Brijrama Palace, Varanasi – Where Heritage Meets Timeless Serenity
Rising gracefully above the sacred Ganges at Darbhanga Ghat, Brijrama Palace is more than just a luxury hotel — it is a poetic experience that lets you live the soul of ancient Varanasi.
Originally built in 1812 as a royal house by the then Maharaja of Darbhanga, this sandstone marvel is one of the oldest structures along the ghats. With its elegant Maratha-style architecture, vintage elevators (among the first installed in India), intricate hand-painted ceilings, and old-world charm, Brijrama Palace captures the golden essence of India’s spiritual and royal past.
A Stay Unlike Any Other
Imagine waking up to the soothing sounds of temple bells and the sight of boats gliding gently across the Ganges. From the moment you step into Brijrama Palace (accessible only by boat), you are transported into a different world — where time slows down, and every detail whispers stories of the past.
Each room, steeped in royal ambiance, offers luxurious comfort paired with panoramic views of the river or the heritage city. Whether it’s the Vaaraan suite or the more intimate Nadirah room, every corner is curated to create a serene escape.
Cultural Touches & Dining
What makes Brijrama truly magical are its cultural touches — live Indian classical music in the evenings, traditional tea ceremonies, and even yoga sessions by the river. The in-house restaurant, Darbhanga, offers exquisite Banarasi and pan-Indian cuisine, served in a regal setting with hand-carved details and river views.
Perfectly Placed on the Ghats
Located on Darbhanga Ghat, the palace gives you front-row access to the famed Ganga Aarti at Dashashwamedh Ghat, the buzzing markets of Godowlia, and the tranquil boat rides during sunrise. The best of Varanasi is literally at your doorstep — without sacrificing peace and luxury.
