All wonderful, the place is away from civilization and you can have a really chill and relaxing time. There are some small hikes also around this beautiful area. Their food is excellent and the staff is so kind and aware of all our needs.

Arriving at the property under the veil of night, I was greeted by the graciousness of Ms. Sadhu, the esteemed owner of the hostel, who swiftly arranged for her dedicated employees to extend their helping hands, despite the late hour. Throughout my stay, these two gentlemen were beacons of assistance, ensuring my comfort and well-being until my departure. Nestled in an enviable location, the property boasted not only convenience but also a level of service that exceeded expectations, leaving me thoroughly impressed. My gratitude extends to the employees for their outstanding dedication and warm hospitality. Although my schedule limited my time at Vibe Hostel, I eagerly look forward to returning, knowing that a haven of exceptional service and comfort awaits my next visit.

Position: quiet area, surrounded by trees, at a short walk distance from Dharamkot and Bhagsu (if you know the shortcuts!); People: the staff was nice and efficient. Most guests were easy going, well-behaved and nice to be around and talk to. Food: they have a large menu of food (indian and international) available at any time if the day, ideal if you want to chill and eat something without going to Dharamkot or Bhagsu. Food quality, price and and portion size was in line with most cafes and restaurants in the area

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.

    We spent a few days at Thrillomania and were pleasantly surprised by the kindest of the staff. We spent some time with Rajesh who was so kind, he helped us with anything we needed help with and guided us with things to do in Dharamashala. The hostels in a great location, with a short walk into each 3 different areas of Dharamashala, which was great for us. Definitely would recommend this hostel if you’re coming to Dharamashala!

    This is the perfect hostel to stay. I fully enjoyed my time there. Big thanks for management. They were not only friendly but also caring. As a solo girl traveler, I felt very safe and like at home. The common area is very comfy and cozy, we watched movies, played games and overall had a lot of fun. The food was very tasty, and you will have enough options. The room and bed were clean and pretty well designed. You can always meet new people and make some new friends. Good people and good travelers community are there.
