    My stay at Utopia (8 bed dorm with balcony) was very comfortable and pleasant. This property has very good value for money, it's on the upper side of Dharamkot and surrounded by nature along with some new developments. Since I arrived I was welcomed and treated like family, the dorm balcony overlooks the woods and the hostel also includes a chill out / co-working large sunny area that you can truly enjoy. Huge thanks to Assan and his team that kindly took very good care of me. See you next time!

    The common washrooms could be a bit better. There were a few crane flies in the room which was kind of annoying. No direct connectivity to a main road, so one must climb an inclined pathway to reach the hostel

    The hostel itself was situated at a very serene place surrounded by pine trees and hills. The staff was very polite, friendly and hospitable. The bed was comfy and the room was clean as well. I would love to stay again at Utopia Dharamkot

    No kitchen access, the social vibe is less not the best because they have shifted the cafe to fruglar’s around the cornet. But if you can move back and forth between the two then fine. However, having the cafe inside the hostel would be amazing

    Wooden structure, big nice area to work and relax, clean bathrooms

    There was a loud group of people staying at same time and the property didn’t have good control of them, even as they were breaking most of the posted rules (noisy, not respecting quiet hours, partying all night)

    Very beautiful place, spacious commons area

    "Utopia Hostel, located away from the hustle and bustle of the city, offers a serene and peaceful retreat. The tranquil surroundings provide a relaxing escape, and the hostel's amenities are well-maintained. If you prefer a quiet atmosphere while still enjoying comfortable accommodations, Utopia Hostel away from the city is an excellent choice."

    If you want to travel around dharamshala and Mcleodganj, then it feels to be very far. Travelling cost adds up in this case. But if you are renting a vehicle then you don’t need to worry. What I didn’t like was that I had to travel back at nights to this far location.

    It is located at the top of the hills and provides very suitable conditions if you want to wfh. Provides scenic views.

    Food was below average. Stay was so bad that we had to move to another hotel the very next day. Bathrooms were not clean, there were insects all over the place, in the room as well. Only thick blankets were provided in summer. Would not recommend the hostel if you want to enjoy a pleasant stay.

    The staff - kitchen and cleaning crew were hospitable.
