Good hostel with neat and clean private room. We booked the triple sharing room and to our surprise the third bed was not a makeshift bed or just a mattress like other hotels. It was a proper single bed with enough space for us to move around. Staff was also polite and helped us with our luggage and shared good tips about Rishikesh.

Really loved the location as well as the atmosphere. Staff and owners are all such lovely people, had more the vibe of a homestay than a hostel. Close to lovely restaurants and shops as well as to the Ganga. Can only recommend!

The location is unbeatable, you have the best Ghat as your backyard and great places to eat all around. The chill vibes of the area are awesome, don't be surprised if you end up staying way longer than you thought. The staff is really nice and make plans every once in a while for people to join.

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.
