    The hostel is calm, peaceful and wonderfully located. The staff is courteous and the pets are playful. Had a good time interacting with fellow hostellers as well.

    Cozy stay in Rishikesh

    The food at the hotel was delicious, though it occasionally took longer to prepare than expected. We had some trouble figuring out the warm water in the bathroom, and the overall cleanliness of both the bathroom and the room could have been improved. Additionally, there’s another hotel nearby, which made the evenings a bit noisy at times.

    The hotel has a cozy, welcoming atmosphere and the staff were incredibly helpful throughout our stay. We stayed in one of the studios, and the bed was super comfortable. We happened to be there during Holi, and the hotel organized a lovely event for the celebration. The staff even kindly lent us clothes so we could take part in the Holi celebrations. We felt very safe and genuinely welcomed the entire time.

    Nothing as such.

    The place is very nice, nice dorm rooms, nicely done interior, greenery within the complex, newly built sitting and reading space is very nice, newly built cafe and the sitting area with a machan on top with cozy mattresses where you can relax during the daytime is very comfortable. This place is like a home to me. The owner, Sankalp is a great guy. The celebration of Holi and the Lunch was too good. This property hosts a lot of foreign tourists and travelers, making it a great place for multi cultural experience.

    One of the best hostel experiences I've had

    I can't think of anything I didn't like. The only thing I could mention would be no communal kitchen space - but they do have a boil water tap and constant cold water supply. So it was no issue because the food was so cheap to eat out I wouldn't have been cooking my own food anyway.

    I loved everything about this place. The vibe was on point, the staff were helpful and very chill and good fun. This hostel seemed to attract all the right people. It was like one big happy family. I only planned to stay for 3 nights but ended up extending each day and If I hadn't already somewhere to be and other commitments, I would have stayed longer.

    The rooms are so comfortable and beautifully decorated down to the smallest detail - lighting, coziness, furnishings. It is quite despite being close to many shops, cafes, etc. Their cafe is great. The staff are wonderful and so helpful!

    It would be great to add a sign at the entrance of the parking as it is difficult to find the hostel the first time

    Very nice hostel with beautiful and calm garden. Rooms are comfortable and clean. We had the best food at a restaurant just in front thanks to staff recommendation. Great experience overall!
