Shiva Guest House

We had a great time at the Shiva Guest House. The location is amazing, around 30 seconds from the river Ganges. It wasn't hard to find. Room was big and comfortable and shower was hot. It has its own great restaurant and the owners - two brothers, were amazingly helpful with everyhting we needed. For us it was all around a great experience.

Love this place. Perfect location near the main Ghat. Clean room with AC and 24/7 hot  water! Shiva and his brother Kailash are excellents hosts. And Shiva’s breakfast and diners are very tastfull. We loved to chat with them. Shiva is a good story teller and has good knowledge about Varanasi. Totally recommend to visit Shiva Guesthouse!

This is a really good budget option in Varanasi. The two brothers, Shiva and Kailash, were very kind to me - I walked in off the street during an exceptionally busy period and they found space for me. The location is great, just a minute away from the river, nearby to Dasaswamedh ghat. (I used to stay in Assi Ghat but forget that, post-covid, it is now busy, noisy and polluted, and I literally had to move.) This area has few vehicles and so is quieter, and close to many of the popular ghats and western style cafes, if that is what you are looking for. For a solo female this place is very safe, it is very clean, the rooms have character and it is a family home which gives it a nice feel. I would stay here again without a doubt.

Nice GH, 2 minutes away from the ghats by foot with very caring and friendly staff.

The owners are 2 brothers who will make sure your trip is perfect. They arranged pick-up from and to the airport (I need to point out the driver drove very safely) and boat trip on the river in the morning.

Room was a little old overall but ok. Toilet paper and towels were available.

Food options are available on the rooftop. I loved taking the breakfast there.

Overall a great experience. 100% recommanded.

We just had the best time in Shiva guest house! The owners, two brothers, are the kindest men. They gave us a room after check out to chill, shower and leave our bags while exploring more of Varanasi; organised us breakfast for local prices, and had a guy at hand to give us a boat tour on the Ganges very early in the morning. The rooms where perfect with comfy beds and fans/AC. The roof top terrace offers a wonderful view on the Ganges - just heed the owners warning and beware the monkeys!!
Thanks for the great time in Varanasi from Germany! 

This was one of my favourite hotels I have stayed in. 
It feels like home with cute, cosy and clean rooms.
The owners are such good people and now friends too. The food is amazing here - I ate most of my meals here during my visit. And also great people staying too, not just young backpackers. Everything about this place is perfect! 

third time in Varanasi. This is the third time we have stayed at this house. Siva and Kailash are wonderful caring people. They help, they care, they cook delicious food. Will definitely come back here next time I'm in Varanasi. I am very grateful to Siva, Kailash and siva guest house.

Really nice hostel just two minutes from mushi ghat. Strategic location.
Very clean and cozy, great energy inside and really homely air; there is also a terrace from which to watch the sunrise the stars and in less hot seasons maybe even do some yoga :)
I had a great time

Stayed there for whole two weeks. Was a fantastic stay, from beginning to end. Clean and cozy rooms, and in great (!) location which is both close to the Ghat and super easy to find (which is quite a rare find in a place like Varanasi). The whole place is run by a decent, reliable, warm and kind people that really make you feel at home. In short- highly recommended and great value for money!

Very nice guesthouse based in the center of Varanasi, but in a chilled and quiet street. We had the deluxe doublebedroom which was clean and cozy. The owners were very lovely and welcoming. I can absolutely recommend this place for an unforgettable stay in Varanasi.

Excellent Guesthouse in Varanasi

Great option in good area of Varanasi

Excellent location and staff

Lovely owners made the stay at this hostel very special

Feels like home

3rd time Benares - 3rd time in Siva guest house

Lovely cozy family guest house

Shiva Guesthouse is a great place to base yourself out of for your visit to Varanasi. We stayed for 3 night and were treated so well by the host family. They were able to check us in early and even let us use the space for a few hours after check out time while we waited for our flight. They were so welcoming, helpful, and generous and really made our stay in Varanasi the best it could be. We could see the Ganges from our room and enjoyed watching monkeys outside our window as well! We had hot water in the shower and the guesthouse was kept very clean. We will definitely be staying again during our next visit to Varanasi!

Incredible Stay in Varaniasi

We really enjoyed this guesthouse. The welcome is warm, and the rooms very clean. In the evening on the roof top, a beautiful view of the Ganges. Wonderful ! There is a washing machine for clothes, very useful during a long backpacking trip.

We highly recommend!

Ps: there is a Ghat not even 1 minute away on foot.
