Brijrama Palace
The hospitality of a former palace on Varanasi's riverbanks
Brijrama Palace is an emerging, unique experience that holds a lot of promise for travellers seeking unique and authentic experiences in Varanasi, especially for those looking for something more lavish on the riverside ghats. A uniformed team in a canopied boat welcome guests with a cool, local drink – setting the tone for Varanasi hospitality. The 3 storeyed property can be accessed by an elevator – a one-of-its-kind mechanism installed in a palace turret. The hotel suites are comfortable, well-furnished, with gold-leaf interiors and offer a great view of the bustling ghats. The dining experience at Brijrama Palace, albeit without alcohol and meat, is exemplary – very innovative and with a great variety.
