First of all I want to say thank you to everyone who hosted me in this nice Tara Guest House! The Manager Sugit helped me with my huge luggage when I arrived. He kindly met me by the road where Tara's personal driver stopped. Tara provides complimentary airport pick up. So when the car reaches the guest house there is a street you need to go by legs and the manager Sugit is there to help you with your luggage and also he shows you the way because you are going together while he kindly carry all your stuff. I wanna say thank you for the owner of The Tara Guest house and all of his family. They are always there for you to answer your questions, friendly atmosphere guaranteed 100000%. People of Tara guest house really take care of you. For example, dear Palak, who works there speaks English fluent and can easily provide you any assistance you need, as every person who works in Tara. Included breakfasts. Kitchen and opportunity to make your own meal. Tasty omelette, toasted bread with butter, masala chai (tea), coffee, black tea etc was provided for me and my friends so we were sure that we will wake up and have our sweet breakfast at our Tara so there is no need to go somewhere and search for food. We had breakfast at our guest house and if you want to cook something you just can go groceries and cook smth for yourself by yourself in a kitchen. Friendly atmosphere. I liked that you feel free at Tara guest house. You can go upstairs and sit on the terrace with plants and drink your tea there together with friends and just relax. Location is great. Tara is situated near everything you want. For example, it takes 2-5 minutes by legs to get to the most important Ghat where “Agni Pooja” (Worship to Fire) daily in the evening is happening with 7 Brahmins. Rooms As i were with ~11 friends I saw several rooms in the Tara guest house and I liked each of them and that everything is clean and washing rooms are clean 100%. I liked that rooms are different and stylish.

The property is located in heritage Bangali Tola area of Banaras very near to important ghats and 1 - 1.5 km from Kashi Vishwanath Temple. In 200 metres you get main road and on 200 meters in the opposite side you have Raja Ghat, Mansarovar ghat etc. Very strategically located. The property is kept neat and clean. Rooms are well equipped and staff is very courteous and helpful.

I didn't find anything bad. If you want to enjoy authentic old Banaras charm, this is the place. Initially, you may get harrowed by narrow bylanes, but by day 2 it will all start syncing up with you.

The property is suitably located 200 mtrs from Raja Ghat and Mansarovar Ghat in Banaras. The property is a well managed, neat and clean heritage stay with all modern amenities. It’s a perfect blend of modern living with rich banarsi culture. Owner of the property Mr. Arup Bhattacharjee, owner of the property is the most gracious host you will ever meet. I was accompanied by 3 senior citizens and they had all the praises for each staff member at the property.

Nothing. It’s simply wonderful nestled in bylanes of old Banaras.

We had the top 3 rooms as a pilgrimage group and it was perfect for us with our own floor. The garden upstairs was great for yoga-meditation. Sunni was very helpful and the Manager had a good attitude. I would not have like the lower rooms but our stay was perfect. Breakfast was very basic but offered with love by Sunni. It is well placed for everything and as quiet as could be expected. We love Varanasi and are grateful for our stay at the Tara guest house.

Our stay in Tara Guesthouse was really nice, our room was clean, with hot water running, with very comfortable soft beds and close to the ghats. Two very nice restaurant are close by (2min walk) with vegans options (mona lisa and german bakery). The hotel is well situated on a smaller street, they also offer massages and fair exchange of foreign currency.

The location was really good and very atmospheric. The staff were really helpful with all my enquiries and allowed me to leave my bag after I had checked out. Breakfast was good too.

The air-con in my room wasn’t very strong, meaning that it was hotter than was comfortable for most of my stay.

Comfortable bed, good location tucked away in a side alley not far from the river. The hosts were very friendly and helpful and helped us book our taxi. Good WiFi. Nice roof terrace, although not really many chairs. Was fine for a 1 or 2 night stay.

Couldn’t get the hot water to work, but if you ask they can sort it for you.

It’s a humble place in the heart of Varanasi, close to Ghats and shops, the atmosphere is very friendly (it’s staff home as well) and everything feels so familiar.

Nothing I didn’t like, of course is a guest house so don’t expect hotels standards, but it has all you need for a great experience

The staff is really good, they went out of the way to ensure our stay was comfortable, they gave a very good service, especially Sujit The rooms were clean when we got it and beds were comfy The place is very close to Ganga ghats Roof top room was very good and amazingly well lit

Cab goes only till one point and after that the only way to reach is to walk The other room on ground floor was too small, had zero ventilation or way for light to get in, wasn't well lit as one of the bulbs wasn't functioning, there was no electric kettle We asked multiple times for someone to clean the rooms as we stayed for 4 days but nobody cleaned the rooms, we even had to remind them to take out the garbage Reception desk used to be empty most of the times so we had to climb n go up in search for manager It was a huge hassle to wake up the manager early morning as the doors used to be locked All in all, it's not a bad place of your journey is short, but I have stayed in much better places at this price
