I was looking for a place to stay in Banglore for only 1 day as I had to fly back home. Since I was alone i was looking for a place in the centre. Then I came across The Hosteller.. it is infact a dormitory but very nice. And the ambiance around is very nice. Everyone was very cooperative. The hall on group floor is the best. Good staff. Best place for working class people

I really enjoyed my stay here and can recommend it to anyone visiting Mysuru. The location is perfect, quiet and not too crowded, yet still close to the city center. I stayed both in a single room and in the dormitory, and liked them equally. Both were spacious, very clean, and comfortable, just like the hostel overall. A special thanks to Viru, his wife, and their family. They are wonderfully warm and kind people, always ready to help with recommendations for restaurants and places to visit. On several occasions they even cooked for me and offered me tea, which made me feel truly at home. I would definitely stay here again.

Amazing view, living by the Ocean. Sunrise by the sea on the tarrace is priceless. Rooms totally clean, staff is so lovely and welcoming. The distance to Pondicherry and Auroville is at hand. I could not stay at the better place. Everything is perfect. 💛

This hostel is perfect. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and come with a fan. There’s also a rooftop where you can do yoga or just hang out and have a good time with friends. It’s a quiet, relaxing place and very well located close to Varkala Beach and Black Sand Beach, one of the calmest beaches in the area. From here, you can walk north along the entire coastline, which is a really beautiful experience. I totally recommend it.

Everything was amazing. The hosts were super welcoming and hospitable. You can rent vehicles directly from the hostel, there are several plug points in the hostel, there is a functioning kitchen for those who prefer to cook their own meals, the rooms are clean,etc. I personally found the hostel safe as a solo traveller.

Broad Lands was fantastic, clean, and had charming colonial architecture. Its location made visiting key attractions easy. A tip for future visitors: use the Metro from the airport. We found it much cheaper and more convenient on our return trip. I highly recommend this hostel for its cleanliness, charm, and convenience.

The location was stunning, with the property right on the beach. The cafeteria was good and budget-friendly. The entire staff was very helpful and friendly. The overall vibe of the Zostel was excellent—safe and relaxing. I’d definitely visit again.

Great hostel run by super friendly staff, the rooms and bathrooms are clean, the common area is perfect for chilling and socializing, and they serve homemade meals for a very good price. The location is good and it was easy to find with the staff's directions, lots of food options nearby, and it's right next to the Little Mount metro station. The only down side for me is that it was a bit pricey for my budget, but I really enjoyed my stay ;)

A really really cute hostel, with lovely architecture! Rooms and beds were really comfy, and the AC was incredible! Great location for tourist needs, good food nearby, and a cheap Uber to the palace etc. Space to sit outside and in the common area, as well as having great kitchen facilities and dining area! The security guard on 24/hrs made us feel super safe and was also a great character, always willing to chat and hang out with us despite not knowing much english, he was a great laugh and asset to the place!
