“Highly recommend”
+I stayed here for about 2 weeks. The staff were great, very friendly and accommodating and also helped me with any requests I had ie room cleaning, laundry, where to go in the local area for things I wanted. The location is perfect, literally walk outside and there’s the steps to the Ganga. Very reasonable price.
−No complaints.

“Disappointed and won’t recommend”
+The location… though one has walk through the narrow lanes but it’s okay
−Unclean bedsheets, pillow cover, no night lamp in the room. If a room doesn’t have a window at least night lamps should be there, I had to put on some lights for the entire night otherwise it would have been pitch black. Uncomfortable bed mattress. I had to cut off one more day and hence I stayed for just one night because I had paid

“Great location, sadly I probably wouldn’t go back if I went to that region again”
+Location was great and loved the monkeys on the roof
−Lack of English speaking staff , lack of hot water for shower , it took along time to get basics like towels and even then we were only given one so had to share.. beds could do with an upgrade

“A home complimenting the heaven that is Varanasi,- Hotel JSR Kedar”
+Har Har Mahadev ,🙏 A home away from home it was from Dec23 to Dec 26'2025 ...and just a few steps to the ghats dotting the sacred banks of the holy Mother Ganga. .. the Magnificent Kedar Temple or even to the waiting boat that will bridge you to the famous temples. In Varanasi !. It is always what happens around the purpose of yourself visit that makes a journey ever so memorable !Hotel staff was ever so co-operative . . They suggested boatman Babu who took us by ferry,( private) to the Mahadev temple .. Babu helped us reach it ..arranged lockers and a Brahmin to help us inside and waited till we returned . Small concern makes a stay ever so blissful!. I was at Varanasi for a Bharatanatyam performance at the Shankaracharya Ghat and the Ashram of His holiness Avimukteshwaranand Saraswati who is a prominent spiritual leader associated with Varanasi. It was heaven going to the waiting venue and returning to the Hotel ever so easily ! The proximity of the Ashram and every other place .. especially waking up to breathe in the Sacred river Ganga in the early serene mornings was a soulful experience. In the heaven that is Varanasi resonating with temple bells and 'Har Har Mahadev' you do

“If you want to be in the disgusting slums of Varanasi near the ghats, it is quite ok”
+Compared to the environment what is one of the worst I have ever seen, even for India, the hotel was a pleasant surprise. But nothing special. If you want to be near the ghats in the middle of the disgusting slums of Varanasi, this hotel is a good choice.
−The sheets and towels were not spotless. It was cold in the room without the option to warm it up and it didn't have window. But it was still better than taking one with windows as the street noise is just crazy. Our room was not far from the reception where the receptionist started to listen music loudly before 6AM! Some staff randomly entered into our room in the night when we were in the bed already without knocking because it was not possible to close the room properly from inside. The room was obviously without fridge. The bathroom
