The building was gorgeous. The restaurants were really good. So many free activities were offered that I could have spent all of my time in the hotel: sunrise yoga classes, evening classical dance performances, a boat to the sunset Ganga article, etc. The service was super attentive.
United States of AmericaPerfectly situated by the Ganges, perfectly renovated Palace with charming interior décor. The rooms are fully equipped and the staff were ready to go out of their ways to assist you. The complimentary activities kept us very busy. It was an incredible experience to stay by the Ganges. Yes we all did the boat tour, but to be able to observe all the activities at the Ganges from the atop, to be able to see the local kids kite fighting on the rooftops, is quite something else.
ChinaBeautiful, beautiful, exotic property with outstanding customer service and a very nice spa

TurkeyIt’s my second time at the BrijRama amazing palace , starting from the pickup airport the staff make you feel like a king, the food is wonderful, all the experience is unforgettable!!!!
IsraelThe location of the hotel was fabulous - right on the river bank of the Ganges. The hotel has their own boat to visit the evening ceremony which was a highlight of the trip! The historic palace has been renovated beautifully with nice vegetarian restaurants and even dancing in the internal courtyard every night. Fabulous stay.
Hong KongThis is a magical location--a historic building beautifully modernized, with wonderfully friendly and helpful staff. There are opportunities for tours in and around Varanasi, including Sarnath, and these are well worth taking. There is enchanting music and dance in the hotel. Access is by boat along the Ganges. The vegetarian restaurant is great. Just generally, this hotel is incomparable.

It's a 218 years old palace, was built during the 18th century by Royal house of Nagpur with Maratha influence and is considered amongst the oldest structures in Varanasi. In the early 20th century this palace was acquired by The Maharaja of Darbhanga and was christened as the famous "Darbhanga Mahal". A few decades ago it came into possession of one of the oldest and influential families of Varanasi and was named as "BrijRama Palace" after the legendary entity, the late Shri Brij Pal Das ji (who was also once the mayor of Varanasi) and his wife, the late Shrimati Rama Devi. Constructed out of solid sandstone from Chunar with beautifully carved Verandha's and Pillars, the BrijRama palace is now a luxurious destination for guest from around the world. Overlooking the Ganges river and surrounded by vibrant ghats, this palace is just a stone's throw from the famous Dasashwamedh Ghat, site of the famous Annual Ganga Aarti. It took over 17 years to renovate this palace. A truly unforgettable experience at BrijRama Palace starts with a bajra ride(a classical Indian wooden boat) from Mahishasura ghat to reach the palace.
