Very pleasantly surprised after staying in another similar priced hostel in the area. The room was very clean, sheets were fresh with 2 pillows each so very comfy.

Budget travellers know that there is 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 bit more.

    Great location for us - we were only staying one night, and it was in the middle of the two stations we arrived/departed from. Great info before you arrive to keep you safe in getting to the hostel. Super clean, hot shower, comfy bed, very quiet. Rooftop was great for breakfast, delicious omelette.

    Probably the best hostel in Delhi. Superb team of friendly, helpful staff, a very sociable atmosphere, with close proximity to Laxmi Nagar metro station, from where you can explore all of Delhi conveniently and cheaply. Lively street outside has a great selection of budget street food and events/tours are on offer most days. The perfect base from which to explore Delhi.

    Stayed in "6-bed mixed dormitory room", quite cheap and practical stay in Paharganj! Clean and comfy beds, located in a quiet backside street away from noise, big lockers, well-functionning hot water, electric plugs and wi-fi. Good budget hostel located near many restaurants and only one minute walking from metro Ramakrishna ashram marg. Thanks!
