Cleanliness lacking and breakfast was edible but no more

Friendly and helpful staff. No cockroaches is a definite plus in Delhi. Located off the main drag so as quiet as can be expected during Diwali. I'd return.

Actually hotel Fantastic doesn’t exist, the real hotel is Hindustan by backpackers, I didn’t like the mystery until we arrived. The receptionist was a bit rude, accepted our good booking.com price just for one night than he raise 700 rs. The toilet seat was broken, there was a bad smell in the toilet, the grate for the shower drain was not fixed and sometimes the hole was unprotected. Food of restaurant was average.

The room was big, nice, with a little balcony, ac and fan working, small fridge, very comfortable bed, good shower gel, good location for Paharganj.

Only downside is the street outside. It might not be for everyone. The lane was rather dirty with garbage scattered throughout the street. It's not situated in the cleanliest part of Delhi. But it is walking distance to the street bazars, cafes and bars.

What I like about the place were the accommodative staff. The staff were super helpful and quick to fulfil any requests, from serving food to the room, providing extra towels, sheets or any other cleaning requests. The food at the hostel was good. Had the best biriyani from the whole trip there.

First it's not called Delhi Fantastic, you won't find it with this name. Instead it's called Hindustan by Backpackers Heaven. We were looking for the hostel for almost an hour arriving at this street and leaving after not finding it. We tried ringing hostel and took multiple attempts to get through to learn of it's diffrent name. Also only wanted cash which wasn't mentioned before booking.

OK value and comfortable bed. There are 2 metro stations near by one in walking distance other little further but worth a rickshaw with bags. I would recommend this for travelling around Delhi and from airport much cheaper and very efficient compared to taxi hostel offers.

Name on booking.com is different from hostel correct name was difficult to locate. Talked to other backpackers and their name for hostel was also different from mine and not correct. This happens all over India and is very common I have found.

Great location.

I did not like that, first of all, I booked the taxi with them and they chraged me 700 INR when Uber showed that it could be done for 400. Second AND WORSE. They took me to another location, I mean, another hostel DIFFERENT to the one I booked on Booking and told me that their boss have 5 hostels around and they changed me because they got a huge group of europeans coming to the other hostel and so they had to move me WITH NO PREVIOUS NOTICE. They never told me they would change my hostel, SO, imagine myself arriving at Delhi ALONE, AT NIGHT and BEING TAKEN TO A DIFFERENT PLACE. IT SUCKED. SO SO SO DISSAPOINTING, I cannot believe how the reservation was managed through Booking and this happened. I think i will not even use Booking again. Later, a friend told me (who has spent most of summers in India), that this is something that happens in Delhi... they take you to a different place and charge you more for the new location so basically they SCAM you. To me they charged the same, but wahtever, it was a terrible first experience in India.

The space of the rrom was ok. The bathroom was clean and toilet paper and towels were provided for each bed.

The fraud that they carry in several property names. Interestingly I booked UNV Hostel, but here I'm writing review for Hostel Delhi Fantastic. Isn't this a fraud? The hostel is in narrow, smelly bylane and quite poorly maintained. I saw dog poop all over the floors. Room linen had hair strands, which means it wasn't replaced after previous guest check-out. No natural light, damp and very uncomfortable atmosphere. Probably hippies on low budget will only like it. And btw, the location on Maps is totally wrong.

Almost nothing

Highly recommend this hostel for anyone visiting in Paharganj New Delhi

The communication was horrible. They are simply fraudulent mucks. They tried to scam me. Asked me to come to a different location instead of the hostel location given on on the app. Upon refusal to go at their provided location on WhatsApp and refused to contact further, they told the number registered on booking.com is a wrong number
