WORST HOTEL

The manager was rude, and we booked a reservation and our flight was canceled so we missed the first day of our stay, and we called to tell them, but when we got there the next day they canceled our room without a refund and made us pay again.

A good choice if you don't want to be in the bustle of the Ghats

The hotel is some distance from the the ghats and Ganges so this is not for you if you want to be in the main hype of activity, but a welcome retreat if you want to be away from it all at the end of the day. The staff were not unfriendly but could be more cheerful, one or two on reception gave the impression they didn't want to be bothered with anything other than booking you in and checking you out. That said, most were more than happy to direct us to nearest chemist, travel agent, etc. The rooms were spacious and clean but there was a musty smell in one of our two rooms which I think came from insufficient airing. Otherwise the level of cleanliness and comfort were of a high standard and efficiency with laundry and room service was good. Good value for money if you don't mind paying for the taxi/rickshaw ride into the main areas around the river.

Hotel Ideal Tower, Stay away

Room smelt of must and all linen was damp. Had to sleep with my clothes on. The next day they changed my room but only slightly better, linen still damp. I would recommend the Radisson or even better the Ramada which are in walking distance. I was so dissatisfied with this hotel that I forced myself to write a review which is not my thing.

Good luxury hotel for relatively cheap price

If you're looking for a comfortable place to stay near Varanasi and Sarnath, I highly recommend the Hotel Ideal Tower.

WIFIが今時有料でした。

部屋も清潔でしたし総合的には良かったのですが、唯一NOだったのはWifiが有料だったことです。 ただ、２４時間でRS１５０（ルピー）なので、日本だったらと考えるとかなり安いことには間違いないです。

レストランスタッフ、ハウスクリーニングのスタッフの対応は最高です。

仕事上、ネット環境が整っているホテルに滞在が必要でした。エクスディアの説明文にはネットの有線回線があり、１日１５０ルピーと表記されていたので予約をしました。そしていざホテルに宿泊に行くと、フロントスタッフの対応は酷いものでした。おまけに予約がまだないから少し待てと。更にネットを使いたいからLANケーブルを貸してくれと伝えると、Wi-Fiのみしかなく、ケーブルは無いとの返答。エクスペディアの説明文を見せてもそんなサービスは無いと。Wi-Fiの一日レンタルが１５０ルピーだと言われ、何だか騙された気分でした。フロントスタッフの対応は最悪ですが、レストランとハウスクリーニングのスタッフの対応はとても最高でした。
