Trilok Residency Dashashwamedh Varanasi

Trilok Residency is a guesthouse located very close to Dashashwamedh Ghat, one of the main ghats in Varanasi. My group was so satisfied with this place that we extended our stay from one day to a total of three days. Firstly, due to ongoing cable car construction, we had to walk to the guesthouse. Two staff members kindly met us and accompanied us, even helping with our luggage. They were incredibly friendly. Furthermore, Akash, the owner, provided our group with free bottled water twice. Beyond that, he gave us an introduction to Varanasi's main tourist attractions and ghats, ***** with very useful tips. He advised us on the best routes and shared valuable information to help us avoid being overcharged. Above all, Akash is extremely friendly. He was always hospitable and went out of his way to ensure our group was comfortable. If you're coming to Varanasi, this guesthouse is definitely worth visiting!

The owner is incredibly kind! The room is super comfortable, with air conditioning and a hairdryer available. They were so helpful, sharing tips about tourist spots and things to be aware of in Varanasi. Highly recommend this hotel! 👍👍

The location was fantastic, with easy access to the famous ghats, making it super convenient to get around. While it might not be obvious from the pictures, the room was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. I arranged for airport transfer, but due to ongoing construction, the taxi could only go as far as the main road. A hotel staff member came to meet me there and helped carry my luggage, which was a huge relief given the rough road. I honestly might have gotten lost trying to find it on my own. Throughout my stay, they also sent useful tourist information and tips via WhatsApp, which made my Varanasi trip even more meaningful. Thank you!

My first solo trip to India, Varanasi edition! After checking reviews on Google Maps, I was reassured by the owner Akash's offer to provide information via WhatsApp, so I decided to stay two nights at Trilok Residency. The day before my arrival, Akash messaged me to ask about my check-in time. I was traveling from Agra to Varanasi by sleeper train, arriving at 3:40 AM, which meant a long wait until the standard 12 PM check-in. However, thanks to Akash's generosity, he offered a complimentary early check-in from 6:30 AM, so I headed straight to the hotel. The room was clean and tidy, and there was hot water for the shower. The water pressure was a bit low, but perfectly acceptable. They also provided several bottles of complimentary water, and Wi-Fi was available. Having tissues in the room was a small but much-appreciated detail. During my stay, Akash provided daily tourism information, and what I appreciated most was his advice on how to protect myself from scammers. There were many aggressive scammers at the Manikarnika Ghat cremation ground, but because he had forewarned me, I was able to sightsee without being tricked. Even at check-out, he messaged me to say I could have a complimentary late check-out until my flight, which I gratefully took advantage of, leaving about two hours later. Overall, it was a fantastic hotel. Whenever I talked to locals and told them where I was staying, they would always say, 'Oh, that's a good hotel!' It seems to be highly regarded by the locals as well. If you're feeling anxious about your first time in India, I highly recommend Trilok Residency!!! It will surely make for an excellent Varanasi trip! Highly recommended!!
