Lanka Hotels, Varanasi

"It was pretty old hotel "

"We arrived with no expectations, but the entire experience turned out to be truly wonderful. From the warm and attentive staff to the relaxing spa, everything exceeded what we had imagined. The food was exceptional—whether it was the delicious Sattu Paratha at breakfast, the flavorful dinner thali, or the beautifully curated 10-course tasting menu. The highlights didn’t stop there. The Banarasi paan was the perfect finishing touch, and the cultural experiences added so much charm—from soulful sitar and sarangi performances to the captivating Kathak dance and even an insightful session with the astrologer. The location itself was magical. The boat ride along the ghats, the genuine care from the staff, and the breathtaking night-time Maha Aarti viewed from the boat made for an unforgettable, mesmerizing experience. This entire journey has left me with a deep desire to return to Varanasi again and again. "
