My stay at this hostel was a truly pleasant experience. The property is very well maintained, with a strong emphasis on hygiene and cleanliness, which immediately made me feel comfortable and at ease. The staff deserves special mention for their warm hospitality and willingness to assist with even the smallest requests; they added a very personal touch to my stay. The hostel’s location in the heart of the city is ideal. Being so centrally situated made it easy to explore major attractions, access transportation, and enjoy the local atmosphere without any hassle. What sets this hostel apart, however, is its thoughtful concept of introducing Indian culture to travelers. From the design elements to the small cultural touches, the hostel creates an environment where guests can not only stay but also experience a slice of India in an authentic and engaging way. Overall, I would highly recommend this hostel to anyone seeking a clean, comfortable, and culturally enriching stay in the city. :)

Although there were mosquito repellents, there were still many mosquitoes. I killed about twenty in three days. • There aren’t many shopping places within walking distance.

The price is cheap. • The staff are kind. • They explain the rules through WhatsApp, which is helpful. • There is a lobby available for guests to relax in. • There is a water dispenser, so I never had trouble with drinking water.

Great option for solo travellers, in a great location. I always pick Locul Uptown.

Nothing specific though some activities can be arranged to connect solo travelers

The space is spacious, clean, airy and well lit up. The staff is extremely friendly and it gives homely vibes. If someone is looking for a non-party hostel, it is the perfect place to be

I don't really think there was much to not like.

I liked the fact that the hostel was in a great location. The staff was friendly and kind, and the beds were comfy. The room was big enough, and there was enough storage area in the locker. The outdoor and indoor sitting areas were very nice too.

Bit far from the centre. Autos and taxis are not always easily available. There are no grocery shops or eateries in the immediate vicinity, so you will have to rely on the online delivery apps. Otherwise nothing to complain about!

I've stayed here multiple times. It reminds me of a hostel in Goa. Located in a neighborhood that is very quiet and peaceful, surrounded by greenery, it's got a lovely ambience! It's also not very far from the airport

There could have been a bit more storage for travellers. The small lockers provided were just enough to keep one travel bag, with no space to keep ones dresses, especially if one is staying for more than one day.

A Hidden Gem in the Heart of the City – Locul Up Town I recently stayed at Locul Up Town and was genuinely impressed. From the moment I arrived, the experience was smooth, welcoming, and refreshingly comfortable. The hostel is incredibly spacious, giving you room to breathe – something that’s often hard to find in urban accommodations. The staff here are some of the nicest and most helpful people I’ve encountered on my travels. Always ready with a smile, local tips, or a helping hand, they made sure I felt at home throughout my stay. The location is another huge plus. Nestled in a high-end, peaceful part of town, it’s surrounded by leafy lanes and elegant homes, with several parks within easy walking distance – perfect for a morning stroll or winding down after a day out. Connectivity is top-notch. The Wi-Fi is excellent and reliable, making it an ideal spot for remote work or travel planning. The rooms are spacious, clean, and well-maintained – ideal whether you're staying for a few nights or a few weeks. What truly makes Locul Up Town special is its diverse, mixed crowd. You'll meet working professionals from across India as well as travelers from around the world. It's a great place to connect, exchange stories, or just chill in good company. All in all, this place hits the sweet spot between comfort, community, and calm. Highly recommended for solo travelers, digital nomads, or anyone looking for a quality stay in a lovely part of the city.

I only stayed here because it was close to the airport and it was literally to get a few hits sleep before a very early morning start so it would be unfair if me to comment on location. The dorm was very basic but it was clean. as was the washroom. Comfortable beds. What really stood out was the very helpful person on night duty.
