Nestled in the heart of the spiritual city of Varanasi, LiveFree Hostel offers not only a cozy and vibrant accommodation experience but also an enchanting musical journey that elevates the entire stay to a new level. The live music sessions at LiveFree Hostel are nothing short of magical, creating an unforgettable atmosphere that resonates with the soul.

From the moment I stepped into the hostel's communal area, I could feel the pulsating energy of the place. The decor, infused with artistic flair and bohemian charm, sets the perfect stage for the musical performances that unfold here regularly. The comfortable seating arrangements and warm lighting create an intimate ambiance, fostering a sense of community among fellow travelers and music enthusiasts.

What truly sets LiveFree Hostel apart is the diverse range of musical genres featured in their live performances. Whether you're a fan of traditional Indian classical music, folk tunes, or even contemporary sounds, the hostel curates a lineup that caters to a broad spectrum of tastes. Each night brings a new and exciting experience, making it almost impossible to resist the temptation to attend every session during your stay.

The live performances are not just a form of entertainment; they serve as a cultural immersion, providing guests with a deeper understanding of the rich musical heritage of Varanasi.

One of the standout features of LiveFree Hostel's live music experience is its ability to create a sense of unity among guests. Strangers become friends as they bond over the shared joy of music, fostering a unique and welcoming...

I stayed here for around 20 days, and they took the entire booking amount in advance with no cancellation option, so I could not even cancel or get a refund.

Location is in peaceful area near Assi ghat, but there are no good restaurants or food options nearby. The property is very beautiful with a nice sitting space in their courtyard. But there are several recurring issues that make the stay less enjoyable.

The AC in dormitory is unreliable, water leakage from the AC units and no AC for some nights. And on one horrible night there were power cuts every 5 minutes. Imagine the fans and AC works for 5 minutes and power off for next 5 minutes, like this for the whole night. After exploring Kashi for full day I was so tired and just wanted to sleep but I had to experience this.

There is no hot water showers at this hostel despite telling the staff multiple times to turn on the geyser in the morning, I had to bath with cold water everyday. The staff is unprofessional, they will gossip and talk about your hostel booking and travel plans with other guests. They don’t pay attention to guest’s needs nor focus on making the stay more comfortable.

You can find many good home stays or rooms at the same price in Varanasi. I feel this hostel is overpriced, chaotic and they do not provide the AC dorm as advertised. Also, It is very far from the main tourist spots like Baba Vishwanath temple, Dashashwamedh ghat, Kashi chat and...

Rooms are clean , Manager at reception is Keniya quit accomodating , Vibe good , common area under making , cafe food average , Shanky cafe manager is rude unprofessional refuse to serve me morning Tea because I wanted without sugar , refused breakfast order and said he can not serve it as I asked reception manager to look in to the matter , as per him he should have not refused the order But Shanky the manager stucked to his descision and he refused breakfast order Said on my face ask receptionist to prepare the breakfast for me ....I have never faced such humiliation in my travel experience I am frequent Traveler but this was disgusting... This hostel claim to be classy and guest centric but it's apposite , I would recommend people never stay at place where you don't get respect .... After paying over priced cafe menu and staying in over price rooms during Holi season you get to treat like garbage it's unethical , I am also gone report this to the owner of this hostel , he has invested so much hard work to build this property but unprofessional staff makes it difficult to stay in the hostel ... I was told by Shanky I don't how to prepare food go somewhere else..! Post reporting issue the owner over the phone acknowledge it is staff. Behaviour issue he physically was not present he ensured he will take appropriate action towards it

I am a frequent solo traveler and I have stayed in many hostels, but none felt as warm as Live Free in Banaras. The moment I entered the hostel, the warmth which host Mr Dhruv welcomed me was really amazing, it felt as if I was welcomed into my own home !! It’s just 300 meters from Assi Ghat, you can walk to the ghat at anytime, The whole place is very well designed, very spacious dorms , common area is beautifully done. When it comes to in-house canteen food was yummy and not very hard on the pocket specially the Delux Thali and service by Mr Kesar was cherry on the top. I remember telling Dhruv yaar sab badhiya hai but Table Tennis rackets are not good and within an hour he got a new pair of racket and I must tell you was shocked to see him react so quickly to the request that’s how brilliant he and his team is. Whenever I am in Varanasi this is the place I Am going to live and LIVE Free !!!

I recently stayed at a live free hostel in Varanasi and had an incredible experience. The location was perfect, just a 5-8 minute walk from Assi Ghat. The dormitory was immaculately clean with comfortable beds, ensuring a restful night's sleep. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, catering to every query and making me feel valued. They even allowed me to stay in the common area before check-in time, which was greatly appreciated. The common area itself was vast and welcoming, equipped with engaging games and activities that facilitated meaningful interactions with fellow travelers. I met some incredible people during my stay, forging unforgettable connections. Overall, I highly recommend a live free hostel to anyone traveling to Varanasi. Its unbeatable location, spotless facilities, and warm staff make it an absolute must-stay.
