Worst hostel experience I have had. Placed in a different building to those on the pictures - no common areas/atmosphere. No signs for “quiet hours” so kept up until 1.30am 2 nights in a row - asked to be moved rooms but apparently every bed in both 5 floor blocks were full? Cold showers - again complained and was told “no one had ever flagged this up” and “you have to wait for it to warm up” - untrue. One shower between 6 people in 1 room. Lack of security - reception is often u...

Good clean hostel with lots of facilities and amazing roof top terrace. paid extra for a room in the main building but it didnt have a window or a fan. So should have been a cheaper room in my opinion.

There was a mouse in the room and he ate a part of 2 of my bags. Asked to change room, a man snoring all night, came back to the first room and mouse still wondering around. Really bad experience !

Madpackers need to realise something that is extremely important… just because accommodation is labelled as a hostel and cheaper than others doesn’t mean you have an excuse to have bad hygiene! It doesn’t cost much to replace old and dirty bathroom supplies and bed sheets ! This property falls extremely short of western hygiene standards. There are windows looking out to staircases with bright lights on all night and they don’t provide curtains. There is no common area ! Just a dark rec...

Terrible Experience - Avoid A complete rip-off. For ₹4,500/night, you get a tiny, smelly room with no TV, wardrobe, or lift. The photos are totally misleading. The hygiene standards are non-existent: the property reeks, common area sheets are dirty, and staff actually hang their underwear in guest areas. To top it off, you have to fetch your own food delivery from the reception and there’s no in-house cafe. Easily one of the worst properties in Rishikesh.

It was quite loud at night until around 2:00, and the building has very thin walls. The bathroom also smells bad. However, the location is great, with nice cafés nearby in the center of Tapovan.

I don’t understand all the good reviews. + Location is great. - Solo room and bathroom were dirty. Bed sheets smelled bad, there was mold in the bathroom and the shower was leaking heavily (I would rather not think about the ecological impact). - Staff was average. Not the nicest I met. - Loud people talking in the corridor after 11 p.m. and very thin walls. I didn’t change rooms because I checked in pretty late and I was exhausted, but I left first thing next morning.

Dachterasse ein Traum, Lage supi, Badezimmer sauber. Man konnte Lüften und es gab eine AC. Leider hat die Bettwäsche nicht so gut gerochen wie im Madpackers Jaipur.

really, really loud. might be a good thing for some, but loud music from 9am to 11:30pm, room walls are really thin and the rooms smelled, sometimes horribly, from the sink. maybe you can have more luck with your room. but the rooms were very clean and cleaned daily :)

The door for room 102 didn’t close properly, giving a direct line of sight from reception to my (curtain-less) bed when the foot was open. Not only was this a security risk but made me feel very exposed and the noise was unbearable. Despite mentioning this to the staff nothing was fixed. In addition bugs were found in the bed directly next to mine! Rest assured I packed up my things and left as soon as possible.

The hostel was okay. Clean and fine but some lack of facilities at the property - no fans in the dorm and it got really stuffy at night. Plus no curtains on the bunks atleast in the mixed dorm. The terrace had great views.
