J’ai grandement apprécié mon séjour au Kapoor Sahab Homestay. Le logement était propre et disposait de tous les aménagements nécessaires pour passer un excellent séjour. Mais je tiens surtout à souligner les grandes qualités de notre hôte, Amit Kapoor. Que ce soit par sa réactivité pour résoudre le moindre problème, son exceptionnelle serviabilité ou encore sa grande gentillesse, il a vraiment contribué à rendre notre séjour mémorable. Dans le tumulte que peut parfois être Varanasi, cet endroit devient un véritable petit havre de paix où l’on se sent comme chez soi. Merci encore pour cette hospitalité parfaite et pour votre accueil chaleureux.
Very Neat & Clean Rooms
First Floor with staircase.. No help to transfer luggage from car to Room...
Had a wonderful stay at this homestay! The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and the hosts were incredibly warm and helpful throughout my visit. It truly felt like a home away from home and made my Varanasi trip even more memorable.
The room is fantastic so comfortable and the kitchen is lovely has been so nice to cook. The homestay is within walking distance of the temple which is lovely as well! The hosts are fantastic they are caring and sweet it has been a pleasure staying here and I would stay again!

The rooms are impeccably clean and come equipped with practical amenities like a gas stove, oven, fridge, and RO water. Mr. Amit Kapoor is an exceptional host who provides proactive communication, a warm welcome, and essential help with local sightseeing and cab bookings. The relaxing environment was ideal for a multi-generational family trip, allowing elderly family members to recover comfortably after busy days of exploring.
The property is extremely well maintained, clean, spacious and comfortable. All the appliances are in perfect working condition. There is enough shelf space to keep your belongings and the bathroom was large spacious. The aesthetics of the place is perfect.

Our stay at Kapoor Sahab Homestay in Varanasi was truly wonderful. From the very first day, Mr. Kapoor personally came to receive my family, which immediately made us feel welcomed and cared for. He took the time to explain everything about Varanasi, suggested must-visit places, and even guided us on reasonable auto and car fares — something that was extremely helpful for first-time visitors. The house itself is beautiful, well-maintained, and spotlessly clean. Daily cleaning was done regularly, which made our stay even more comfortable and stress-free. What stood out the most was his genuine care — he checked in with us every day to make sure everything was going well and that we were enjoying our stay. The location is another big advantage. It is very close to Assi Ghat, Sankat Mochan Temple, and Durgakund Temple, making it convenient for sightseeing. The homestay is also about a 40-minute drive from the airport, which is quite manageable. I would 💯 recommend Kapoor Sahab Homestay to anyone visiting Varanasi. It offers not just a place to stay, but a warm, homely experience with a thoughtful and attentive host. Sanghamitra Dey 🇦🇺

Everything was good. The place smelled very nice. The bed was comfy and the bathroom functional. The room was spacious with a lot of storage facilities. The host was very helpful and we highly recommend him. He gave us a lot of tips and recommendations for activities and food places. He was also available to answer our questions and constantly checked if everything was to our liking.

Loved our stay here. It's beside the Sankat Mochan temple and near to assi ghat. The host is really sweet and the property is a very well maintatined and homely vibe
We stayed for one night. The host was very helpful, the rooms were clean, nothing left to be desired. Host also shared locations to check out nearby and was available for any questions too.
Nothing as such. It wasn't a long stay.
# Property Location # Behaviour of Amit Kapoor
# Noise from the road; suggestion to put/ install something at window
great, kind host, who gave plenty of useful tips, regarding places to see, food, prices etc., good WiFi, comfortable beds, possibility of washing clothes, balcony, localisation in walkable distance from Assi Ghat.
Soggiorno fantastico, la struttura ha tutto ciò di cui si ha bisogno e la disponibilità dell’host è stata incredibile, ci ha permesso di vivere l’esperienza al meglio
Everything about the property was great. Especially the host Mr Kapoor and his mom, he has guided the whole trip so beautifully. I would definitely visit again. It was comparatively in peaceful area, so if you are working remotely this is good locality. Love the aquarium too and interior was amazing like vintage era.
There was nothing such as it was really like home away from home. If anything I would neat pick then it would have been great if the bathroom of one room where I stayed was also attached like the other room, but then it’s not a big issue if you are solo traveller.
Everything; Travelling and staying for about 14 years, But would rate this stay as my best experience in Varanasi. The host Amitji, extended my stay in troubled times (Indigo Flight cancellation Phase) for another day by charging me regular price.Felt like home back. The amenities, ambience & the aura of the premise made me not feel away from home. My stay was well and good in all aspects.
Nothing. Everything is perfect. Pondered over several benchmarks to think if anything was next to dislike, but found nothing.
We had a very comfortable and convenient stay. Our host was kind and provided us with all the necessary information.

