The Hosteller Amritsar, Near Golden Temple is located in Amritsar, 1.7 miles from Durgiana Temple and a 13-minute walk from Partition Museum.

It’s near Golden temple (so expect lots of noise, traffic, trash…). Convenient to walk to bus station also. Room with A/C.

Located within a 19-minute walk of Partition Museum and 1.2 miles of Gobindgarh Fort, Wow Backpackers Hostels provides rooms in Amritsar.

Dirty, smelly rooms, very far from Golden Temple, situated in a very congested place, not worth a stay.

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Great location - short walk from the Golden Temple. Staff were awesome for recommending places to eat and Vicki was an awesome guide for the Border Tour (booked through the hostel). Aircon works great!

    Budget hostel. Walkable distance to all visiting places. Nice staff. If you want to book a ride to anywhere, there is a tuk tuk driver whose name is Vikky, he is exceptional. He explains the entire history of Amritsar and very good person.

    Great location, just inside the old town. Not far from bus stand and not far from golden temple. Many restaurants and shops around. Great dorms with spacious lockers. Comfortable beds and good bathroom. Everything is very clean. Great common room and roof top terrace for socialising and relaxing. Staff is very helpful and can assist with tours, Sim cards etc. Special events like BBQ or movie night! Also safe motorbike parking (no cars!)

    The best hostel I have stayed in India. The room and toilet are very clean and comfortable. They clean everyday. Just 10 minutes walking to Golden temple. Everyday they organise Border culture tour just 300 rupees. The staffs are super kind and helpful. They booked Covid test with very cheap.price for my flight. Thank you very much!
