Used the travel desk but it was way too expensive for what we got. Hotel is over priced and I would definitely not recommend. ##### William ### 6/10 Okay #### Sami Sep 24, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### レストランスタッフ、ハウスクリーニングのスタッフの対応は最高です。 仕事上、ネット環境が整っているホテルに滞在が必要でした。エクスディアの説明文にはネットの有線回線があり、１日１５０ルピーと表記されていたので予約をしました。そしていざホテルに宿泊に行くと、フロントスタッフの対応は酷いものでした。おまけに予約がまだないから少し待てと。更にネットを使いたいからLANケーブルを貸してくれと伝えると、Wi-Fiのみしかなく、ケーブルは無いとの返答。エクスペディアの説明文を見せてもそんなサービスは無いと。Wi-Fiの一日レンタルが１５０ルピーだと言われ、何だか騙された気分でした。フロントスタッフの対応は最悪ですが、レストランとハウスクリーニングのスタッフの対応はとても最高でした。 ##### Sami ### 8/10 Good #### David, Wollongong NSW, Australia May 11, 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good stay Very comfortable & pleasant staff.

Frequent power outage. But relatively comfortable stay compared to other indian hotels. ##### Kentaro ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Dec 5, 2011 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A good choice if you don't want to be in the bustle of the Ghats The hotel is some distance from the the ghats and Ganges so this is not for you if you want to be in the main hype of activity, but a welcome retreat if you want to be away from it all at the end of the day. The staff were not unfriendly but could be more cheerful, one or two on reception gave the impression they didn't want to be bothered with anything other than booking you in and checking you out. That said, most were more than happy to direct us to nearest chemist, travel agent, etc. The rooms were spacious and clean but there was a musty smell in one of our two rooms which I think came from insufficient airing. Otherwise the level of cleanliness and comfort were of a high standard and efficiency with laundry and room service was good. Good value for money if you don't mind paying for the taxi/rickshaw ride into the main areas around the river. ##### Verified traveller ### 2/10 Terrible #### Robert, Canada Nov 13, 2011 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hotel Ideal Tower, Stay away Room smelt of must and all linen was damp. Had to sleep with my clothes on. The next day they changed my room but only slightly better, linen still damp. I would recommend the Radisson or even better the Ramada which are in walking distance. I was so dissatisfied with this hotel that I forced myself to write a review which is not my thing. ##### Robert ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jul 18, 2011 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good luxury hotel for relatively cheap price If you're looking for a comfortable place to stay near Varanasi and Sarnath, I highly recommend the Hotel Ideal Tower. ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jul 15, 2011 Liked: Property conditions & facilities #### IDEAL TOWER Trato del personal muy bueno....tanto en restaurante como en la recepcion! ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lokesh Mar 10, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Lokesh Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Ashish May 30, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Ashish ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jul 30, 2014 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### ilya vinnik, canada Jan 1, 2014 Liked: Staff & service ##### ilya vinnik ### 6/10 Okay #### ilya, canada Dec 31, 2013 ##### ilya ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Nov 2, 2011 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hotel Ideal Tower ##### Verified traveller
