Provider-sourced guest reviews.
Welcome to Mangalmay Kashi, a peaceful and comfortable stay in the heart of Varanasi. Our property offers a warm, homely atmosphere where guests can relax and experience the spiritual charm of Kashi. Located close to the famous Kashi Vishwanath Temple and the ghats, Mangalmay Kashi is a convenient choice for guests who want to explore the ancient city, visit temples, experience the Ganga Aarti, and discover the culture and traditions of Banaras.
Hospitality was great, rooms were near. Harshit was great and was very helpful.
Frequent power cut and sometimes service was a bit slow
We liked the staff at the hotel especially Harshit. He tool care of us like his own family and truly stood upto what Varanasi people are known for- their kindness and helpful nature. Hotel also offered a complimentary Temple visits which were very exclusive and hidden gems of Varanasi.
1. Rooms were not available when we reached hotel at 3 2. Wifi was not working
- The stay was very comfortable and pleasant. - Staff were cooperative, courteous, and helpful throughout. - Pricing was reasonable and offered good value.
Areas for improvement: - Cleanliness near the entrance should be better maintained. - Room cleaning should be done more thoroughly and consistently. - Linen should be changed every day to ensure freshness and hygiene.
自分の友人が体調を崩した際にとても優しく助けてくれました。 そのおかげでとても良い旅になりました。彼らはとても優しく接してくれて、あなたの家のように使っていいよと言ってくれました。 あなたの良い旅をサポートしてくれる最高の施設です。
立地が少し裏路地にあります。
The property is like an AirBnB but with hotel facilities. The host was fantastic and couldn’t do more to help us. They also included a night time temple tour that was great.
The location is hard to find but the host arranged the transport for us other than that it was great
L’accueil était très chaleureux, le personnel de l’hôtel est vraiment sympathique et toujours souriant, la chambre est pas mal d’une propreté acceptable. Ils vous proposent même d’autres services comme le transport où vous voulez aller, à votre arrivée ils vous montreront tout les endroits à faire et si vous êtes sortis tout seuls ils vous envoient de temps en temps un message sur wtsp pour voir si tout est ok et si t’as besoin d’une aide. Ils acceptent que paiement par espèces, n’oubliez pas de faire un retrait d’argent avant d’arriver. Je recommande
L’emplacement est dans l’ancienne ville de Varanasi , cela peut vous choquer au début si vous êtes arrivés à L’inde pour la première fois
I had an amazing time in Magalmay. Kuldeep was so supportive in helping me get around and providing me with everything I needed. I could therefore experience Varanasi on a deeper level. I left with gratitude the beautiful place and will definitely come back.
Everything’s was good
I had a great experience staying at this hotel. The staff(kuldeep and harisath) were incredibly kind and showed excellent hospitality throughout our stay. The room is so clean and comfortable. Highly recommend one.
Peaceful stay!! Clean rooms with comfortable stay....every guidance was provided by them. Very very helpful staff harshit. Feels like home. I would definitely suggest everyone to stay here.
The host, Kuldeep, was very friendly. He made sure I was comfortable, always offered water, food, and even helped book tours. The property is a bit of a walk from the main ghats, but it makes for a real Indian experience. Lots of tuk tuks close by if you don't want to walk. Would recommend.
My room was on the ground floor and was a bit noisy. But was quiet enough to sleep at night.
Everything clean and comfortable.
Location not is good.
The good customer care, they have good manners and look at you as a family member. Kuldeep the owner is a very good and humble person. He make everything possible for you. He got good networking and organised everything and make your stay easy and safe. They are very good family, his parent also was very good, they spend time talking to you and sharing ideas and have tea with them. I would highly recommend anyone to visit Varanadi to book the MANGALMAY STAY.
Nothing, all good
The staff went above and beyond to make me feel safe and cared for. They provided services like meals and arranging boat tours, which was particularly appreciated because of the less touristy location. The place was incredibly clean as well.
There was a high window in my room that ket a lot of light in from the hallway and it was quite noisy until after midnight, making it hard to sleep. My television also didn’t work outside of low resolution YouTube, which was a shame.
