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.

    This is a great comfy little hostel in a great location. Niyas, the host, is prepared to go above and beyond to help you with anything you need, and there is AC and a kitchen! The beds are also very comfortable.

    The Hosteller is located in a great location to explore Fort Kochi. The dorm was clean and comfortable, with excellent AC which was much needed. The rooftop area was a nice space to relax in.

    The rooms are well maintained and super clean and the location was accessible and the manager was friendly and helped us even after checking out provided us a space to keep our bags for a day and a washroom to freshen up. Best hostel in a prime location with affordable budget.

    Good location, good staffs. When I reached to the hostel, they wanted to suggest me another option of the lower bunk bed in another mix dormitory(Ⅰbooked 1 Lady dorm but already occupied lower bunk beds). More over, after arguing with other inns, when I was suddenly told that I wanted to come back here, I was warmly welcomed immediately.