Właściciel był bardzo uprzejmy i gościnny.
Spacious room with shared kitchen and living room, good location to Assi Ghat, very kind and supportive host.

Habitación y baño muy limpios y modernos para los estándares de la India. De lo más limpio que hemos visto en la India. Bien situado al lado de uno de los templos más famosos, lo que es útil para usar de referencia con los taxis/tuktuks, en una zona con restaurantes con estándares modernos. El dueño es increiblemente amable, dispuesto a ayudar en lo que haga falta, y con muy buen Inglés. Da excelentes recomendaciones para visitar la ciudad, restaurantes, etc.

The house has a beautiful antique interior of 200 years old. It feels like going back in time. The house has two rooms, a shared living room and a fully equipped kitchen. The host, Amit, is a wonderful honest guy, he picked us up from the airport late at night while our flight was delayed. He is there whenever you need him but he knows how to respect your privacy. The location is close to the old city center.
Reservé las dos habitaciones dobles de un departamento con cocina y sala de estar, en un edificio que desde hace años pertenece a la familia Kapoor, al margen de la ciudad vieja y cerca de Assi Ghat. Habitaciones muy amplias, bien equipadas, y muy limpias. El propietario, Amit, es muy amable y servicial.
La habitación tiene un balcón que se asoma sobre un tramo con mucho tráfico, que se escucha muy claro adentro.
The owner is incredibly kind-hearted, he let us check in very early when we were tired from the night train ride and he let us leave backpacks in the facility for the whole day after the checkout. He was helpful and caring, the best host we could possibly imagine! The room was very clean and comfortable, close to many beautiful temples.
No breakast is served at the property
Little away from Kashi Vishwanath temple
Bonito alojamiento. Buena ubicación. El dueño del lugar muy servicial y amable, siempre dispuesto a ayudarte.
2日間お世話になりました。 オーナーのアミットさんがとても親切でホスピタリテイに溢れます。WhatsAppにたくさんのおすすめの情報を送ってくれて、滞在中の旅の計画を相談しながら立てました。 ハヌマーン寺院から徒歩圏の立地の良さで様々なお寺を巡れました。トゥクトゥクやバイクタクシーなどでの行き先も誤解なく伝えやすかったです。

I had a really great stay at this guest house. The owner was extremely kind and always helpful: he supported me with everything I needed, from tips to explore the city to keeping my luggage even after checkout. The location is perfect — in a quiet and peaceful area of Varanasi, easy to reach but away from the busiest traffic. The room was very spacious, clean, and comfortable. I definitely recommend this place!