We are from Singapore , room was clean & spotless, very convenient to visit Vishvanath Mahadev temple, Kalbhairav temple , central of Varnasi.Owner of the hotel Kuldeep Yadav helped us to arrange for Prayangraj trip, took care of us. Showed us many hidden temples at Varnasi.His service is amazing. Not only to us we noticed to all guest he do such a friendly assistance. Staff were incredibly friendly.I highly recommend this hotel for all 10/10
Friendly people , would like to mention Harshit, Deepak , Chottu helped us to get tuktuk , even they showed us the way to temples. I felt Varnasi is my second home. I will recommend foreigners to visit this hotel.
This is an exceptional homestay. The property is set on a small square which is charming and is in a good location. The staff were so helpful and generous; Kuldeep arranged a few guided tours for us and helped us with taxis, transfers and Tuk-Tuks. The room was lovely and the bed very comfortable. It was quiet at night and we slept very well.
We couldn't find the place very easily, as the taxi driver didn't have a clue where it was, but Kuldeep sent someone to rescue us so problem solved!
Communication with the host was at high end whenever we need he is able to communicate. And the staff are friendly. But the location is far away need to walk through streets. And with kids it’s tough. Better if they provide heaters in rooms in winter months. They even arrange you with boat rides and will let you know anything you need in varanasi and surroundings. We are happy to visit again but really need to change the location please.
Location.
Bad for booking don't book mangalmay kashi
The photo of the room was fake on listing page
Everything was great, especially the warmth and helpfulness of Mr. Kuldeep and his employees. I was helped in all matters, be it arranging a city guide (Ajit was great) or organizing a visit to the Kumbh Mela (also great). My room was simple but clean and the price was absolutely right. In the end all I have to say is: THANK YOU
Excellent location, personnel friendly and helpful
Too much noise in the mornings and in the evenings, mostly because of other guests
Absolutely amazing. Everybody did their best to make my stay as beautiful as possible. Kuldeep is a magician and he helped me more than words. Thank you from my heart 🙏
Kuldeep and Harshit were extremely welcoming and friendly along with being professional too. We had trip on the Ganges arranged by Kuldeep and a trip to very special ceremony late one evening too.
Nothing
Room was good, bed like at home. Area perfect, relatively quiet, there is no direct street for cars! Owner and staff very helpful, thanks
First room next to the reception very noisy, noise from people infront of reception and my door until 12.
Even though we booked the room well in advance, because of the delay in flight , we reached the premises early in the night,the person in charge refused to give us the room.But he was kind enough to arrange alternate accomadation.
What is the logic behind advance booking,really I don’t understand.
Friendly staff, comfortable stay. In short home away from home
The rooms were clean and spacious, the host is super nice and welcoming, the breakfast is good and abundant. The parati were great! They brought us around for a little tour and an evening cerimony in no-turistic places, and that was great as well.
The square outside the hotel is really dirty, above other places in India. No windows in the room (as almost everywhere in India). The entrance of the structure can be improved.
Had an amazing stay here. The host is really friendly and went out of his way to make my stay enjoyable, offering complimentary boat tours and lunch of his rooftop watching the kites for Makar Sankranti.
One improvement would be the room I was in ‘peace’ had a strange internal window which let it a lot of noise. The host was very receptive to my comments on this whole I was there
Its a new property so cleanliness was not a problem. It was very clean. very friendly staff and owner.. Rooms were well lit and hot water etc was all good. Bed was also very comfortable. Owner arranged for an auto from the railway station .
Location is pathetic. too too dirty outside there was no breakfast or morning tea. Access to the property was horrible. There were so many cows and cow dung. Even cycle rickshaws refuse to come there.. If you need to go anywhere walk up through the cow dung laden streets and get some rickshaw. It is no where close to the ghats as it is titled. If u hire a cab for the airport, be prepared to lug you luggage and walk through the narrow dirty streets to get to the cab as no transport comes to this property.
Kuldeep is the best host. I didnt feel like i‘ve booked this accommodation on booking, it was like meeting a friend! From first moment he made sure we are comfortable and happy. He is very helpful, so kind and super funny #kfc hahaa He even took me and 3 of my friends to his friends wedding!!! What a memorable experience!! Thank you so much. The place has all the basics for a stay in Varanasi. Hot shower worked well and main attractions are walkable distance.
All was good
Great location, cute little place with nice rooms and a very charming owner. He had a blast, felt very welcome and had a great time with the staff there.
Not easily accessible. Quite noisy but Mr Kuldeep & dear Harshit make it a must to make your stay easy. Once you are there Mr Kuldeep takes care of everything. Waking up at 3.30 am to visit Kashi Vishwanath temple. Feeling blessed to do sparsh of the shivling.
