I had such a wonderful stay at Time Traveller Hostel! The place has such a cozy and welcoming vibe, with kind-hearted people all around who make you feel right at home. The pool is a perfect spot to relax and unwind after exploring, and the friendly pets add so much joy and warmth to the atmosphere. It’s more than just a hostel—it’s a place filled with good energy, great company, and unforgettable memories. I’d definitely love to come back again! 🌟

I had a fantastic time staying here and felt truly comfortable throughout my stay. It’s such a cool place to unwind and a magical spot to connect with nature. The host was incredibly friendly and went out of their way to help me with so many things, from arranging a scooter rental to sharing valuable insider tips about the area. They genuinely cared about making sure the guests had an amazing experience, fulfilling all requests and ensuring everything was perfect. I’d love to come back here again and would absolutely recommend it to anyone. Thank you for an unforgettable stay!

It was truly a memorable experience. The vibe of the place is very peaceful and deeply connected with nature. A big shoutout to Raj, the host — he made me feel right at home and was always helpful and friendly. There were some jamming events going on in the evenings. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the location is perfect — right on the main road, close to all the cafes. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Auroville! 🙌

    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.
