  • What is the cost of a hostel in Varanasi?

    On average, it’s $28/night for a hostel in Varanasi, though $18/night or less would be considered a good deal. The least expensive hostel our users have found recently was for $6/night in Varanasi. Try to avoid booking your hostel in September (the most expensive month). Booking in January (the cheapest month) could save you money.

  • Should I stay in a Varanasi hostel?

    Hostels in Varanasi tend to have a more active social scene than hotels, so they’re perfect for outgoing travellers looking to meet other people. Varanasi hostels are, on average, cheaper than other stays in the city due to their dorm-style sleeping quarters. However, this means you can spend your money elsewhere such as on local tours and events.