The surrounding was not well kept. Thrash was scattered everywhere. Find a good shop & do shopping on your own.
I will recommend this place to anyone and everyone who wants to go to VARANASI (INDIA) . Jio is by far the perfect hosts for anyone who comes there ,and he will make sure to make your stay as convenient and delightful. He invited all his guests to his brother's wedding .If you are a tourist, don't go to India. If you are a traveler, it is one of the most beautiful experiences with wonderful people.
Almost all the streets in India smell a Cows feces..The congestion of traffic, but they are the best drivers in the world.
Staff were welcoming and quite helpful.
Location plus a herd of cows outside the entrance to hotel. No structure around breakfast timing and they had to go and get bread when we did ask for something! More of a very relaxed homestay rather than a hotel 🥲
Here’s a draft for your review: I recently stayed at a wonderful homestay in Varanasi, and it was an experience I will cherish for a lifetime. From the moment I arrived, I felt the warmth and hospitality of the hosts, making it feel less like a stay and more like a home away from home. The accommodations were comfortable, clean, and thoughtfully arranged to ensure a relaxing experience. What truly stood out was the attention to detail and the personal touch in everything — from the delicious meal what we enjoyed in owners brother’s marriage, that was cherry on cake, to the engaging conversations about Varanasi’s culture and history. The location was perfect, allowing me to explore the city easily while also offering a peaceful retreat after the vibrant energy of the ghats and temples. The hosts went above and beyond to help with local tips, arranging transport, and sharing insights that only a local would know. This trip to Varanasi was truly memorable, and a big part of that was because of this homestay. If you’re looking for an authentic, homely, and unforgettable experience in this magical city, I cannot recommend it enough! Let me know if you’d like any tweaks or additions!
We loved the hospitality of Kuldeep ji. He is a genuine person who takes care of you as a family member. He even invited us to his brother’s wedding where we could experience the vibrant culture people and great food of Kashi. Property is very central and near important ghats. The boat ride arranged by hotel was very private with just 4 of us, and the ganga Arti we witnessed was mesmerising, could have had a better view if timed better to reach the spot before time. We highly recommend Kuldeep ji and his property for your Varanasi stay, if you want to experience real Kashi.
Our room was located in such a way that we had to deal with bathroom lights coming from other rooms on ground and first floor. It disturbed our sleep to some extent. Please can you look into this? I am sure you will Kuldeep ji. He very kindly asked us to change the room, but we did not want to move all our stuff again to another room.
The property is very clean and the bed was super comfortable. The location was great and everyone has been so nice and kind. The owner and his assistant made the stay so special, they even took us to a ceremony in one local temple and shared with us their private time. Truly amazing and I would definitely recommend it to everyone who is interested in feeling the real Indian welcoming culture!
Team and close relationship
All was ok
I highly reccomend this place The manager, Kuldeep is very friendly and will go to the extra mile for your requests! Food is excellent and very quick. Special mention to Harseth who is also very kind and friendly and knows the little streets and hidden corners of Varanasi!
We had an amazing time in Varanasi. Kuldeep organised delicious breakfasts for us and shared so many yummy Indian treats with us. We were also able to join the Diwali festivities and let off fireworks from the rooftop. He showed us around the city himself and always made sure we had everything we needed during the stay. Would come here again for sure!
We enjoyed our stay really much. We were here during Diwali for two nights and Kuldeep (owner) and staff, took us to many beautiful places in this impressive city. Nothing is too much for him. I wanted to get a SIM-card and he brought me to the shop with his scooter. If you needed anything else, ask Kuldeep and he arranges it for you instantly. Kuldeep, thank you so much for the lovely stay and your hospitality!
Kuldeep, the owner, is very kind & super helpful! He even invited us on a free boat tour & dinner, which was super kind! Rooms are comfortable & clean.
The property is located 20-30 min walk from major tourist area
Lovely little family hotel, great authentic food, exceptional service
Nothing
We had a great stay in Varanasi at Mangalmay Kashi. The room was comfortable and calm during the night due to the location. The owner, Kuldeep, was very hospitable, friendly and helpful. He helped us with many plannings concerning our stay, such as recommending restaurants, booking a boat tour and an awesome heritage city walk (ask him for this activity, 100 % would recommend). He even let us stay longer in our room, because it was not booked the next day and our train left late in the evening. Many thanks and all the best!
