Welcome to 'Dhara,' our homestay at Sant Ravidas Ghat, just 500m from the iconic Assi Ghat. Perched along the river, this space offers a blend of traditional ambiance and modern comfort.
Located amidst the lanes of the ghats, 'Dhara' boasts river views and is within a short distance from all the major tourist attractions.
This room is part of a larger three-room floor (see our “Aravali” listing for the full space), so you may share the floor with other guests unless you book the entire unit.

The unit is a single room on the first floor with a separate entrance and a balcony offering a river view. The room is spacious and infused with all the modern luxuries required for a comfortable stay.
Parking facilities for a small car are available within the premises, with ample space for larger vehicles just outside.

Unique Specialty
My place is unique as it is one of the very few stays on Airbnb with a river view. Despite being so close to the bustling Assi Ghat, it offers a peaceful and serene environment.
Guest access
Common areas, such as the open terrace and the second-floor hall, are available for guest access. While we do not have a fully functional kitchen, an induction cooktop and basic utensils can be added to the room if required.
During your stay
I often travel for work, but I am always available on call for any assistance. Our caretaker, Mr. Ashok Pandit, will be happy to assist guests as needed. Ashok lives in our home, just 5 minutes away from the property. Additionally, our co-host Namrata is also available to assist if required.
Other things to note
This room is located on the first floor. A Pomeranian dog lives on the ground floor and may occasionally bark, but it is completely harmless and friendly.
Bathroom: Please note that while the room itself is quite spacious, the attached bathroom is compact and has a limited shower area. Kindly review the bathroom photos before booking to ensure it meets your expectations.
