Stayed here for three nights. The family that run Subh Laxmi are unbelievably friendly. The food was really good and my girlfriend got some free Henna done. We also got a free pick up from the train station which was a godsend after the 12 hour train journey. It was clean enough and quiet. If you aren't a precious traveller... More

I arrived and had an OK room, not very big but ok. It is really noisy, at 5 am the dogs start barking and the tuktuk drivers are honking so you will wake up. The internet on the rooftop works good but a lot of power brakedowns, maybe that's normal for the area? (3 times a day). Also cold shower,... More

I got a double at the second floor and was somehow ok, but I never really had warm water. There is no wifi even if they promise it. The roof top open late and close early. Other people were reporting that at the first floor there was a mouse moving from 1 room to the other and so on. Some... More

They were totally friendly and nice. It's a familiar atmosphere and the food is all fresh done by the wife of the boss. They have a PC with W-lan for free and a very nice rooftop where you can eat and/or watch TV. We got Henna there for free whch was very nice of them. The rooms are clean and... More

We spent in Laxmi 2 nights of our stay in Varanasi and really enjoy that place. Owner and his wife create friendly and family atmosphere, providing a lot of details about the city, offering some trips in very reasonable prices etc. Rooms are basic but clean with hot water. Rooftop restaurant serves local and a bit western style food prepared... More

I found this place on hostelworld where it got great reviews. I came and found it to be just as expected. It was clean. Western toilets. Hot water. It was loud at night but everywhere in this location will be. The staff was super friendly. They gave me a map upon arrival and offered two tours that were reasonably priced... More

I must say that the rooms here are pretty basic but the family, led by Gopi, who run the guest house do what they can to make your stay as comfortable as possible. All family members who we had dealings with were very helpful and friendly and made our four days stay at Subh Laxmi Guest House a comfortable one... More

This guesthouse provides you with everything you need to experience varanasi. They have cheap, clean rooms and the superfriendly family, the owners, know all about the city. It's not easy to find the place, but it's close to a lot of interesting things to visit. They charge a correct price for tours and traintickets. They're rooftop is cosy and the... More

On arrival in Varanasi we were hassled by touts, be careful when you arrive as they just get in the taxi with you! The hotel was very central Varanasi which is the most congested place we have ever visited. The hotel was though, very cheap and if that is what you need then this would be your place, but the...

Gupti and his family try very hard to make sure your stay is comfortable and you are well looked after. the rooms are basic but we had a nice balcony where we could watch the street below. We did struggle to get much hot water from the shower but Gupti was always there to provide a bucket of hot water... More
