Hammock Hostel is top notch. I stayed in the single room my last few days in India and it was exactly what I needed, not to mention in a great little nerighborhikd. When I arrived, the reception was so naturally friendly and welcoming. The public areas were cozy, we'll designed, and with great ambiance. They have a lot of useful information for travelers and tours and services, like laundry (was much needed!). I'm so grateful to find you all and had a magnificent stay. Good luck, and hope to come again.

Really great hostel! Relaxed, friendly vibe. Very social with things like free breakfast and tea in the evening! The main man Shaan at the front desk was super helpful with everything. Only x4 person rooms was a lot more comfortable than other hotels with x10!

I stayed 2 nights. The first night in the large dormitory and the second night in the 6-bed AC dorm. I found the large dormitory more comfortable than the smaller one.

Absolutely loved my 2-week stay at Hostel Mantra! The 6-bed female dorm was clean, comfy, and had great AC and fans. Bathrooms were tidy and well-maintained. The hostel has two lovely common areas—one by the reception with a projector for movie nights, and a rooftop space with a kitchen and chill vibes. The staff were super kind, responsive, and always happy to help. I met the most amazing people here—it’s a great place to connect with fellow travelers. And special shoutout to Tra, the sweetest hostel dog ever, who made everyone feel extra loved. Looking forward to coming back again!

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.

    This is simply the best hostel I have been to in India. It is amazing! Very helpful stuff, they literally helped me with everything, with all the questions I had. Very polite and professional. There was no people who would drink alcohol or party, which is a huge plus. Nobody bothered me through my stay, very safe. I am traveling alone as a female so it is important for me. Terrace is simply amazing, I spend a lot of time there. The rooms were clean, very comfortable bed. I recommend it 100%

    Locomo is by far the best hostel I have stayed in mumbai. Very neat and clean property..washrooms are extremely clean and to my surprise, the cleaning team comes thrice a day to clean the room. Very well maintained hostel and perfect stay for backpackers..Staff is wonderful and kind.. well trained and professional..They have designated guy for carrying luggage he just comes on a whim for helping with luggage. Roof top lighting’s are so amazing and evening sunset with tea and music is mesmerising.
