Perfect Stay in the Heart of Varanasi!” I had an amazing experience at Kiarsh Residency. The location is unbeatable – just a short walk to Bhaironath Temple, Ganga Ghat (200 meters), and Vishwanath Temple (1 km). The rooms were clean, comfortable, and had all modern amenities like private kitchen, free Wi-Fi, and 24/7 CCTV security. The staff was very friendly and supportive throughout my stay. If you’re visiting Varanasi and want a peaceful yet central place to stay, I highly recommend Kiarsh Residency. Totally worth it!

    Reasonable and worth every penny! I recently had the pleasure of staying at Ajnara and I must say, it was an exceptional experience! This spacious Homestay is perfect for large families, groups of friends, or even corporate retreats. It comes with multiple bedrooms, bathrooms, and living areas. The kitchen is fully stocked, making it easy to prepare meals for a crowd. The location is also ideal, with plenty of parking space and easy access to public transportation. It's a true gem that feels like a home away from home!
