I had a wonderful stay at Hotel Alka! The location is unbeatable,right by the Ganges with stunning sunrise views and just a short walk to the main ghats and temples. The staff were warm, helpful, and made me feel at home. I especially enjoyed relaxing on the balcony with a cup of chai, soaking in the peaceful river atmosphere. The vegetarian food was fresh and tasty. The only thing to note is that you need to walk through narrow lanes to reach the hotel, but it’s worth it for the experience. Highly recommend for anyone wanting an authentic Varanasi stay!

room and washroom was so small that very difficult to spend 3 days. Approach to property from main road was also very critical with luggage during check in and check out. Not recommended to others.

Location is great. 300-400 mtrs from Kasi Vishwanath temple, 300 mtr from Dashashwamedh ghat. one ghat is at back of the hotel itself (you can take a dip there as well) To reach hotel you need to walk 700 mtr from Godowlia chauraha as vehicles does not go further Restaurant is also good. They do provide tea as per your liking. Mushroom paratha was good too. Rooms are small but decent. Hotel maintenance is one thing they can work on. we reach late at night around 11:30 pm and had to use torch ...more

review of Hotel Alka, Varanasi The location of the hotel is truly excellent 100%. very close to temple However, the room cleanliness does not meet expectations. The room felt a bit smelly and not properly cleaned. The hotel needs to improve on this aspect.

Really the Place of Stay was Awesome as all the Holy places existing around the place of stay and the Staff were very friendly . Moreover the Hotel Alka situated at Meer Ghat with pleasant area and near to Dasaswamedha Ghat and Visweswanadh Temple as well . The services of Goibibo wonderful.

I messaged before too. It was a terrible experience, what is shown in the picture at the site and actually the condition was totally different. The room was small, not suitable for 3 people, although we reached the hotel a little late,as our train was late, in spite of these room was not prepared in advance, outside the room, lift work is going on, iron garten was placed near the room, which was risky, Even the bathroom was common but it was too small, so we could not take breath in the toilet ...more

Pros: Nice View, Good staff, Walkable distance to Kashi Vishwanath temple, Dashwamedh Ghat for Ganga aarti. Cons: No lift ( Very difficult for kids and senior citizen), No Food service in room ( Special request to be given and many follow up), No regular cleaning. Small room no extra bed sheet can be adjusted. Overall ok
