It’s the best hostel I’ve stayed in India, the rooms are really clean and comfortable (I loved that the bunk beds have curtains and light). The food in the rooftop cafe is delicious and most of all the staff is really friendly and helpful, they are beautiful people. I would definitely come back! :)

Very welcoming staff working here, I was here for Diwali and it was a lot of fun. I liked that it’s tucked up the mountain a little off the main road. My room was super comfortable. I was able to get a ride to and from airport so it was no hassle getting here.

This is a very nice hotel with friendly owners and a lovely garden filled with Jasmine and oleander. It's very quiet and clean, hot water whenever you want, a/c works great. The location is perfect, walkable to everything. Overall, a very nice and relaxing stay at a great price.

The female dorm was great, comfy beds, big bathroom to share, quite clean. The cafe had a wonderful vibe, very cozy, with some great background music. There are 4 adorable cats living there, who sometimes come cuddle with you while you eat, read, or simply relax on the couches... The staff was really friendly, welcoming, and helpful, making sure we had everything we needed and making recommendations on things to do or where to find stuffs in Rishikesh. The place is right in the middle of the main street, with a lot of clothing shops, organic stores, and the beautiful Ganga river few meters away :) looking forward to come back!

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.

    I recently stayed at Madpacker 2.0 and had a fantastic experience. The hostel was clean, comfortable, and had a friendly atmosphere. The staff were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about the local area. I especially enjoyed the small get-togethers they arranged every noon and night, which made it easy to meet fellow travelers. Overall, Madpacker offers excellent value for money and a welcoming environment. Highly recommended for budget-conscious travelers!
