Rosetta Inn

Newly opened 2026 600m to Kashi Vishwanath Temple Room service

A newly built boutique hotel on Nai Sarak, an 8-minute walk from the Kashi Vishwanath Temple — marble bathrooms, AC rooms, and a front desk that never sleeps.

Newly opened · 2026

Built fresh, placed exactly where the old city already gathers.

Rosetta Inn opened its doors in 2026 on Nai Sarak, near Sheikh Saleem Gate — a lane that's housed travellers to the Kashi Vishwanath Temple for generations. Every fitting is new: marble bathrooms, gold-trimmed interiors, a reception that guests photograph before they've even checked in.

What hasn't changed is the location. You're 600 metres from the Jyotirlinga temple itself, close enough to walk to the Ganga aarti, and still on a lane quiet enough to sleep well before an early darshan.

Before you book

Questions first-time visitors to the old city usually ask.

No — like every hotel in this lane, vehicles stop near Sheikh Saleem Gate and the last 400–500m is on foot. Call ahead and we'll send someone to meet you at the lane entrance and carry your bags in.

About 600 metres — an 8-minute walk through the lane. Go before 9:30am if you want to beat the darshan queue.

Not an on-site restaurant — we run room service instead, with meals delivered straight to your room whenever you want them.

Yes — our travel desk books airport taxis, helps with train tickets, and can arrange a sunrise boat ride or evening aarti viewing with a day's notice.

From early guests

A new hotel, and already a few favourite rooms.

“Everything felt brand new — the bathroom especially. And genuinely an 8-minute walk to the temple, not a stretched estimate.”
Meera K., Bengaluru
“The lane walk-in threw us for a minute, then the front desk called and someone met us at the gate.”
Tom H., London
“Room service was quick even late at night after a long train journey. Small but well run.”
