Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is 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 bit more.

    Really good hostel and it's the cheapest one. Well maintained and clean. Good place to meet new people and I got friends though. You get curtains in the dorm and lockers for free.

    Grateful for the exceptional hospitality at Hostellers by Aashish. The warmth and homely service provided by Chef Ajay, staff members Abhishek,naresh,Rahul & Vikesh and F&B Manager Rana Ji make us feel not just like guests but cherished members of an extended family. Our stay has been marked by a sense of safety, genuine care, and moments of true happiness. Kudos to the staff for creating a home away from home. 🏨🌟
