Loud flute and tabla music played in the small dining room every night. Initially entertaining, but annoying afterwards. Too many Namastes from everyone makes it look artificial - loses the natural interaction with staff. Small bar area, small dining rooms, limited food choices. Luxury with dents. Lack of communication and coordination between staff.

We had a wonderful stay at the Brij Rama Palace, the staff were friendly, accommodating and always welcoming.
This rustic boutique hotel lends to the history of Banaras and it is an experience to be right on the Ghats and take part in all of the prayers.
A big shoutout to Kushi for looking into all our requests.
Highly recommend this place for the hospitality and the location.

Nice hotel - we were there during a busy holiday so price was no doubt a bit higher but good location, walkable to many areas and the river. Staff was really nice. Room was clean. Only slight downsides were the sandals in the room were clearly used but they provided daily paper slippers. Also, bathroom design is a bit funny where you walk through the shower area to get to the toilet and sink. Thus, after a shower, you have to walk through a wet floor and also the sink/toilet area gets wet. But,...

When you get to Varanasi you will realize that The Buddah Hotel is a sanctuary from the rich chaos that exists between it and the river. The rooms were modern, clean well maintained and comfortable.
