Fabulous hostel. I stayed in 4 beds girls dorm and although it's a small room, it was really comfortable: the mattress, pillows, duvet, AC, curtains on the bed for privacy, big lockers, security, spotless bathroom with hot water. I had best sleep there. Also the location is great just by Visitors center of Auroville. The staff and manager are really attentive and helpful. I never expected such excellent hostel in India, so I give it 5 star. Over all, one of the best stays I had in this country, thank you very much!

It was truly a memorable experience. The vibe of the place is very peaceful and deeply connected with nature. A big shoutout to Raj, the host — he made me feel right at home and was always helpful and friendly. There were some jamming events going on in the evenings. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the location is perfect — right on the main road, close to all the cafes. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Auroville! 🙌

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.

Big hostal in Auroville and great location near first entry point. Staff there all the time ready to help or advise points of interest.So much space in common areas with lots of lounging beds on various floors and games to play.Some activities planned for some evenings.Small kitchen area with drinking water available. Dorm beds with curtains,charger and light.All clean linen. Definitely worth a visit at such a good cheap price.
