Backpackers Villa Mumbai

Dont trust the reviews, they are fake!! I had a terrible stay, this is not a backpackers hostel!! There are people living there full time being highly disruptive through the night, the place is dirty, no toilet paper provided, no locks on dorms,I paid for a female dorm and had to leave at 3am because the women were shouting in the room, turning all the lights on, and arguing with me over turning a fan on?! Had to pay full price for a private at 3am, the vibe is weird, didnt feel safe

Had an amazing stay at BVM. The owner, Raj(i think) is a very calm, easygoing person, and even when an incident arose, he solved it amicably, with so much grace. The people staying there-very accommodating, sharing food, inviting me on a temple run, and took me around Mumbai. We ended up doing some free style karaoke to 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai' one evening. Great location, stone's throw from Metro.Very close to airport. Wholesome, would definitely be coming back, and would highly recommend.

location of the property is convenient and accessible to public transport, very easy transfers to airport are available from here, property is nice and cleanly maintained. the host of the property were very helpful. overall loved it

I had a comfortable and professional stay at Backpackers Villa as a solo traveler. The staff were courteous and helpful, rooms were clean and secure, and facilities were well maintained. The location is convenient and safe, making it an excellent value-for-money choice for independent travelers seeking reliability and comfort.

I have to say everything was above and beyond the call of duty. the owner and his sons and staff were exceptionally caring and competent. with real human compassion and hospitality. well worth the very good price. period.

Lovely Stay, Courteous staff and cleanliness was worth a mention, nice common area, very lively , good use of colours , location right next to the metro station .

Cool property , very colourful and clean, washrooms were great , had a wonderful time with the other travellers

Good option near the airport though the city centre is about an hours travel, facilities were good, clean washrooms, strong aircon, they had a standup comedy show whislt me there and was quite a night .

Had the most amazing time here, the community hall was always buzzing with guests, nice clean place, special thanks to deepak for taking care of us, will def dropin again .

Good hostel, very clean and good staff , stayed just 1 day but was a good experience

unfriendly staff

Truly loved my stay! I loved the overall vibes, the amazing common area , full of colours and very vibrant …. It’s a great place to chill out at. . And I made friends and acquaintances with the guests and the volunteers too, it’s such a warm social hostel ❤️ I’ll miss them , I booked the 8 bed shared room. If you value privacy, you may need to upgrade rooms.

A mixed experience at this hostel - a shame as I went by previous reviews, which didn't reflect what I saw. One or two of the staff members were helpful & kind, another was rather rude. No locks on dorm doors, & a pair of shoes & towel went missing, only to turn up later!? Great location for airport & metro stop close by, but a long journey into the City Centre & Southern Mumbai.

Nice hostel for arriving or departing. Has everything and some other people arriving and departing as well. Has a guitar n Phenomenal staff! Awesome hostel will definitely come back for another stay!

Incredible hostel, most wonderful staff super friendly and helpful, comfy bed clean loos. Air con in all the rooms and a friendly wonderful vibe. Couldn’t recommend more!

BVM Hostel was my first stop in Mumbai after the airport and I couldn’t have chosen a better place. The staff made me feel super comfortable, especially Raj who helped me when I was dealing with a lost card situation! 😅 Thanks again and I’ll see you next time!

We were happy to do an early check-in but the guy that did our check in haven’t adress one word in the whole check in. He was very cold and not helpful at all. Also, we are far away from the principals attraction. It tooks us 2h to get there. There is a few restaurant near the hostel and some caves but that’s it. Also the AC close during the night and some times in the day so it get very hot in the room.

Had a great stay at the villa Hostel, Amazing staff, Raj was very helpful from the early checkin to guiding and providing us with a list to do things in Mumbai, the slum tour was great and very reasonable compared to the ones available online, helped us keeping our bags for the day , let us freshen up and use the washroom even after our checkout, Great hospitality and lovely people managing the hostel , thanks to the reception guy as well was very polite .Highly Recommended !!

the hostel itself is great!! everything was clean, the beds were very nice, a lot of privacy, locker and nice temperature to sleep in. they even had a big common area with activities like board games , great kitchen and excellent wifi . the staff was also really nice. i wouldn’t stay in mumbai again at this time of the year due to the rains , but exploring one day was good and i would recommend the hostel.

Friendly and helpful staff. Amazing location for sight seeing and very close to a train station. Brilliant aircon.pretty chill, would stay again
