Quality Inn City Centre Varanasi

This hotel was just as pictured, which was great. I'd say it's clean enough even for Japanese standards. Regarding the area, since the hotel is located on a main street, there are no major downsides if you plan on using Uber for transportation. Depending on the time of day, rides usually cost around 100-200 rupees. I even had an early morning trip and was able to find a ride quickly. The hotel staff were all very polite, and the security staff were equally courteous. I kept going outside to smoke, and by the end, we were even sharing cigarettes – that's how friendly they were. It was the perfect balance of interaction. Also, I wanted to leave the AC and fan on while I was out to dry my laundry. So, I put a teabag in the card key slot, left a message saying "please keep it turned on" with a tip, and when I returned, a different card key had been inserted! Thanks to that, I was able to dry all my accumulated laundry. There were no major issues with the water facilities either. The main sink felt a bit too small, but it wasn't a significant negative. Oh, and this is unrelated, but the curry at a place called Mitra Da Dhaba near the hotel was incredibly delicious. It's about a 3-minute walk away, slightly different from the location shown on Google Maps, but it was unbelievably cheap, the portions were huge, and the taste was just perfect. I almost never visit the same restaurant multiple times when I travel, but I went there twice!

Amazing hotel! Great neighborhood, close to shops, cafes, a currency exchange, and delicious restaurants. Everything is conveniently located. The entire staff is very friendly and attentive, top-notch service all around. The breakfast is tasty, offering local cuisine or, for those like me, toast and scrambled eggs. It meets 5-star hotel standards. I've visited 30 countries (over 50 hotels), and this hotel has definitely made it into my top favorites!

A wonderful European-class hotel. 10-15 minutes to the ghats by tuk-tuk. Good breakfasts. The hotel restaurant offers excellent Indian and European cuisine. If we return to Varanasi, we'll choose this hotel! Friendly staff.

Truly one of the best hotels in India, and absolutely perfect for the price. The rooms are clean and stylish, absolutely European-quality (without any local quirks). Highly recommended!

Excellent hotel. Very clean, friendly receptionist, helpful, answers all questions. There's a restaurant on the 4th floor where they made me an omelet because I was tired of Indian food. I recommend it.