Erg lieve gastheer. Vertel je alles over het gebied. Grote kamers. 2 aparte slaapkamers/badkamers.
Harde bedden. Lawaai van buiten maakt je al wakker om 5 uur in de ochtend. Geen strijkijzer aanwezig.
had a wonderful experience staying at Kapoor Sahab Homestay. The rooms were incredibly spacious, cozy, and most importantly, very safe — which made a big difference as a solo traveler. Mr. Amit Kapoor, the host, was extremely warm and supportive throughout my stay. He not only ensured all facilities were top-notch but also took the time to help me plan my itinerary and shared valuable local insights. His hospitality truly made my trip more comfortable and enjoyable. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area — whether you’re traveling solo or with family!
"Kapoor Sahab Home Stay exceeded my expectations! The family-friendly atmosphere, budget-friendly prices, and warm hospitality made my stay truly unforgettable. The owner's genuine warmth and the team's prompt, courteous service ensured a memorable experience. I wholeheartedly recommend Kapoor Sahab Home Stay to anyone seeking a comfortable and affordable haven. Five stars!"
Clean and spacious room, the location is great and the host is super kind and attentive, we felt right at home.
This accomodation exceeded our expectations!!!! It was definitly the best guest house in our trip in India!! So comfortable, so cosy!!! Amit, the Host, its such a friendly and polite guy, he has helped us with everything, before and during our stay!!! We loved absolut everything: the nice and chilly living room, the big and comfortable rooms with AC, the kitchen, the big toilette, and everything was so clean!! We can highly recommend this guest house to everybody comming to Varanasi! We had a unforgetable good experience with Amit!! 🙏🤗😍
Nothing, all was perfekt thanks to Amit!!! Will miss you my friend!! 😎🤗
I felt at home; everything was amazing — from the cleanliness, the apartment conditions, the tips — everything was perfect.
The Owner Mr. Amit Kapoor is a very polite and Nice guy, He helped me a lot

