I intended to stay here for only 1 night, but it ended up being 4 because I loved it so much. I’ve stayed in a fair amount of hostels as a solo traveler, but this is one of the best I’ve ever stayed at. It is situated close to the beach & restaurant area, & the property itself has a big common area & a beautiful outside area to meet & hang out with staff & other travelers. what makes this place unique, however, is the people who run it - they are so friendly, welcoming, & really care about you. If you are thinking of coming to varkala, then “Hostel Stories” is where you want to stay at for the good vibes!

First impressions was good! A very safe and comfortable hostel stay for travellers. Lovely yard and garden with fruit trees and lots of plants. This is a place for peace minded and for some great activities. I met some really nice people here. The owner and staff are really warm, welcoming, kind and will help you for any needs. They have a nice kitchen where you can cook your own meal. My overall experience was so good and it makes me feel I should visit again.

I cant say anything bad. The owner is taking care of you more than yourself :) 🙏 rooms and dormitory are very clean, there is a roof top so I did yoga there it's very nice. He is very thoughtful and talkative so I felt like I am staying with my friend not like in the guest house..

The hostel is clean, well maintained and has a great scenic view from the rooftop. The staff is warm and welcoming. My personal favourite were the evening activities organised by Deeya. She ensured we got access to some exclusive events inside Auroville including a pizza night at Youth Center, and a drumming circle at Dinesh restaurant. All in all, a relaxing and soothing stay with exciting new experiences!

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 ;)

Big hostal in Auroville and great location near first entry point. Staff there all the time ready to help or advise points of interest.So much space in common areas with lots of lounging beds on various floors and games to play.Some activities planned for some evenings.Small kitchen area with drinking water available. Dorm beds with curtains,charger and light.All clean linen. Definitely worth a visit at such a good cheap price.

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!
