We had requested from our tour provider to stay in good 3 star hotels or 4 star and had checked reviews for this place before staying so we were very disappointed on arrival. We were not welcomed on our arrival or orientated about meals, how to get a cup of tea etc. the room was very grim and we had to search for bed covers and pillows. At this stage of our trip we had been in India for a while so not unfamiliar with firm beds but our bed was shockingly hard and our door opened onto the common room so very little privacy. Lots of noise both from the street and the common room which was also  not very clean. The breakfast was also terrible. We ended our stay after one very sleepless night. In fact the only time anyone spoke to us was when they realised we wanted to leave. I don’t have any photos. I was too tired and overwhelmed to take any. 
I realise a lot of singles like this place so I will end by saying it was unsuitable for us and our needs. 

Grim 

My husband and I had a lovely stay at Granny's Inn. We felt so happy we chose it. The location was a short walk to the Ganges and ghats but it was in a quiet and calm spot. We felt so incredibly welcome,  when we got back each day we were told 'welcome home.' The manager helped us with planning trips and was so efficient, thoughtful and kind. The courtyard was a lovely place to sit and the breakfast was good. Our only regret was that we never got chance to have dinner there as it smelt amazing!

Fab place to stay in Varanasi

You NEED TO experience this lovely home away from home at least once. As far as I'm concerned, I can't imagine staying anywhere else if I come to Varanasi. The place is BEAUTIFULLY decorated yet not overdone. A lot of greenery inside the house, the traditional courtyard with the most comfortable sitting arrangement and fun doodles around to have your morning tea, the happy, colorful yet traditional decor, the curtains made out of benarasi sarees, Kashi ji's oh-so-delicious traditional fare with surprisingly no excess of oil or spices(as good as your mom's cooking if not better) and the most charming and adorable daadi... I can go on and on about this place. Please book now to know what you are missing out on.

My yearly go to place in Varanasi

I stayed at Granny's Inn in July of 2019.  It was a very nice stay where I felt welcome and safe.  My friend and I are solo female travelers and this was a perfect place for us to stay in Varanasi.  

Mayur helped arrange several tours of some beautiful temples, Saranath, and the city of Varanasi.  All the tours were wonderful, informative and exactly what we asked for.  

I highly recommend a stay of Granny's Inn in this beautiful spiritual city!

Feeling of Home

We stayed in granny's inn from 25 Nov to 28 Nov 2019.Granny's inn is very close to the main ghats and the main vishwanath Temple. The rooms are very comfortable with most basic needs catered for. The staff is very responsive and courteous. The food is simple, homely and pure veg. So if you're looking for a quiet, simple, comfortable stay at close proximity to the important Holy places, then Granny's inn is the place. The warmth and love of the old lady known as granny is a wonderful experience. You never tire to talk to her and hear her stories. A Gr8 and wonderful experience.

First visit to varanasi

Granny's Inn is the perfect place = brilliant location - everything within walking distance, tastefully furnished, courteous service, home spaces to unwind, decent food; limited accommodation for that quiet solace

Best located Home - not just a Homestay


We, three friends decided to visit the mystic holy city Varanasi. Though we generally stay in business hotels, this time we decided to do a little different by choosing homestay. Based on the reviews in TripAdvisor, we chose Granny’s Inn. After the trip I can surely say it was one of the best decision.
The entire property is neat and clean. The room allocated to us is of right size for 3 persons and washroom is also appropriate. Also a special mention about the food.  Initially we only thought of having the breakfast which was included in the package but ended up having all the major meals during our stay. Food here is simply home cooked food with amazing taste. Kashi who takes care of kitchen is always eager to prepare and treat you according to your palate.
This review will be incomplete without mentioning about Mayur. He guided us for all the shopping and famous site visits. He also ensured that we have a pleasant visit to the temple, boat rides and attending aartis. He also accompanied us for the sayan aarti (happens late night) .In fact we forgot one of our luggage and he sent it to us through courier the very next day. 

Last and not the least – Granny. She is an amazing lady, a great host and always on her toes to ensure that the guests are comfortable. The entire staff under her leadership is always with smiling face. 

Overall a great experience and for sure we will only stay here once we plan for Varanasi.

Home Away from Home

Visited Banaras during November 16-19 and stayed in Granny's Inn. The place is simple and clean, located on main Luxa road opposite PDR mall. Most tourist places of Banaras such as Kashi Vishwanath temple, Dashaswamedh Ghat, etc are walking distance from here. Many simple restaurants and famous chat house are also nearby. In Granny's provide simple breakfast. On request, they can provide lunch and dinners too. All Veg. We enjoyed our stay. 

Home stay in one of the oldest city of India - Banaras

My wife and I visited The Granny's inn during Kumbh Mela this year and stayed 3 nights.

This place is located very near to the Dashashwamedh Ghat and the Vishwanath mandir and very close to all the shopping areas.

During our stay, though we could not meet the Granny's, Mayur their manager helped us in all possible ways- arranging a boat, a taxi, a rickshaw, suggesting great places to eat, shop and also directing us to the temples and ashrams of our interest along the ghats!

The boat ride with Shyam and the taxi to Prayagraj with Virender was memorable and highly recommended.

We will definitely visit the place again. All our friend who have stayed at the inn on our recommendation have had only good things to say.

Thank you Mayur for making our stay comfortable, hassle free and memorable.

Hassle free homestay

This cozy house is a clean, spacious and an agreeable place to stay in your Varanasi jours. Away enough from the river and the tinny streets and smells, this place is run by the "grammy" since years ago. she is always around and definitely, is like being in your grandma's house. She takes care of the plants and food. They cook a lovely veggie breakfast and dinner and they are always explaining what are you eating and asking if you enjoyed it. Also, they recommend us a place to visit outside Varanasi before taking the train and helped us with the taxis both coming to pick us up from the airport and driving till the train station.
Thanks for the wonderful days we had there!
