Espire Hospitality Limited has announced the opening of Country Inn, Varanasi, thereby strengthening its Country Inn Hotels & Resorts portfolio. Moreover, the launch supports the company’s broader strategy to expand across high-potential destinations in India.
Located in the central part of Varanasi, one of the world’s oldest living cities, the hotel enjoys close proximity to prominent ghats and temples, ensuring convenient access for both leisure and business travellers. Additionally, the property features modern guestrooms with contemporary interiors, along with high-speed Wi-Fi and standard in-room amenities designed to enhance guest comfort.
Furthermore, the hotel houses SUTRA By Banaras, a multi-cuisine restaurant serving a selection of Indian and international dishes. The restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor seating, while positioning itself as an all-day dining destination for in-house guests.
Commenting on the launch, Akhil Arora, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, Espire Hospitality Limited, said, “Varanasi is a city of unparalleled spiritual depth, shaped by its cultural richness, history, and tradition. We are proud to bring Country Inn to this sacred destination, thoughtfully creating a space that resonates with the city’s timeless spirit while offering contemporary comfort and our signature warm hospitality. With the opening of Country Inn, Varanasi, our endeavour is to offer travellers a fresh and modern space to pause and immerse themselves in the timeless charm of this beautiful city.”
Consequently, the opening further strengthens Espire Hospitality Limited’s national footprint. The company has already signed properties in Rishikesh, Udaipur, Jalandhar, North Goa, Dehradun, and Varanasi, and it continues to progress toward its goal of 30 operational hotels by FY26.
