Stayed in March 2025

The curtains were stained and the pillows clearly had mold spots on them. The room/bathroom was overall not super clean, but it was fine. Our room was situated right below the cafe, and despite saying that it closes at 10pm, we had 3 nights in a row we could not sleep because they seemed to be partying upstairs until midnight - 1am and we could hear people literally screaming. We did not say anything as this is a hostel and it is somewhat to be expected, but I think we got the worst of it because we were staying right under the cafe/terrace area. The worst part is that one day there was a big pile of animal feces (I guess\I hope lol) on the main stairs leading to the rooms and you need to pass by this staircase to reach the reception, but it was not cleaned for 2 days. We saw someone step in it and made it worse by "cleaning" their shoe on the stairs, so it was everywhere. The staircase is outside and there is animals around, so it can happen, but they did not clean it for 2 days...

The room was spacious and had a beautiful view, same for the rooftop. The cafe was great as well and the staff was very helpful and nice

Everything is great.

It was not possible to pay with an international credit card. An online payment system would not work here, while it did work a week later at another location. So maybe just a glitch. Luckily, among the two ATMs in town, one would accept my card and so I was able to pay in cash.

The perfect view from the terrace to the mountain range, the friendly and helpful staff, good Indian food, even a carrom board in the community room ready for use. Good information at the reception regarding trips, hikes, stores, local events.

There was not much we didn’t like! It was a great hostel. Only downside is you have to walk up and down many stairs to reach the hostel, but we got a good work out!

We had a great stay at the Zostel Mcleodganj! Our room was private and had the most amazing views of the mountains through two large windows. We woke up to the sunrise reach morning and it was incredibly peaceful. The hostel itself is nice and clean and had many areas to hang out and relax. They also have books in the communal area you can read and the views from the communal balcony are wonderful. The food at the hostel was also really tasty! It has an active hostel vibe as well with nice travelers. We are Definitely going to try out other Zostel around India now! The location is great to walk around Mcleodganj and to explore the neighboring villages.

The steps down to the hotel

Cafe and view

The steps walking down was challenging. The cleanliness of the steps ( public place ) can be improved.

Spacious and clean.

The staff and overall feel

To reach Zostel, there are 100 steps to descend and climb back up, which can be inconvenient. Adding to it no one really helped with the baggage even after asking for it. The washrooms had a foul smell. The rooms didn't look as bright as they did in the pictures.

The common area and rooftop Cafe is a vibe. Great view from room and rooftop. They arrange different activities and game sessions, so, that's fun. Great for solo travelers who like to mingle or a group of friends. The staff was polite.

There are a lot of stairs for traveling to and from this place, but that's a thing about Mcleodganj, wherever you go, you'll have to climb many stairs and inclined planes. The lighting inside the dorm could be better. It was quite dim, you can't do much in that light.

The ambiance was nice. The cafe was good, lots of games and the staff was fun to hang out with.

50 steps through open drainage to enter property. Some days had trash thrown on the steps

Location

Stayed in March 2024

The location requires climbing up and down 100 steps before reaching the main road The rooms could be a bit more spacious

The view The terrace cafe Great place to socialize

Stayed in March 2024

Supporting staff could give better hospitality like carrying luggage from reception to rooms as there is no lift. Also, one should know that one has to take 98 steps to reach the hotel so one will have to be fit guy.

The location is superb. Room size etc is good, we get sun in the morning being east facing. Value for money.

The 100 stairs it take to reach the properly and the room and the cafe

View from the cafe is the best you can get , but the way to the hostel is tough, too many stairs

Stayed in January 2024

Didn’t know about all the steps to get to property before booking, but still a great place to stay

Great hostel and facilities, staff super friendly and helpful.

Rude guy like Mr Ankit in the cafe (common area) who tried to interrupt us and imposed curfew hours only cos few residents were celebrating birthday and we were laughing bit loud..later he was seen partying with other staff members after shooing us away. Extremely unhospitable.. Zostel should brief thier staff properly and the staff should know how to profile guests better., if et Al they are suppose to do profiling Also 4500rs/per night is way too much for a basic room in a place like McLeodgunj.

Breathtaking views Scrumptious food Adult only polices which made conversations and socializing so much easier Nice positive vibes of the residents And helpful reception staff
