I'm Australian and visited during the low season and had the most incredible stay — it honestly felt like this family had a magic wand hidden somewhere. Every little problem I brought with me, they solved with such kindness and ease. From helping me get tailored clothes made, to fixing the screen on my phone, to preparing the most delicious meals, to even arranging a local traveler to accompany me to the ghats — they thought of everything. Mohit’s wife cooks the most amazing food, with a huge variety of delicious home-style Indian dishes. I probably ate 70% of my meals here, and every bite was a treat! As a solo woman traveler, I felt completely safe and cared for. When I ran into trouble with a bad Uber driver, they stepped in right away and sorted it out without hesitation. Whatever was on my to-do list, they somehow made it happen. Their home is full of warmth, laughter, and the sweetest little girls you’ll instantly fall in love with. Mohit’s mother also carries such wisdom and clarity in her words that, even when she spoke in Hindi, I found myself understanding. They’re wonderfully creative too — they hand painted uplifting murals to brighten the walls, from a cute panda to a serene Buddha, and they’ve even made cozy seats out of recycled tyre wheels. In the evenings, the open terrace is the perfect place to sit, while doves that have been nesting there for over five years coo gently in the background. The family also runs a small shop, so snacks and drinks are always within easy reach. Compared to the bustle of the city, this place is peaceful and quiet, yet still just a short walk from the Buddhist temples in Sarnath. The rooms are comfortable, with options to suit everyone — from dorms to single rooms and larger family spaces. Truly, this is the BEST place I have ever stayed. If you’re looking for safety, comfort, care, and unforgettable hospitality, look no further — you’ll find it here.

This being our 1st trip to Varanasi and what a pleasant surprise to find such a beautiful resort with such friendly and caring host and staff. The owner was wonderful and the place is taken care of with so much of love and attention to detail. The garden was beautiful and was set in a very serene environment. With the hustle and bustle of Varanasi it was always great to come back to the peace and tranquility. 10/10 for this place.

Everything; Travelling and staying for about 14 years, But would rate this stay as my best experience in Varanasi. The host Amitji, extended my stay in troubled times (Indigo Flight cancellation Phase) for another day by charging me regular price.Felt like home back. The amenities, ambience & the aura of the premise made me not feel away from home. My stay was well and good in all aspects.

Sona is really a wonderful host! She was incredibly warm and friendly and answered any questions we had. The room was the cleanest we had in India so far and the location is right near the Assi Ghat. Her cooking is also amazing and she even gives cooking classes! We can highly recommend staying with her :)

Superb - What previous guests thought, 18 reviews
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!