The owner Kuldeep really made you feel like an esteemed guest. The stay was very good and I’ll recommend Mangalmay to all my friends who would like to visit Varanasi.
I am sure this was the best hospitality offered in entire Banaras.. I am truly fortunate to have my stay booked here .. the host Mr Kuldeep Yadav had not left any stone unturned in provided the services beyond all the expectations. The hotel is very near to all the major attractions in Banaras be Kal Bhairav Temple(which is in walking distance) or Kashi Vishwanath temple.. amazing facilities with all premium amenities are provided here .. I didn’t feel like I was in a hotel.. it was a second home .. hats off to each and every staff over there.. thank you once again, Mr. Kuldeep! I can’t wait to visit again 🫡
I wish I could stay there for longer 😭
Great hygiene, proactive staff, friendly host!
Nothing here! :)
The hotel is new and the rooms are very nice. It is very close to the old town, easy walking distance. The manager Kuldeep is an amazing man, he was so nice and very generous with his time. Nothing, I mean nothing was an issue for him. A very likeable chap. We were luck enough to have his staff show us sites a visitor would not normally see. We had a couple of minor things with the room that needed attending to and it just got done, no fuss. That is what you need.
That we had to leave!!!!!
I really adored the manager (Kuldeep is the man!) and how spacious and clean the rooms were. Kuldeep really goes out of his way to meet your expectations and fulfill any of the wishes you can have. We even had a great ride to little known forbis Westerners but important temples and ate some delicious local food.
A little bit far from the river
This hotel feels like home! The owner is genuinely welcoming and will provide anything a guest might need. Also, this property is brand new and really comfortable. I must say I also appreciated the visual esthetics of the interior design as well. Excellent experience for a fare price.

I would definitely recommend it to anyone coming to spend a few days in Varanasi. The hotel opened a month ago and is already well established. The rooms are very clean, spacious and comfortable. The welcome is warm and smiling and the staff are not oppressive at all. On request, they can offer a number of services, such as a guide to visit the city, accompaniment to a ghat ceremony, meal delivery and taxi bookings. Our host, Kuldeep, took great care of us as my girlfriend was ill. He offered to fetch some medicine from the pharmacy and gave her a pick-me-up. The location is ideal, away from the hustle and bustle of the Dashashwamedh ghat and Gyanvapi road. What's more, there's a tuk tuk station right next door (you have to negotiate the prices, like everywhere else). There are smaller, less busy ghats nearby, the excellent Blue Lassi address and some honest silk manufacturers.
The hospitality of the owner which made our trip at Varanasi more pleasant. He went out of the way to help his guest in getting a great experience. the room quality & services were too good
The behaviour of the staff was good.
There is nothing to dislike in the hotel.
Kuldeep (owner) was very friendly and patient. He is not at all commercial and also helped us with our darshan and all. The room was pretty good, comfortable and noise free. they are regularly cleaned.
Geyser could be installed.
I felt like a king laying on that bed and I slept like a baby. Very clean and tidy room. The price point was a great value.
Everything was exceptional.
There are no words to describe how wonderful and helpful the hotel staff are. I have never experienced such support as I have here. I highly recommend this hotel. The breakfast is delicious, and everything works perfectly. It is in a good location, where you can relax away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The Wi-Fi is very good. Don’t hesitate — just book it, and you will be satisfied!
Host and staff are really helpful and friendly, the room is spacious, location is good, close to several places of interest. Bed is confy a/c works well. The host will help you with anything you need, take you to some of the spots and tell a bit about Varanasi, he makes the stay memorable
Really nice accommodation. The hotel is brand new, rooms are neat and tidy, the breakfast is tasty (I’ve tasted an Asian and my bf vegetarian one both were good). Great value for money. And the host is amazing, hospitable and helpful.
Everything. The owner was soo kind and humble, great person. The room are top class, service is the best.
There is nothing as such to dislike.
The property is awesome, just book it out without even thinking. You will not get such property in such a less cost and in the middle of city. Everything is around and the owner was soo humble.
There is nothing that we don't like. It feels like staying in home.
Brand new hotel, amazing host , comfy beds - everything you can wish for
n/a
The place has just opened so it is spotless and clean. If you look at the price it is also a great deal. By arriving the owner makes you feel comfortabel and takes care if your needs. We like to explore Varanasi by ourselves but the hotel is happy to arrange for you. We would certainly come back to this friendly hotel.
