The Granny's Inn - Warm bosom of an ​Indian h​ome

The Granny's Inn Banaras is not just a cosy homestay. It is the warm 
bosom of an Indian home. The selfless care and the doting love of two grannies, delicious home cooked food, laughter, sunshine and the simple good life of a large Indian family is what the Granny’s Inn is all about.


The concept of this homestay has brought meaning and purpose to the life of the feisty grannies and loads of self respect and dignity.  The Granny's Inn, Banaras is a cosy, clean and safe stay option for travelers especially women travelers from around the world.



A first of its kind in Banaras for a homestay to provide a window to the art and crafts of India. We want visitors at our inn to get to know about the delightful and intricate handicraft and art scene of Banaras. Through this we plan to promote the local artist and craftsmen. The design brief for the inn was to capture the soul of the Granny's Inn. The design - be it the day in the life of a granny- poster, the pickle making or the grannies at the market poster  - is very Indian in its sensibility.




Our creative inspiration comes from children's tales and rhymes- Nani teri morni ko mor le gaye, baaki jo bacha tha kale chor le gaye


And last but not the least , the rooms are all about the stories of women in our family who are important in our lives and have contributed in some way or the other to the making of the GI.



Over time we are sure our story will grow and we will have a range of merchandise, accessory and art around the Granny's Inn. 

In case you are interested in staying at the Granny's Inn or buying art from us or even starting a GI of your own  please drop a mail to
