About

Fabhotel East View - Varanasi

Fabhotel East View sits on the edge of the Ganges in the Mohalla Siddheshwari neighbourhood, putting the river and the old city within easy reach.

Guest rooms are simple and clean, with flat-screen TVs, tea and coffee facilities, and free Wi-Fi throughout.

The hotel's real draw is its position: reviews consistently mention the river view, the proximity to Kashi Vishwanath temple and the famous ghats, and the ease of exploring the city on foot.
