About
Hotel Hari Vilaas
Hotel Hari Vilaas sits in a calm residential pocket of Varanasi, roughly 35 km from the airport. The guest house keeps things simple: a restaurant, luggage storage, and a range of practical services including car rental, currency exchange, and paid airport shuttles. The Shri Batuk Bhairav Mandir is a 16-minute walk away.
Rooms come in Standard, Superior, and Family configurations, with the Family King Room sleeping up to four across one king and two double beds. Several reviews highlight the unusual benefit of two bathrooms and a sofa in some rooms, and the property has a terrace, in-room breakfast, and special diet menus on request.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Rooms score below other categories — The rooms category rates 7.3, lower than service (8) and staff (9), suggesting that while generally clean and comfy, they may not impress everyone.
- Value rating is moderate — At 7.5, value for money is solid but not outstanding; some travellers may find the price slightly high for the 3-star level.
- Airport is far away — The hotel is 35 km from Varanasi airport, so transfers take time and the paid shuttle is essentially a necessity.
- Check-in starts late — Check-in doesn't begin until 12:30, which might be inconvenient for early arrivals.
