Great staff! There was always someone at the reception. Quick and professional help with any issues and excellent guidance based on local knowledge. I was there during Holi and it was extremely helpful to have that guidance. English was not an issue either, as I know it sometimes can be. Communication was completely trouble‑free. Always helpful and very service‑minded.
Hotel staff very friendly
Helped me with many things.
Hotel itself is unfortunately located in small galli. Access is a problem.
Other than that everything is fine.
Horrível, muito sujo, funcionários mal educados, não havia água quente, não me deixaram utilizar o wifi em uma emergência. Não é como nas fotos, simplesmente não condiz com o anúncio.
I stayed at SadaShiv guest house in May for about a week. The guesthouse is top notch. It is very clean and very well taken care of by the staff. They were always available for help and the quality was 5 stars. The room was very clean and comfortable. Vishal, who was the staff, was the most exceptional member of the staff. He was very helpful at each step and everyday. I appreciate the kindness and the hospitality of everyone here. I would definitely recommend this place to friends.
Let me first clarify that I am Scandinavian travelling in India. I am used to a high standard, and are well aware that even expensive hotels in India is not on par with European/Scandinavian standard. That being said, I booked this place because I needed two things: wifi and a heater in the room. Upon arrival I was met by a very dirty room, insects on the floor, windows that didn't close, very noisy from outside and the hallway. At the price which was very low this was within my expectations, and as such acceptable. I asked for the wifi password and the remote for the heater and was given a password to a network that couldn't be detected, and was told that there was no heater included in the stay. I texted back that it's stated clearly on hotels that the room has wifi and heater. The staff member texted back that what they meant was "hot water" and not heating in the room. I spent a very cold night with open window and no heat. I probably wouldn't god back 😉
Firstly got into my room and looked nothing like pictures. Small barred window and next to no space. I told them and they moved me to a more spacious room to their credit but cleanliness was an issue at both. Covers had what looked like blood on them, ants everywhere and no toilet paper or bidet in either rooms. I also don’t understand why they don’t include air conditioning in room price as they ask an extra 700INR per day, i know it says online but this is first place I’d been to that charged it separately and so much. I’ve stayed many places in India but value for money this has got to be one of the worst. I left my stay early as I was struggling there. But the staff were nice enough and accomadating just the quality of the rooms and mostly cleanliness is the big one for me.
TERRIBLE property to stay in Varanasi !!!
Booked for 4 nights at Hotel Sada Shiv in mid-June 2025 for triple occupancy (including my aged parents) to do Darshan of Lord Shiva, visit Prayagraj, Gaya etc.
First Red Flag!!
Had to wait in the lobby for 45 mins to get the room ready on a sunny and hot afternoon.
Second Red Flag !!
Many say River Ganges isn't good with much unwanted material thrown into the water, but I would say that the River is 100,000 times cleaner than this "just-now readied" room". Cobweb all over the room, on the A/C wires and Fan inside. The bed sheets seem to have been washed 1 month ago. The child bed on the side is directly under the cobweb of the A/C wire and as soon as the Fan is turned on, the dust particles are all over the room. Bathroom wasn't cleaned and I had to request them to clean it daily. Bedsheets weren't changed unless being asked for. The big-opened trash can is right infront of our room and hasn't been emptied or cleaned in 1-2 weeks. Smells pretty bad in the corridor. Very disgusting!!
Food is not so great with any variety (for the choice that we want). As expected, I fell sick on the day 2 and my Father had to make more trips to the Medical shop than to the Temples around Varanasi. The owner provided his own feedback form and I wrote the same.
Please don't get fooled by the photos for this property on this website.
I humbly request Expedia to review this and suggest to remove this listing from here.
