We had a wonderful stay at the Brij Rama Palace, the staff were friendly, accommodating and always welcoming. This rustic boutique hotel lends to the history of Banaras and it is an experience to be right on the Ghats and take part in all of the prayers. A big shoutout to Kushi for looking into all our requests. Highly recommend this place for the hospitality and the location.

Very expensive. Elegant hotel. Room and bathrooms are very good. Food in Udyan and Dharbhanga is quite good. Access is only by boat. Lots of luggage will be a problem. All boats and boat drivers are not equal. Plan departures accounting for the boats and the traffic. Staff are eager and polite but they need more hospitality coaching.
