I really enjoyed my stay! I stayed in a shared room — it was super clean, with a spotless bathroom. Everything felt fresh and new, with no strange smells. But most of all, I want to highlight the incredibly friendly and welcoming staff! I was truly touched when they kindly agreed to store my suitcase while I go on my pilgrimage to Kedarnath. Thank you for your warmth and care!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is 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 bit more.

I recently stayed at Madpacker 2.0 and had a fantastic experience. The hostel was clean, comfortable, and had a friendly atmosphere. The staff were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about the local area. I especially enjoyed the small get-togethers they arranged every noon and night, which made it easy to meet fellow travelers. Overall, Madpacker offers excellent value for money and a welcoming environment. Highly recommended for budget-conscious travelers!

Excellent hostel(House of gypsy) with friendly staff, clean rooms, and a quiet atmosphere. very affordable prices for excellent facilities. Highly recommended for budget travellers seeking a comfortable stay. the food was good with a variety of options. the river was a walkable distance from the establishment. the staff helped with additional arrangements for travelling and places to visit. rooms were private, quiet and safe. I would recommend it to even working professionals who want a quiet getaway and work in peace.
