    good stay at budget price at prime Varanasi location

    anindita b.solo

    The hotel is very conveniently located. Dasashwamedh, Rajendra Prasad and Darbhanga ghats are at a walking distance. Gowdliya Chauraha (nerve centre of Varanasi) and Kashi Vishwanath temple all are within walking distance. At the same time this property is tucked into a little lane so you get relief from the infamous honking traffic. Staff is very helpful and prompt.

    The hotel is very clean, and the staff is excellent — they listen to everything. The best part is that all the religious places are nearby. In my opinion, Shivaylam Hotel is the best hotel in Varanasi.

    Worst Experience

    solo

    Bathroom is very small for letrin, they didn't changed the bedsheet for 3 days stay even after requesting in reception because they don't have personal laundry, also they don't have extra towels ready. The service is not at good. Also they don't have own cleaning staff. I will not recommend for this hotel to any one .
