The staff was very helpful even upon checking in at midnight they were helping setting up wifi upon checkin at 2am. The room is comfortable. What surprised me most is the breakfast as it had plenty of food to choose from including drinks like coffee the taste was excellent.

Locomo hostel is a very nice hostel close to a fruit market and very near Vile Parle train station which makes it easy to visit the city. The staff is extremely kind and always ready to help which makes this place special. The rooftop is such a plus. It's easy to socialize and there is breakfast and chai served every day. Thank you Locomo team 🙏

One of the best hostels I have ever been to. Staff is friendly, open and even genuinely interested. The facilities were, somewhat surprisingly, really clean. They have food products on stock and can also do laundry for you.

It was super clean, quiet and welcoming! You will forget it's located next to the airport. Security was also great, doors are only unlocked with registered faces. They have a water server, free coffee and tea in the kitchen room where they have everything you need to cook for yourself. They also have a nice selection of books, chess board and a lot of other games! Hot shower 24/7 People work there were super nice and kind.

Forrest Hostels felt like a small pocket of calm in the heart of Mumbai’s beautiful chaos. After long days wandering through crowded streets, markets, and train stations, stepping back into the hostel felt like returning to a quiet little sanctuary. The dorms were clean and comfortable, but it was the atmosphere that stayed with me — warm conversations, and the kind of stillness that makes you breathe a little deeper. The staff were gentle, welcoming, and the receptionists always smiling. The location is perfect, with everything you need just a short walk away, yet the hostel somehow stays shielded from the rush outside. A peaceful base in a restless city. Grateful for the stay, and I’d happily return whenever Mumbai calls me back.

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.

This is simply the best hostel I have been to in India. It is amazing! Very helpful stuff, they literally helped me with everything, with all the questions I had. Very polite and professional. There was no people who would drink alcohol or party, which is a huge plus. Nobody bothered me through my stay, very safe. I am traveling alone as a female so it is important for me. Terrace is simply amazing, I spend a lot of time there. The rooms were clean, very comfortable bed. I recommend it 100%

Locomo is by far the best hostel I have stayed in mumbai. Very neat and clean property..washrooms are extremely clean and to my surprise, the cleaning team comes thrice a day to clean the room. Very well maintained hostel and perfect stay for backpackers..Staff is wonderful and kind.. well trained and professional..They have designated guy for carrying luggage he just comes on a whim for helping with luggage. Roof top lighting’s are so amazing and evening sunset with tea and music is mesmerising.
