They washed clothes for us which came back quickly and were reasonably priced. Staff are friendly and helpful but I wouldn't recommend the boat trip organised by them.

I stayed at Golden River during Kumbh Mela 2025. Neeraj was very helpful and knowledgeable of Varanasi and made my stay much better. Neeraj and his staff, especially Manaj, were all kind, friendly and willing to help. They even looked after me by getting me food and supplies when I was sick. I hope to stay at Golden River for the next Kumbh Mela and maybe before. Kumar2025-04-19Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. मस्त!! lovely people and profitable stay. Micol Marchi2025-03-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very nice mid-class hotel, with everything you need. The rooms are normal size, spacious, silent and with airconditioning. The rooms are simple but clean, qnd the guest house provides everything needed. Great location - 10 minutes away from the center, which is perfect to be outside the noise and pollution. And perfect entrance to the Ghat. Very good breakfast. Owner is very friendly, helped us also with the bus ticket and a couple of things in the city. I will for sure go back! David Tipene-Leach2025-03-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sally and I stayed in hotels across India but this Guest House was the best experience. Neeraj, Radha and the kids were just great with Neeraj a mine of information. Manos and VJ were consistently respectful, friendly and helpful and the lemon ginger tea was superb. The kitchen and the cooking was simple and wonderful. The room was comfortable and clean, the bathroom and hot water was better than the hotels and the location in the heart of ‘old’ Varanasi was (4mins from the ghats) a busy, noisy and delightful experience. With the hugely busy and crowded condition because of Maha Kumbh Mela and the Shivatatri occasions, the Golden River and its rooftop were an ideal ‘home away from home’. Hanuman das of Honolulu2025-03-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We stayed for 10 days after Mahakumbh before Shivaratri. Kashi was very busy at that time and most hotels were charging super high prices for a night, but Golden River kept their prices reasonable. Neeraj, owner/manager of Golden River was welcoming & very easy going. Whatever was wanted or needed he assured could be arranged. We stayed on 2nd floor in a small standard room that was adequate & the bed was very comfortable. All staff are very nice, helpfull and very good - keeping the place very clean at all times. Breakfast was ok but very limited and they made excellent honey lemon ginger chai whenever we asked. Location is excellent - no real view but very convenient between Shivala and Assi Ghat close to Ganga Maa and very quiet neighborhood. Excellent chai shop across the street and laundry wallah next door. When it came time to leave Neeraj assisted in getting me to the bus station outside the city and was available by phone if needed. I felt safe & well cared for in the Golden River Homestay 🙏🏾💗🙏🏾
