Loved the stay 😍 From the moment I arrived, The Hosteller Delhi felt like a home away from home. The staff were incredibly warm, helpful, and welcoming—always ready with local tips or just a friendly conversation. The atmosphere is vibrant, youthful, and full of positive energy, perfect for solo travelers or backpackers looking to meet new people. The rooms and common areas were clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed. The beds were comfortable, and the lockers provided peace of mind. I especially loved the rooftop chill zone—it’s a great place to unwind after a day of exploring the city. The location is super convenient too, with easy access to public transport, eateries, and key sights around Delhi. Plus, the hostel often hosts fun events and social nights which made my stay even more memorable.

I was pleasantly surprised by the upgrades from Moustache Delhi. They now have an amazing rooftop and a basement designed for events and leisure. I stayed in the premium dorm, which features a nice cushioned back and a very comfortable mattress. The property is located in one of the safest and most upscale localities in Delhi, with easy access to the metro. The host is incredibly friendly and can assist you with a 3-day itinerary or provide recommendations for events and restaurants, even if you're a returning guest. I highly recommend this property to travelers looking to make new friends and enjoy a memorable stay.

All hostels in New Delhi

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.

    Great location for us - we were only staying one night, and it was in the middle of the two stations we arrived/departed from. Great info before you arrive to keep you safe in getting to the hostel. Super clean, hot shower, comfy bed, very quiet. Rooftop was great for breakfast, delicious omelette.

    Probably the best hostel in Delhi. Superb team of friendly, helpful staff, a very sociable atmosphere, with close proximity to Laxmi Nagar metro station, from where you can explore all of Delhi conveniently and cheaply. Lively street outside has a great selection of budget street food and events/tours are on offer most days. The perfect base from which to explore Delhi.

    Stayed in "6-bed mixed dormitory room", quite cheap and practical stay in Paharganj! Clean and comfy beds, located in a quiet backside street away from noise, big lockers, well-functionning hot water, electric plugs and wi-fi. Good budget hostel located near many restaurants and only one minute walking from metro Ramakrishna ashram marg. Thanks!
