The view from the balcony is breathtaking. The room's floor-to-ceiling windows let you enjoy it from inside as well. The hosts are friendly and helpful.

“We loved everything about our stay at SGH and the owner made it for us being so welcoming.”
The most amazing view of the sun rising over the Ganges. Right on the waterfront you got to see everything happening all day. The guy ‘Cush’ who runs this place was so lovely. He really looked after us. Gave us directions and drew a mini map to get in and out of the narrow maze like lane ways. We had dinner here 2 evenings and the food was simple but delicious and great value for money. The monkeys ran along the balcony everyday which was fun to watch (best keep your distance tho). Comfortable beds, clean tidy rooms with good A/C and fans. It really was amazing.

“Wonderful location, hotel and people.”
Excellent hotel and really friendly people. I am very glad I stayed here which was on the recommendation of a friend who stayed here years ago. Clean rooms with AC and great food to order. The pickup was really well-organised but do remember these are narrow streets and the porter has to carry your stuff. So don’t bring huge suitcases. The view from most rooms is wonderful and those with balconies are breath-taking.

“Wonderful!”
Lovely hotel in a wonderful location right next to Manikarnika Ghat and overlooking the Ganga river. It was our host Kush though who really made this stay exceptional. He was always on hand to help with anything we needed and went above and beyond to make our stay as good as it could possibly be. Would recommend to anyone!

“Good!”
Although the location of the property is fantastic, but to reach the facility on foot for good 900 meters was a bummer. I was traveling with my old parents and they really struggled to reach the guest house. Again the location, room, staff and owner everyone one is welcoming but if you are traveling with old people, or people who don't like to trek and travel on foot, it will be a spoiler.
