    Maruti Guest House

    Posted by marknew 22 March 2008

    A rather wonderful family-run guest house, two minutes from the Assi ghats.

    Clean and comfortable rooms (some with a balcony), hot water on demand and fresh home-cooked food.

    Very, very friendly staff who will make you most welcome. Dr V.N Tripathi offers (advanced and beginners) yoga, meditation and Ayurveda lessons to guests.

    I read the recommendations on the website and can vouch for them!

    Hotel Temple on the Ganges

    Posted by PhilSen 1 May 2006

    There's quite a few Hotel Temples in India, I expect: this one just off Assi Ghat is a good one. It's not luxurious, but for the price (Rs 350, about 4 quid, for a double) it's very decent and enjoys a prime location overlooking the Ganges at the southern tip of the ghats.

    The next best thing about the place is the staff, who make every effort possible for you. The food, on the other hand, owes a little too much to Maggi tomato ketchup.
