Hotel Ideal Tower Reviews, Varanasi

A very neat and clean hotel located in one of the cleaner areas of Varanasi. Courteous staff and delicious food add to the pleasant experience of putting up at Ideal towers

The service provided at the break-fast time is very lousy and slow. But the lunch and dinner served at our room was very tasty.

Ok.

Overall feel is average. Definitely lot more costly for the standard they are offering. I have paid less for such hotels even in city like Hyderabad

To start with, the booking with the hotel was for a standard room whereas I paid for a deluxe room. After discussions the manager consented to change the room. In the new room, the phone was not working, which was later fixed. The TV was not working and therefore, after one night they changed the room again. Not going to be be my choice for my next visit to Varanasi.

Staff was helpful and friendly. I made a mistake and thought hotel had parking space...but they very willingly allowed us to park inside the premises after 10pm. The room was a decent size. Extra bed fitted easily.(Expensive: Rs.1250 + tax) given that the double room was for about Rs.2500 or so. Nevertheless, we were very comfortable. The restaurant is a bit on the expensive side....they really want you to have the buffet. Lots of foreigners (groups) seem to use this hotel and the buffet is always on (Rs.550+). We did eat at the restaurant, but ordered 'a la carte Indian'. Very ordinary quality of food. ( One Tandoori roti is Rs. 50 plus tax!!) But the nice part is: not more than a 100 meters from the hotel is a shopping mall with McDonalds and Pizza Hut. Also, ice creams, coffee, candy..so there is no real need to get fleeced at the hotel. Breakfast buffet, incl. in our booking, was good. Varanasi is a very busy town and getting to the hotel is a bit complex.

Excellent hospitality by the hotel staff and well taken care. Value for money, but bit away from important pilgrimage places.

Hotel staff were friendly and attentive, rooms clean and well equipped, buffet good value and great food.

Property is good but not managed professionally. Food quality is below standard. Not at all recommended at this price. I think its tariff should not be more than INR 1500/- Only good part is location as it is in a less crowded area and we didnÂ’t need to struggle Varanasi traffic while coming from the airport. A mall and multiplex is also nearby.

The hotel has the requisite amenities and facilities for an average middle income group class people visiting Varanasi. The hotel has very courteous and well behaved staff that is there to provide a good service. However, the taxi pick up charges from airport provided by hotel is very expensive (twice) as compared to private taxis available at the doorstep of the hotel.
