No hot water to shower.
We could not get hot water,to shower. When called the front desk he said , they will turn the machine on, and hot water will be available in 10 min. After 10 min when I called , the front desk help said he cannot tell me when the hot water will be available. After 20 min offered to bring hot water in a bucket, if needed. In short had to shower in cold water. We were a family of 8, so all of us had to shower in cold water. The oldest member was 72 yrs old. Very upsetting after paying this kind of money.

Staff at Grand Dolphin were very helpful and courteous, starting from the front desk management to the dining staff. Laksmi from the reservation team made my car bookings to Ayodhya, Boat Tour for Ganga Aarati and Airport pick up. Prices were reasonable and she was very responsive to my requests. I would highly recommend the hotel to anyone travelling to Varanasi.
