Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's 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 little more.

    Nice smallish hotel that feels like staying in a budget chain hotel in Europe. Room pretty clean and comfortable with a safe. Staff were nice, breakfast good and the complementary snacks/water/soft drink station on each floor came in really handy. Centrally located so easy to get to most tourist attractions and <5min rickshaw/uber to Connaught Place/Circle where we found many options to grab a drink and eat at night (no hotel restaurant).
