Staycation to Nirvana

So we’re talking about staycation. I’ll come to that in a bit. We’ll take a little detour first. Read through. Do you think I was born to remain in one spot? Grounded like a tree? I didn’t think so either. …

Not so much costly. Polite behavior of staff. Good facility depends on your payment. Quick response of staff and management via Google business, WhatsApp etc. Walking distance from Varanasi Junction.

Very healthy atmosphere, extending days of stay is common here. Value for money remains the highlight along with lively interiors Manager Mr. Sunil Chaubey is very cooperative and is the soul of the place, from your arrival till your last day, his spirit of hospitality remains high and unmatched.

It was really a great experience. Leave all the things on #SUNIL BHAIYA. He will make your stay as your own home. Really International Travellers Hostel is a perfect stay in Varanasi.

A Peaceful Heaven in Varanasi I stayed in the International Travellers' Hostel for three days after a first night living in the midst of the old city. I was more than delighted to discover this peaceful hostel. The place is calm, clean and you will immediately feel at home here. I definitely recommend this hostel to anyone who wants to visit the chaotic city of Varanasi, while having a nice place to relax in the evening.I loved how the staff cared for me, the delicious food (and chai), and the peaceful and friendly atmosphere!
