Safarnama Varanasi is where it started — antique, intimate, five minutes from the ghats. Kaas is the newer, quieter sibling, with rooms built for longer stays.
The original house, filled with hand-painted furniture and antique finds, five minutes on foot from Dashashwamedh Ghat and the Kashi Vishwanath Temple. Mornings start with breakfast in the courtyard; evenings end with the sound of temple bells drifting in.
Check availabilitySet in the quieter, posher end of the city, Kaas trades antique for contemporary — cane furniture, warm wood, and rooms built around natural light. Four room types, each a little different, all built for travellers who want calm without losing character.
Check availabilityEvery room at Kaas shares the same materials and calm — cane, dark wood, warm brass fittings — but each has its own layout and light.
A generous double bed, cane armchairs, and a teal-tiled bathroom — the most requested room at Kaas.
Check availabilityTwo dark-wood beds side by side, built for friends or siblings travelling together without sharing a bed.
Check availabilityThe same comfortable double, with direct access to a private patio — good for slower mornings with a coffee outside.
Check availabilityThe brightest room in the house, framed by a tall arched window that fills the room with morning light.
