- Review score9.4Wonderful · 230 reviewsEverything was amazing. The hosts were super welcoming and hospitable. You can rent vehicles directly from the hostel, there are several plug points in the hostel, there is a functioning kitchen for those who prefer to cook their own meals, the rooms are clean,etc. I personally found the hostel safe as a solo traveller.Guest review byChitrithaSolo traveler
- Avg. price/night: $64.82Review score9.1Wonderful · 606 reviewsAbsolutely Delightful Experience staying at OSTEL! The vibe is unmatched! The staff is friendly and helpful. Dinesh, JP, Anil make you feel at home with their hospitality and warmth. The inhouse cafe has good food. Need a cafe on the rooftop as well ! The place was exceptionally clean, given the fact it's right next to the beach and covered with trees on all sides and is a backpackers hostel. Just request the owners of the property to privatize the beach patch right in front. That would make the property a 20/10.Guest review byVaish SSolo traveler
- Review score9.4Wonderful · 230 reviewsIt's completely a unique experience in Unpack. One of the best hostel I have been ever. From the check in to checkout everything was amazing in details. Host Kavya and Prateek are amazing people. The property really has a vibe.Guest review byVictorSolo traveler
- Avg. price/night: $64.82Review score9.1Wonderful · 606 reviewsOstel is a backpacker's dream come true, offering an ideal blend of affordability and luxury. Their dorm options cater perfectly to the wandering soul, providing a cozy and communal atmosphere for fellow travelers to connect and share stories. Despite the budget-friendly ratesGuest review byShariffSolo traveler
- Avg. price/night: $23.90Review score8.6Excellent · 208 reviewsBefore being in this hostel, I was in another 2,5 km from the center but this one was really well situated, in the main active center of Pondichéry (that's not what said google when I followed the 'distance to center', if only I knew it before 😥). The dormitory was quite large with a balcony, a kitchen to share, all really clean. It's like a house with huge spaces recently renovated, really really nice ! And the welcome is warm. It was a really good surprise for this price !Guest review byyannSolo traveler
- Review score8.7Excellent · 410 reviewsMicasa hostels - my first solo trip hostel and boy am I glad i picked this place.
