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.

I had a wonderful stay at Indian Culture! The suite apartment was beautiful, comfortable, and had everything I needed. The bed was especially cozy. There's a lovely little café on-site where I enjoyed fresh fruit salad and coffee every morning. The hosts were incredibly kind and helpful—they even arranged a taxi for my next destination and made me feel truly welcome. Highly recommended!

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!

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.
