Hotel Alka

My wife and I were visiting Varanasi for a few days and looking for a vegetarian restaurant - we were suggested Hotel Alka by our guide. We were served by ‘Jidu’ who was professional and helpful from the very beginning, he spoke very well in English which naturally was a bonus - especially as we wanted to avoid meals with nuts in. Food was delicious - we had 2 plain daals, 1 cheese pulao, 1 cucumber salad, 2 lassies and 2 chai’s to finish. This all came to only 920 rupees (around £7.70). We were also able to get a table with a view of the River Gange. Jidu went above and beyond - especially on our 2nd occasion here, as I wasn’t feeling too well and he was there to provide assistance where we needed, without asking of him. Definitely recommended to visit 🙏🏼

Property location is very good, but rooms are very compact & bathroom is disgusting. Please check before booking this hotel. very difficult to enter inside the toilet & bathrooms.

It was a wonderful stay with scenic views from the balcony. The rooms were comfortable. The staff was very courteous. overall it was a wonderful experience.

Hi. My experience in staying in this hotel was terrible. The staff members were not at all cooperative. There was not coveyance facility on the way to hotel.

The accommodations do not align with the price quoted and are considered overpriced. The hotel is situated approximately 1 kilometer from Gadaulia Chowk, accessible only via narrow streets, with no vehicle access available. Although the hotel is located in Meer Ghar, it is not advisable for families due to its distance from the main road, despite the staff being commendable. In case of an emergency, there is a risk of missing a train.

The room service is poor, they are uninterested in serving and often tend to refuse. Inhospitable to extensions, we stayed almost a week and it seemed we had overstayed our welcome. Wifi does not work properly, they take laundry only at a particular time and even though I was assured my clothes would be collected, they never followed through, in a week even! All services are practically non-existent. The view is the only saving grace.

Bad experience in this Hoetal. 50 plus koi a he nhi peay ga. Hoetal me aane ka jo rasta hi wo bhuet khrab hi
