Definitely the best located hotel in the entire Varanasi. The facilities were extraordinary and the outdoor terrace breakfast with views at the Ganges, it will most probably remain as a lifetime memory for ever.

Everything went well. The welcome was great, the food was great (they accommodated dietary restrictions), the rooms were clean with all the luxury amenities. They gave us rooms near each other and also helped make the birthday celebration for my mom very special.

An oasis of calm in a very busy city. Staff is truly exceptional, especially the luggage handlers and dining room staff Anlipam and Sunil Yoseu. If you like colonial-era feeling hotels with the gentle charm of bygone years, then you should consider Clark’s Varanasi. We’re extremely happy we did.

    Clean, comfortable hotel. Very friendly staff. Excellent tasty food and a wide selection.. What else do we need?! We almost booked in a 5 star hotel elsewhere, but unfortunately they didn't have walk-in shower, which we were looking for elderly parents. I would rate Madin as 5 stars!! Well done, staff and management 😁
