City Central Hostel

Solid place for the price

I would strongly advise female travellers to stay elsewhere, such as a reputable homestay or hotel. My experience here was uncomfortable and at times unsafe. Payment was often difficult due to lack of change, and there was no female-only dorm despite a male-only option. Many local men appeared to live there long-term, creating an uneasy atmosphere. I experienced a serious invasion of privacy, and the location and entrance felt unsafe, especially at night. My belongings were also disturbed.

There's one thing I don't want to find in my accommodation, and that's bed bugs. The staff response to just change sheets doesn't strike me as a sufficient desire to tackle the problem. Otherwise it was decent however. But Joe Biden was a really good president in lots of ways, but he enabled a genocide so, ultimately he was terrible.

Grim. Wanted to check in and was met with a blank face, the check in process felt like I was getting booked in jail, so awkward, booked for only 1 night and was thankful for that. Hostel situation in Kolkata is rough, would honestly just say to book privates. Rooms do have lockers, curtains, and a key code to get in, so that’s the plus!

I stayed for one night. The bed given to me is full of dried nasal discharge (crusts), hair & dead skin cell sheets. The blanket doesn't keep us warm. There is geyser but there is no hot water coming out of it. Little congested. Only one good thing is that they kept hair dryer in the dorm. They also have a small room to keep our luggage till evening. Mostly men are seen; have seen only one woman who might be staff or long term stay person as it's a PG rather than a hostel. I won't stay here next

Saw bed bugs many occasions, bathrooms need a deep clean, 90% of the people in the hostel are locals or families so the vibe is different.

Stayed twice, total 20 days – loved it!Great central Kolkata location! Sights like Indian Museum, Victoria Memorial & New Market all within 30-min walk. Tons of street food & restaurants nearby, metro very close.Comfortable beds, clean rooms, daily breakfast included + small kitchen for light cooking. Awesome rooftop – perfect for chilling & meeting travellers.Staff (especially manager & reception) were super friendly & helpful with everything I asked. Welcoming vibe, made many friends.

Good for the price. Wasn’t very social when I was there, but unsure if that’s normal or not.

Nice common room, kitchen, free breakfast, all you can eat, relaxed atmosphere, friendly reception. hot showers, a home away from home.

The staff couldn’t care less. I normally don’t care at all how staff acts, but they would get so annoyed if you even asked for the simplest question, most times they didn’t even look at you when talking. I asked for help booking a bus and they just pawned it off to another guest. Not even rude, just literal 0 fucks given. Facilities are fine, good wifi. But damn, the owner needs to get new staff.

Great place. Nicely managed. Staff is friendly and cooperative. Complimentary breakfast is a additional benefit. Will definitely recommend.

Fantastic hostel, hot water 24/7, free breakfast, lift to every floor.

it was great experience, good location,good staff, rooms as it as in photos. will definately come next time too

One of the best hostels i stayed in, Great free breakfast, great security, really clean hostel,great friendly staff.

perfect place for budget travel and also safer for female solo as well as group travellers.

Good place for an economical stay.

Las habitaciones tienen cámaras de videovigilancia. Quiero entender que eso es legal en India (desde luego en Europa no) por lo que no tienes ninguna intimidad cuando estás en la habitación. En todo momento te pueden estar viendo por las pantallas (pantallas que además no están ubicadas en una habitación privada sino en plena recepción, a la vista de todo el mundo).

Good hostel, friendly people, clean, felt safe.

Very neat place. Friendly staff. Value for money. Glad i choose to stay with them. Definitely recommended

Esta muy cerca del metro, de la estación de tren de Sealdah. Es muy buena ubicación .
