Alka Hotel - Hotel in Domari, Varanasi - Varanasi, India

River view is very good, food is OK. There is no room service. Location is very good, but you have to walk for a considerable distance from the main road to reach it. Arrangement for boat ride and car is also available.

I am giving 2** only because of the location of the hotel and the beautiful views that we can capture from the hotel. We had boomed the room from make my trip and it was mentioned there as a balcony room. On getting the room, we got a shared balcony and the separate balcony was a side balcony without any view. Moreover, there were frequent power cuts, AC was not working properly, no towel initially and the behaviour of one of the reception staff at was very rude.

I have booked one room in this hotel at around Rs 2300/-, but there is nothing hospitality provided by hotel except given you a 8fit by 8 fit room. There are certain things which you need to consider befor book this room. 1. Its closed to ganga ghat, so you neef to walk with your baggage around 500 mtr by crowded street. 2. Room is very congested and you may be provided at 3rd floor without lift. 3. Dont except any professionalism.Just given you a room, the work has over. Pros:- Its near to ganga ghat , so u can visit the ghats and temple by walk.Location is gud.

this hotel is situated on dashashwmedh facing holy Ganga. the rooms are clean. ganga aarti and kashi vishwanath temple are at a walking distance. The food is good and not expensive. Room service is a bit slow. safe place for family stay.

This hotel service is pathetic, they even ignore your call and keep aside if they know that you are calling regarding room service. View is good but location wise too many ups and down stairs to reach and even this hotel don't have lift . Overall avoid to stay in this hotel and you can cover hardly 1 location from this hotel and get tired

After reading positive reviews on Facebook, I decided to book a room at Hotel Alka in Varanasi due to its close proximity to Kasi Vishwanath Temple and Dashashwamedh Ghat. The hotel even offered a view of the Ganges, which was impressive. However, there were a few aspects that I found rather disappointing. Firstly, the lanes leading to the hotel were incredibly dirty, which created a rather unpleasant and uninviting approach to the property. The narrowness of these lanes also made it quite challenging to maneuver luggage with wheels. Moreover, the walking distance from the point where Auto Rickshaws, Rickshaws, or Totos are permitted to ply up to the hotel is quite extensive. This could potentially pose difficulties, especially for elderly individuals, physically challenged persons, or those with health problems. In such cases, reaching the hotel without the option of hiring a wheelchair could be quite arduous. Turning to the accommodations, the rooms themselves were not as spacious as I had expected, given the prices being charged. This aspect was a bit underwhelming and affected the overall comfort of the stay. Lastly, it came as a surprise to me that there was no complimentary drinking water provided in the room. This is a basic amenity that I believe should be standard in any hotel, especially considering the rates and the overall quality of service that Hotel Alka aims to provide.

We have really enjoyed a lot from all points of view. Entry point problem is there specially for elderly people, otherwise it's really a great place to enjoy vacation to the heart's content.

Beautiful hotel..nice location located on ghat. You have to walk 500-600 meters through a narrow and rushed path to reach the hotel. Food is excellent. You name any dish they will make as per customization.