everything was good, host was very friendly
Firstly Amit ji an excellent host, it is a perfect homestay for couple, family or solo,there is a good equipped kitchen with water purifier and fridge ,a balcony, terrace everything match with expectations Superb experience 🙏🤗 I personally recommend if u want to visit Varanasi please consider this for ur perfect stay...
Had a wonderful stay at this homestay! The place was very comfortable, clean, and well-maintained — perfect for a relaxing break. What truly made the experience even better was the owner's warm and friendly behavior. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful stay with great vibes and caring hosts!
We were two members, one of us had fallen ill do we decided to stay at a distant relatives' house and the host ordered us unnecessarily to appear in the night at 10:30 pm without prior information. We kept on insisting that we were not well to stay there but then the host phoned us and sort of ordered to appear in the night at 10: 30 pm. Worst experience ever!!!! Highly not recommended !!!!
Stayed one night at Kapoor Sahab Homestay on our Delhi-Kolkata drive with my elderly parents and our pet dog. Clean, well maintained and spacious pet-friendly property with dedicated parking. Everyone loved the place and it'll be our default choice of stay whenever we're visiting Varanasi. In fact, given a choice, we would've loved to stay another day and relax but couldn't due to a paucity of time. Thank you Amit ji for being a gracious host!
Very nice authentic house with a big spacious room. Excellent value for money, and the host is extremely friendly, giving many suggestions, advice, and helping us sort out our bus.
Can be a little noisy due to traffic. However, the noise tends to die down during the night.
Host kapoor sahab's behavior was very cooperative and helpful. Very familiar environment of property.
NOTHING
It was super clean and comfortable. The homestay is very close to assi ghat. The host is super friendly and always willing to help. We arrived during holi and he offered us food because there was no restaurants open. We felt very welcome from the beginning. The shared kitchen is well equipped and super clean.
Nothing.
Great stay with Amit. He's really friendly and helpful. Near to the Assi Ghat, with lots of tuktuks available close by. Really enjoyed my stay here.
The behaviour & hospitality of Kapoor Sir & his mother was lovely, we feel there as like our home.If I plan for Varanashi next time,this property will be my first choice. I love this place. Radhe Radhe🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️
Room size, other facilities, proper kitchen setup,location, car parking passage etc was lovely at a reasonable price👍👍👍👍❤️
Hospitality
Family run place cozy, Parking is on the main road is a challenge but owners help you park at a safe place but at a distance
Mosquitoes But they are there naturally and they did provide us with Repellents
Kapoor's homestay was indeed a pleasant experience. Mr. Amit and his family were extremely warm and welcoming and a delight to talk to. Very clean, hygienic, prime location!
Amit ji is an excellent host, he sent us many recommendations for places in Varanasi. His home was very comfortable and most importantly, very clean...probably one of the cleanest places we have stayed in all of India. The bed was comfortable and the room had all we needed for a comfortable stay.The home also had a well-equipped kitchen with filtered water and anything we needed to make tea or to make something to eat. Amit ji is very nice and is always there to help with anything you might need. We enjoyed our stay at his home. The only small point is that the bedroom is next to the main road so there is some noise from the cars during the day but it's fine at night. We wish we had known about his home earlier because we would have wished to stay there longer. We will definitely stay at his home when we go back to Varanasi!
Very good home stay
Service for tea and breakfast is not available
Amazing stay during Mahakumbh Mela . Amit jee had taken care of us like a family, guided us about travel, food, etc. . Home stay premises was well maintained. I am giving my real experience review after my stay . Sudipta Prasad from Odisha .
Great area to stay, the. homestay owner couldn't do enough to help us and was available via WhatsApp for ideas and questions. He helped us arrange a boat trip and find good food. We booked 2 rooms and had the whole apartment to ourselves. There was a wedding nearby and the guests invited us to join in. Loved our stay
Excellent location near many temples and walking distance to Assisi Ghat. Several nice restaurants very nearby and a grocery store. Lovely terrace and smart TV. Use of kitchen and clothes line was great. Host provided some breakfast food and responded to text messages within a few hours at most.
Bed was extra firm. Opened doors and windows let in mosquitos at night. We had a long stay and hospitality waned after the first few days.
Property is well maintained by the owner Mr. Ami Kapoor. He is a very good host and the property feels like home for a nice and chill trip in Varanasi.
Nothing
I went with my family to this property, we had an amazing experience. The host , Amit ji was so kind and very cooperative .. I totally recommend.
The most recommended, I had stayed many times in Varanasi but it was the most pleasant stay I would say. Here it feels like Home...
None
From the moment we reached the location Amit ji (owner) was present to greet and guide us even though it was peak season during the Mahakumbh, he along with his family have a great warm behavior towards their guests. All the photos and amenities mentioned are genuine and beautifull, it is their own home converted into home stay. Best part about this is the pricing which is pretty affordable provided the quality of rooms and the location is pretty lavish. It is a must visit for all travelling to Varanasi and I personally am looking to stay here again someday as the property and the owner Amit Sir have become close to heart in just a few days time😊❤. Definitely deserves a 10/10 and nothing less.Thank you Amit Sir
It was comfortable and area was really nice.
it felt like we were at home
