Planning an event is really stressful. When you are a parent and you want to have a wedding reception, it is very hard. When you are a manager and you have to organize a big corporate seminar, it is also very hard. There is always something that worries you. You think about the food, and you wonder if the food will be hot. You think about the air conditioner. You wonder if the air conditioner will work properly. You think about the space and you wonder if there is room for all the people to move around at the event.

At Hotel SGT Plaza we have heard those worries. We have spent years making sure our guests at Hotel SGT Plaza never have to deal with them. The city of Sarnath has a kind of energy. It is quieter more reflective and to be honest a lot easier to breathe in than the crowded heart of Varanasi. We have built our hospitality, at Hotel SGT Plaza around that sense of calm at Hotel SGT Plaza. When people tell us we offer the best banquet in Sarnath, they aren't usually talking about our tiles or our light fixtures; they’re talking about the fact that they actually got to enjoy their own party.

Why the Setting Matters

There is something special about starting something new like getting married or opening a business in a place like Sarnath. Sarnath is not a place that people visit it is a beautiful place that makes your pictures and memories even more special.

When you have your event at SGT Plaza, you get to stay in a hotel without all the noise and traffic of the city. Your guests can. Park easily and then they can walk into a place that feels really nice and private. SGT Plaza is a place to have a party because it is close to everything, but it is also quiet and peaceful, which is why people think we have one of the best banquet halls in Sarnath.

The Little Things That Aren't Little

We have all been to parties where the room looked great but the people, in charge did not do a good job.

 We don’t let that happen here. We focus on the things that actually matter to your guests:

The Food (The Shaakya Touch): Our restaurant, Shaakya, is the heartbeat of our banquet service. We don't do "mass-produced" tasting food. Whether it's a spicy local specialty or a classic North Indian paneer, it’s cooked with the same care we’d use for our own family.

The Commute & Stay: If you have family coming from out of town, the last thing you want is for them to be stuck in a rickshaw for two hours. We have 32 premium rooms right on-site. Your guests can go from the dance floor to a comfortable bed in three minutes flat.

A Space That Breathes: Our banquet hall is really flexible. We have had all sorts of events at the banquet hall from quiet and serious board meetings to happy Sangeet ceremonies. The banquet hall can change from a place for meetings to a place for parties, like the banquet halls Sangeet ceremonies and it does this very easily.

We’re Your "Plan B" (So You Don't Need One)

Power cuts? We have heavy-duty backup. Last-minute guest additions? Our staff is trained to pivot. Need a specific flower for the mandap that you forgot to order? We are very familiar with the markets.

The local markets are something we know well. People call us the banquet in Sarnath. They do this because we treat your event like the Sarnath banquets' reputation is at stake. For the Sarnath banquet, your event is not a booking. The Sarnath banquet knows that your event is a memory.

This memory is going to be in your photo albums and your family stories, for a long time for decades. We’d love for you to drop by Hotel SGT Plaza. Let me show you around the hall. You can see the rooms. Maybe have a cup of tea. We can talk about how to make your vision happen.

Planning an event can be a hassle. At SGT Plaza, we take care of everything. You just have to show up and look great.
