The Truth About HostelExp in Auroville… (From Someone Who Stayed Over a Week) I booked HostelExp for just one night but ended up staying over a week. It’s one of those places that’s easy to settle into—comfortable, quiet, and thoughtfully run 🌿🛖. The yoga shala was a real highlight 🌳🧘♂️. It’s clean, peaceful, and felt like a great place to start each day. The whole property is well-maintained, and you can tell there’s real care behind the scenes. Everything from the rooms to the common spaces had a calm, intentional vibe 🍃. What I appreciated most was the balance between community and personal space 🍂🪷. There were always friendly people around, but it never felt busy or overwhelming. I could join in or take time for myself, and both felt equally supported. Nitish was really helpful before I even arrived, sending clear directions and making the whole process simple 🛤️. Once I got there, he made sure I felt welcome. Lucky, who helps take care of the space, was kind and friendly too 🌼🙂. For what’s offered, the price is very fair 🍀. If you’re heading to Auroville and looking for a quiet, conscious place to stay, HostelExp is a great choice. I’d definitely come back 🌺✨.

I had a wonderful stay at the hostel, largely thanks to its excellent utilities and warm hospitality provided by Hari & Atchaya. The rooms were clean and well-maintained, with comfortable beds & cupboard/luggage space. I really liked the mobile charge hangers next to each bed.
During our stay, we played a few board games and enjoyed chatting with the host & other travelers. The terrace provides a good view of the surroundings. The place is a must visit during the full moon. I would definitely visit this place 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.
No breakfast available at this hotel, booked only for 6 days though my stay was longer. Moved to a cheaper hotel in Namakkal that was not on Booking.com after the 6 days. Stayed before so knew what to expect. The hotel has secure parking so was able to park my motorbike safely overnight.
Great location, great view from the roof, comfy cheap room
It was the best hostel I have ever stayed in, you could see how everything has been made with love. The owners are such nice and genuine people. I loved my stay at The Birdhouse Hostel
Just trust me this is where you want to stay. It's worth paying an extra dollar or two over the cheapest option. Super clean, very comfortable, great facilities, aircon, flat screen, windows. Great restaurant downstairs which is cheap. Do yourself a favor and stay here. Luxury feel for budget price.
We had such an amazing stay at Broad Lands. We felt welcomed as soon as we arrived and the staff we happy to help with any questions we had. The chill space is so serene and the option to head to the roof top is perfect for sunset. The property is absolutely beautiful! Light, airy, beautifully restored, they’ve kept the charm of the old 50s building perfectly. It feels like a safe and cosy homestay. The room was cool comfy and clean. Would absolutely recommend for anyone staying in Chennai. Great location too.
Best Hostel in Chennai for backpackers!
