Affordable, heritage-style property on the banks of the Ganges
Affordable, heritage-style property on the banks of the Ganges
On the banks of the sacred Ganges River, the affordable, heritage-style Guleria Kothi is perched on Guleria Ghat and is an excellent base to discover Varanasi. Originally built in the 18th century, this converted hotel has been superbly restored using local sandstone and designed using stone columns and beams to pay tribute to Varanasi’s riverfront architecture.
Accommodation comprises 15 comfortable, tastefully decorated rooms, and whilst some overlook the river, others overlook the courtyard. At Guleria Kothi, delectable Indian cuisine is served in the rooftop restaurant. Please note that due to its position on the ghats, the hotel does not serve meat or alcohol. Although this hotel is small, the terrace next to the rooftop restaurant is ideal for relaxing and watching life unfolding along the ghats.
The hotel can only be accessed from the river, and arriving at the hotel by traditional wooden boat is an experience in itself.
