like buffets in the morning as many people are used to. You would sit on the terrace and they would come to bring you breakfast (which was included). Staff was extremely nice. Taxi rides can be arranged from the hotel TO the airport, however they did not contact me back from getting a taxi from the airport TO the hotel. So I had to make sure I had to the hotel on my GPS so that when I went to the pre-paid taxi booth at the airport, I was able to show them where the hotel was located, they dropped us off 5 minutes from the hotel and we had to FIND the rest of the way there by my phone GPS.

This property is what it says, a small bed and breakfast owned by a family who actually lives on property and runs it. Positive things about this property are location (you can walk everywhere and its located right in front of the Ganges river with great morning views). Breakfast is good and safe to eat and staff are friendly and accommodating. A few negative points are the lack of air conditioning in the room (it has a ceiling fan though) and neighborhood can be quite noise at all times (had to wear earplugs to fall asleep). Overall, I would stay at this property again.

The location in the middle of the Ghats along the Ganges is unbeatable. While having the included breakfast on the roof, you are staring at the river. Besides that the staff is attentive and eager to assist booking extra excursions like boat rides or a trip to the Buddhist site Sarnath. Tip from me: take them up on the offer of an airport pickup and save yourself the headache of negotiating a fare. The last part of the journey will be on foot, so better to have hotel staff directing you. They also had the best combination of hot water and shower pressure I experienced in a month of travel in India. Had a great stay!
