DAY 24 - DAY 30
Our first stop into India was what people say is one of the most challenging places, so we prepared for a little crazy. After quite the travel day (consisting of a rooftop bus ride, a bike rickshaw, a border crossing, a 3hr local bus, a 7hr train, then an auto-rickshaw) we arrived to discover a colourful, messy, chaotic, …

Pema Problems
The Ganpati Guest House in Varanasi isn't accessible by car, so Gupta Uncle parked at a taxi stand and we waited for the guesthouse porters to come fetch us. When they arrived, the porters unloaded our suitcases and prepared for the schlep to Ganpati while Leslie paid Gupta Uncle. He counted the money, frowned, counted it a second time, and spoke …

TravelPod Member ReviewsGanpati Guest House Varanasi
Loved this pace, on Meer Ghat, in between two main Ghats (ceremony and burning ghat) in the heart of the Old City and its labrynth of laneways. Rooms are beautifully decorated with lovely details in the room (inscence in room, toy elephants hanging from curtain rails, sequinned bedspread and pillows) - it really is a nice change from the basic rooms in our budget price range. Awesome staff, lovely rooftop restaurant. Not a bad thing to say about this place!

Very good vibe and atmosphere.
Good service, hot water, fine food.
A little expensive compared to India (500 rps for a room without a bathroom) the toilets were not at the same floor as our room which was a little annoying, and there were only two share able bathrooms...
Also outside our room there was a sitting area so from around 8 am people sat there and we couldn't sleep. If you r willing to pay more there r really good rooms there.

From our experience and comments from many other people, Ganpati is the best place to stay in Varanasi. We had adjoined rooms with a large balcony right on the river front. The rooftop food was fine and a really nice place to relax after the intest walkabout of the city. Thanks Chiku and everyone at Ganpati!! See you next time.
