So I had a bit of a nightmare getting into India first as I applied late for my visa (my fault) 🙃 then had delayed flights and arrived super late (2am) I felt so bad but Rish (the manager) was an absolute legend and went out of his way to make sure I not only got to the hostel safe and sound but got my taxi driver to find some food for me before arriving and getting his friend to let me in! He helped me so much along the way with any questions and has been super friendly. The people I’ve met at the hostel have been absolute gems too we all settled in effortlessly and had such a nice time. The hostel is tucked away on a river which is super relaxing and surrounded by nature. It has a real nice vibe about it I would definitely recommend coming to stay here if you’re visiting Kochi :)

The stay in Santa Maria Hostel was wonderful, I felt like home. The staff consists of very good and caring people. Nikhil knows how to take care of everything, he showed me the beauties of the place, he helped me with everything. I will never forget this stay and will definitely be back again soon. ❤️

My first impression was not the best, the guy sitting in the reception had a hard time smiling and when I asked him questions he made feel like I was a burden?? Luckily the rest of the staff was super friendly and chill especially Gokul made my stay truly special. He was really friendly and helpful guy. He told me all the good places to go visit and eat he even brought my newly wash laundry to my room. When a had to leave to wrote down my travel plan to munnar. The hostel itself has really good facilities and is nice and clean

Location was great, perfect distance from shops and restaurants but still slightly secluded. The host was very friendly and welcoming, also really helpful in planning day trips around the area, he gave great advice and recommendations. The breakfast that was included was delicious. The rooms were clean and the AC worked.

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.

Apart from the clean accomodation. There is an entire community built here just to cater to a backpacker's experience no matter where they are from. Hidden inside it's very peaceful situated away from the city's chaos.

A clean, comfortable and cosy hostel that is great for backpackers or short termers. Location is also good as you can walk to the metro station and the jetty.
