Located in Srinagar, 7.1 miles from Shankaracharya Mandir, Whostels Srinagar provides accommodations with a garden, free private parking and a shared lounge.

Whostels was very clean and cozy, and the staff were all very attentive and warm. The staff immediately assisted with whatever questions we had and were very friendly throughout our few days. The location is great. It is in a very accessible location to the gardens and Dal lake (walkable). For transit, I recommend sharing the street name and locality, rather the name of hostel with taxis and rickshaws for easiest access. We had no trouble reaching all of our desired locations in Srinagar, but it was nice to be off main roads in a quiet village area. The breakfast was also very good 🙏🏻

Zostel made my Srinagar vacation much peaceful and better. Every staff there is very friendly and very helpful, even the cafeteria food is best.

Located in Srinagar, 10 miles from Shankaracharya Mandir, Moonshine Home stay provides accommodations with a garden, free private parking and a shared lounge.

I had a truly lovely stay at this homestay, nestled in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood. Unfortunately, I fell ill during my visit, but the hosts went above and beyond to take care of me. They personally took me to the hospital and checked in on me regularly, showing genuine care and kindness. Their compassion turned a challenging situation into a comforting experience. I’m incredibly grateful and would wholeheartedly recommend staying here.

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.

    Glad we found this place. As solo female travellers we felt safe and welcomed at home. Hanan, the owner is a good guy and helped us get best prices for other services. Basic yet clean rooms, a superb lake view and hot water even with a tub. A good place to stay in Kashmir and close to downtown. The boats taking you from shore to the hotel take 5 mins which are an extra relaxing time. Good family run place to stay on a budget and live the floating house experience

    This hotel (I figure: probably the chain) fills the gap between on the one hand questionable <3000₹ (30€) accommodations and on the other hand extremely pricey western >20000₹ (200€) chain hotels. A backpacker from Europe, I needed a clean place to crash after some stays in different hostels.