Kapoor’s Home Stay It is one of the best home stay near to Aasi Ghat within 1.5km and walkable to Sankat Mochan Hanuman Temple. Coming to Host Mr. Amit Kapoor, who received with such a warmth gesture, felt very comfortable home like, and the rooms and washrooms are well maintained and best equipped on budget. He Guided us through out our three days stay at Varanasi, as where to eat, how to reach out any pilgrim..etc, and what ways of transportation is best depending on rush hours and even guide us by sharing location of each and every places and was been available helping us. And last but not least his Father’s 3rd generational Business which deals with Authentic manufacturing of the famous Banarasi saree which is few meters away from Chowk Thana, where his father received us with such a warmth gesture and showed us all kinds of manufactured Original and Pure Silk Sarees of different quality & price with patience. So far I would rate more than 5 Star because of his humble nature.
Comfort, location, well ventilated and convenience
Scope to improve the cleanliness
Nestled in the heart of the city, this homestay allowed us to conveniently explore the vibrant streets of Varanasi. Being located centrally we could easily walk down to all the near by sight seeing places like Sankat Mochan Hanuman, assi ghat, & Durga kund. Amitji our gracious host went beyond to make our stay comfortable. He reached out to usto guide us about booking for Alakhnanda cruise & attending Mangla aarti. His Warmth & Humility stood out, as he genuinely invested in making our visit memorable. The room was spacious, cleaned & well maintained. Despite having Indian style toilet, he kindly made adjustments for us to suit our needs, displaying his genuine hospitality. The Highlight of our stay was visiting their family shop business to buy Banarasi sarees where Amitji s' father showcased an exquisite collection of sarees. With his expertise he introduced us to the rich variety & heritage behind each saree & the pieces we choose were delivered seamless via courier. We are deeply grateful for the memories created & look forward to visiting again.
The Indian style toilet could be replaced with western style in one room.
The host was very friendly and helpful. Clean rooms and in a good central location. Good wifi Would recommend
Check out time 10am, found this early compared to other homestays we have stayed in India which have been 12pm but wasnt a problem. Very noisy - was woken up all mornings at 6:30am by beeping from outside.
We were warmly welcomed. Clean, comfortable home. Great recommendations what to do and where to go locally. Thanks for having us.
Mattress was too firm for our liking.
The owner is very kind and gives a lot of advice. It's well situated and transportation is easy to find. The room is big with air conditionning. You also have access to a kitchen.
Nothing.
Mr. Kapoor is the kindest host, a wonderful person who welcomed us into his house as dear guests, introduced us to his family, helped us in every way and created a wonderful, caring and delicate support for us.. His house is cozy, tastefully furnished and it's easy to relax in it and enjoy your stay.. The bed is big and comfortable and there is always hot water.. The room we stayed in was spacious and clean with plenty of space for our luggage.. The location is very convenient and there is a shop and restaurants nearby as well as the impressive Hanuman’s temple . Because of this person we consulted with and enjoyed talking to, as well as because of his calm, a nice home that we felt like our own - we will return right there again and connect the interesting and strong Varanasi with more humanity, warmth and coziness! We had a great time and recommend this home heartily and sincerely! Thank you :)
Amit was a wonderful host. Super accommodating, friendly, and understandable when we didn't have cash to pay on arrival. No request was ever too much! The homestay was pristine and incredibly clean. The toilet was the best we've used in India. The room was spacious with a big TV. We had access to a fridge and cooking facilities, and Amit also left bottled and filtered water which he replenished every day. Thank you Amit!
Although we had a lock on the inside of our room, the homestay wasn't locked for the night. It felt like it was set back in a safe location, but we would've preferred both our room and the homestay to be locked.
Good Room Cleanliness and a comfortable bed with a smoking balcony.
The Ground Floor occupants feeds a biter dog every night, me and my mom witnessed. That dog has bit me, It attcked my mom also. No service in a name of a good homestay. Only you shall get a smiling face of Mr. Kapoor. No Western toilets, Given potty stool instead. me and my mom both got operated knee. Born Cheater.
The property is at a nice location ( very close to BHU university, markets in close proximity ) nd it was very clean and well maintained. The host and the staff were very friendly and they were very helping and guiding. Its truely a home away from home. Totally worth it.
10/10 !!! I had the pleasure of staying at the wonderful Kapoor's home stay, and it exceeded all my expectations! The place was serene, calm, and incredibly spacious - perfect for relaxation. The host Mr Amit Kapoor is an absolute polite, courteous, and always available to ensure my comfort. Their warm hospitality made me feel right at home. The amenities are good, and the location is ideal for exploring the BHU surrounding area. (100 meters from Sankat Mochan). I highly recommend this home stay to anyone seeking a peaceful retreat. Thank you to the amazing host Mr. Amit Kapoor for creating such a wonderful experience!
Our train was delayed and we reached later at night but the host was very helpful and made sure we had a smooth checkin. The place is serene and in a nice location. It lives up to its name
Awesome
Perfect location host is very helpful neat and clean rooms comfortable stay.
Amit treats all his Guests like close friends and has a true passion for hospitality. He loves his city and it really shows. Helping us plan our days in a busy city was a life saver! We wish we had been more organised and could have stayed longer.

Even provide extra bedding in case for extra persons with nominal charges.Book it without any doubt..suitable for family, couple, group of friends.. Later i got to know even pets are allowed here! Wow..🐈 All pictures on site are real..i will always choose to stay here only whenever in varanasi and will recommend all my friends and relatives too!
