It was beautiful any place your eyes looked. The staff there were extremely helpful. Went over and beyond for anything we wanted. It's an experience staying at this place. Will recommend this to all my friends and family.
Food is indulgent and tasty. I wish there were lighter fare options that are local.

Hotel storico situato sulla sommità di un ghat che conduce al fiume Gange. Atmosfera magica, personale impeccabile e ottimo ristorante.
Rapporto qualità-prezzo non ottimale per gli standard indiani

Absolutely amazing, historical riverfront palace recently renovated. Oasis of peace for body and mind in the picturesque yet chaotic streets of Varanasi. Restaurant is one of the best we tried and yoga class at sunrise is definitely worth the early alarm!

Public spaces are lovely. The staff were excellent.
The rooms are a little on the small side.

What an amazing place by the Ganges. I loved everything about the hotel.
I have to give a special mention to Jagan and Kewal who were absolutely courteous and exceeded our expectations. They truly deserve appreciation from the management for their over and above service.
The view from the hotel is spectacular.. The food at the restaurant is mouthwatering.. The rooms are cozy.. The architecture is marvellous.. Quality at its best!
I wish the bathrooms had glass cubicles so water doesnt spill over.

Everything. The boat ride to get you to the hotel, the friendly staff, the extra services provided, the rooms. They have an entire programme of activities to keep you busy and in the hotel. This was very useful as we arrived very tired on the first day and it was 40 C outside.
The hotel very expensive for India, but it is worth every penny and is an unforgettable experience
The restaurant. I'm not very into vegetarian food, but that's all they had.

The extremely courteous staff and the attention they gave us. It’s expensive , but worth every bit of money. They had very good artists giving live performance - the Kathak and flute recitals are extraordinary. It stands out in terms of cleanliness and the facilities provided. The staff at all levels are world class - I have travelled the globe, but the staff here are one of the best.
A bit pricy.😀 but you get the service for the price .

I reccomend booking the hotel car service, easy to find driver, felt safe and comfortable. You take a boat to get to the hotel which is an activity itself. When we arrived there were unexpected complimentry activities at different times of day which was such a value add. Frome henna to a flute player to a dancing couple and more. You won't find better hospitality either, every question, request or interaction was met with full attention.
The breakfast is fantastic with many options of Indian breakfast, but also pancakes, eggs, fruit & pastries. Tea time was also included and included snacks. We enjoyed a beautiful roof top meal (ask about this) which was a nice change from the everyday restaurant. Basically if food a is a concern, you will never go hungry here.
There are additional things that also made the stay lovely but I"ll leave those for you to discover. If we return to Varanasi we would absolutely stay here and reccomend to others.
It did not impact us, but be aware there are several stairs from the boat to the hotel entrance. It might be challenging for older travelers with knee issues but the hotel staff is FANTASTIC and take your luggage and would help you up.

The Brijrama Palace is simply beautiful and in the best location in Varanasi. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and always there to help you with any request. The breakfast and lunch at the hotel were excellent. We also enjoyed very much the music and dance performances they have at the hotel throughout the day.

The hospitality. The quality of food, place and comfort
Price is too high for the amenities provided. Not happy with airport pick up and drop off charges. There are times we felt some smells in corridors and corners. The rugs in the room are dirty. The wifi is slow and sometimes didn’t even work. The information about what to expect while coming and during stay was missing.

Brijrama Palace is such a truly beautiful hotel. Situated right in the banks of the Ganges, it’s an experience that will stay with you forever! Your wonderful experience starts right from your arrival. You get picked up in their boat and get taken along the Ganges to their hotel. You then enter the hotel to what can only be described as mind blowing beautiful hotel. It’s an Indian palace that transcends you back to old heritage india. The ambience of the hotel matches its surroundings from the beautiful nightly traditional Indian dancing shows, to complimentary evening boat ride on the Ganges to see the prayers (arti) and shows. But best of all was waking up to the most serene, gentle sound of live traditional flute playing outside your door - it was just heaven! As for the views, it’s nothing but breathtaking whether its sunrise or sunset, your eyes and senses will be on overdrive. Last but not least, the restaurant prepared the most exquisite food, big compliments to their chefs! The hotel is unquestionably on the high end cost wise, but if you can afford it, I promise you won’t regret the experience.
