Aashray Homestay - Exclusive Home Hospitality

Kapurs are pleased to share their new offering, The Pearl Room, made up of the very best that the homestay has to offer. Please feel free to read more reviews on Trip Advisor by the name Aashray, Varanasi. The space Arguably world’s finest marble, Makrana (Sang e Marmar, said to have been used in the Taj Mahal) as the ground you walk on, silver polished fittings you hold, antique furniture designs, are some choices made to bring back the feel of a life that once was. A clear view of the auspicious Neem Tree in the community garden and lots of natural light, keep you connected with the world outside. And you can always step into the balcony right outside while you absorb the local flavours over a morning tea or evening coffee. With an enviable location in the heart of the city and yet not crowded or noisy, Aashray is your cosy cacoon in the religious capital of India. It's in a colony, but the main road linking the entire city is less than 100 meters away. Railway or bus station, temples, Ghats, shopping centers, mall, craft centers, restaurants, boats, hospitals and eatables, are all available within the radius of three kilometers of the house. Besides the two guestrooms already listed as the 'Most Loved Homestay', this Pearl room is the new addition to our Guestrooms. The guestrooms come with the following amenities: * Hot and cold water * Guest supplies * Hair dryer * Tea / Coffee maker * TV with Satellite * White linen * Fridge Needless to mention, you can make any special requests you may have at the time of booking. We assure you of our very best. Your Hosts: Aashray comes with the touch of hospitality of Mrs and Mr Kapur, known to be one of the best hosts in the city. An extremely courteous couple. Mr Kapur, although a Consultant by profession is an avid reader of Hindi literature and devotes a lot of his time in keeping alive the culture and arts of Varanasi. Widely traveled across India, Mr Kapur has a rich background of knowledge of Indian culture which shines through in all his interactions. You can even request for Mr Kapur’s company on your city and Ganges tour for an enriching experience. Mrs Kapur, a designer and a post graduate in Indian Classical music, is known more for her warmth and the magic she creates with the Indian veggies (you might almost forget your meats and fish for a while!) She can thrill you with fresh, simple yet delectable dishes from her kitchen (fondly referred to as the 'Tasty-Health Food Lab' by guests) that are an intrinsic part of the Indian hospitality. Staying with the Kapurs, you get to sample the unique mix of traditional and modern values that personify the India of today. Thanks to their interest in Yoga, Indian history, local culture, cuisines and customs, they are able to share a lot in the moments that you are part of their lives. Guest access Guests have access to all the common areas of the homestay.
