The place is very nice, nice dorm rooms, nicely done interior, greenery within the complex, newly built sitting and reading space is very nice, newly built cafe and the sitting area with a machan on top with cozy mattresses where you can relax during the daytime is very comfortable. This place is like a home to me. The owner, Sankalp is a great guy. The celebration of Holi and the Lunch was too good. This property hosts a lot of foreign tourists and travelers, making it a great place for multi cultural experience.

The female dorm was great, comfy beds, big bathroom to share, quite clean. The cafe had a wonderful vibe, very cozy, with some great background music. There are 4 adorable cats living there, who sometimes come cuddle with you while you eat, read, or simply relax on the couches... The staff was really friendly, welcoming, and helpful, making sure we had everything we needed and making recommendations on things to do or where to find stuffs in Rishikesh. The place is right in the middle of the main street, with a lot of clothing shops, organic stores, and the beautiful Ganga river few meters away :) looking forward to come back!

Beds are very comfortable. Nice view from rooftop. Top floor is a great area to work or hang out with other people. Services are efficiently managed with a mobile app. Location is very close to Secret Garden café and Blue House café, or in 5-10 minutes you can walk down to the main road and eat at various restaurants or food stalls. The riverside is at the other side of Tapovan, but still walking distance, not too far.

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.

    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!

    Excellent hostel(House of gypsy) with friendly staff, clean rooms, and a quiet atmosphere. very affordable prices for excellent facilities. 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.
