VARANASI - Elevator Hotels
IF WALKING IMPAIRED, FACTORS TO CONSIDER: Varanasi City (or Sarnath). Can a car drive to the Front Entrance? Are there many steps up to the lobby. How far to the Temples, Ganges River? On the Ghats. If access is by boat only, it is a steep-stairs climb up to hotel. If access is from alleyways it can be complicated. No cars and long walk on narrow streets. ELEVATOR? RESTAURANT? Taxis and auto-rickshaws and Cycle-richshaws are available and can be a convenience. Many of the streets in Varanasi are narrow and congested. Cycle-rickshaws can be a good option. The small size of the rickshaws allows them to navigate through the narrow streets. *** These hotel options are my personal research. No guarantees.
