The views were incredible at this hostel, and it was a fabulous place to connect with other travellers and have great conversations. The owner was very friendly, and the food was delicious and easily ordered with pictures through your phone & delivered directly to your room 😍 They truly thought of everything here, and the walk up the hill from the main market was such a gift, walking through the rainforest you never knew what kind of wildlife you’d see 🤩

We had a fantastic stay at Eevolve Hostel! We originally booked for 1 night and ended up staying all 3 nights we were in Dharamshala. The location is perfect - a 10 minute walk up to the Main Street of Dharmkot, a 10 minute walk down to the main area of Bhagsu, and just a 25 minute walk to McLeod Ganj. You’re tucked into the forest so you feel very secluded despite being so close to everything. And everyone who works there is incredibly friendly and helpful. The team hosts hikes for a sunset view, and a fire in the common area every night where you have the opportunity to meet other people from the hostel. Our only regret is not being able to stay longer!

Wonderful staff, a great place to meet new people, clean dorms, and it’s so convenient to have a (really good!) restaurant right next to the hostel. This is a great, peaceful part of Dharamkot to have as a base for exploration. You are conveniently located to visit Dharamkot/Bhagsu Nag/Mcleod Ganj, or to take a hike up to Gallu and beyond. I stayed longer than expected and was sad to leave. I definitely recommend this place!

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.

    We spent a few days at Thrillomania and were pleasantly surprised by the kindest of the staff. We spent some time with Rajesh who was so kind, he helped us with anything we needed help with and guided us with things to do in Dharamashala. The hostels in a great location, with a short walk into each 3 different areas of Dharamashala, which was great for us. Definitely would recommend this hostel if you’re coming to Dharamashala!

    This is the perfect hostel to stay. I fully enjoyed my time there. Big thanks for management. They were not only friendly but also caring. As a solo girl traveler, I felt very safe and like at home. The common area is very comfy and cozy, we watched movies, played games and overall had a lot of fun. The food was very tasty, and you will have enough options. The room and bed were clean and pretty well designed. You can always meet new people and make some new friends. Good people and good travelers community are there.
