The 12 person dorm has its own bathroom and since the room wasnt full, it wasn't so bad. The AC is nice there so that was worth it. Breakfast is decent. If you're not into the deep fried stuff or breads, they will usually have fruit. Comfortable enough stay but far from the town which can be good because it's quieter but also annoying because when it rains there's no choice but to take a car. Otherwise, the walk is only 15-20 minutes which really isn't a long walk.

The staff at this hostel are amazing! Shout-out to Arjun, Bibs and Maya and all of the other lovely folks working here. They are super friendly, and going back after our trek felt a bit like coming home. They deserve so much recognition as everyone is working their butts off haha! Otherwise, the rooms we had were really nice and clean and having breakfast included was also great. Very social place without being rowdy or loud. :)

Good room with a big, comfortable bed! Bathroom is fine — clean, with a small window to keep it dry. The layout is a bit unusual, but it works. The rooftop is very good — nice view and different types of seating. There are also proper tables where it's comfortable to work on a laptop. Very friendly staff. There's a self-service kitchen on the rooftop, which is a big plus! And — there's a table in the room! So I could work inside too!

I checked into Nepalaya Eco Hostel on my first night in Pokhara and ended up staying for over a month. It’s such an easy place to relax and just unwind. Rather than feeling like a typical hostel, it felt more like a homestay with a restaurant—comfortable and welcoming—yet still offered the benefits of a hostel. I enjoyed meeting other travelers in the shared dorm, and the atmosphere was laid-back and friendly. The family who runs the hostel was incredibly helpful on many occasions—from finding me a quiet room for a conference call to setting up an extension cord so I could charge my laptop in the dorm. These small acts of kindness made a big difference in my stay. I’d definitely return here the next time I’m in Pokhara.

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.

    Nice chilled out hostel with friendly staff. Large common room with places to sit, books to read and a TV sometimes showing sport. Rooms were comfortable. Water refills are available, you can book buses and tours at reception and there is a 'free stuff' area which is always handy for backpackers on a budget. Laundry is 150r per kg for 24 hour turnaround or 250r for six hours.

    Kiwi backpackers is one of the best hostels I have stayed in. Location is great, very central, staff are super helpful and lovely, rooms are clean comfortable and well appointed. I had a private room and it was excellent. General vibe is friendly with lots of opportunities to meet like minded travellers. Special mention to the lovely Maya and Susma.
