Rahul Guesthouse is a wonderfully situated place in Varanasi, far away from the city's chaos but right on the Ganga river. From the rooms and the terrace you can enjoy a stunning view of the Ganga. The staff is very friendly and helpful and the house is nice. The rooms are not so clean (especially mattresses) but for Varanasi's standards... More

Clean and friendly family-run guesthouse in quiet neighbourhood, walking distance from Assi Ghat.. One of the best we stayed in India.We had a deluxe room, which was great. Big, clean and nicely decorated. No topsheet on the bed though, only a (very soft) blanket. Nice riverview from rooftop restaurant and good food. Owner and his family are very friendly and... More

My friend and I stayed here for 4 nights and we were both unanimous that our stay here left a bad note on our vacation... Upon leaving the airport the driver sent by the guest house asked us to pay for the parking fee... A weird start to our time here seeing as we paid for a pickup... So that... More

First of all I would like to say that overall this isn't a terrible place. It offers a pick up from the airport, the boat rides are nice and they help you organize other activities. That beig said i was very upset with three things. The wifi, the power and the restarauny. First of all the person running the restaraunt... More

During my 5 week trip to india my final stop was Varanasi.I stayed at Rahul guest house for 4 nights in March 2012. The service and food were great. One of the few places in India to eat that did not give me diarrhoea. Rahul guest house is 10 mins walk to Assi Ghat with great views up the Ganga... More

After reading the reviews and choosing this guest house for my stay in Varanasi I had difficulty believing that I was staying at the same place that was described here. The "deluxe" rooms did have a view of the Ganges, however as another reviewer pointed out the "non-deluxe" rooms really were not suitable (no windows, very small). The rooms were... More

The best place we stayed on our entire trip to India! It is a bit too far South of the major sites in Varanasi to say that this hotel is perfect, but in every other way, it was. The sites can be walked to but don't do it on a hot sunny day at noon like we did, walk early... More

Nice quiet spot with a river view outside the city south of assi ghat (10 min walk), so nice and quiet. Free wifi, nice breakfast and extremely friendly staff (took me on their motor bike to get my bag fixed free of charge). The room was small but functional. We would have no hesitation coming back to this place.
