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.

    Glad we found this place. As solo female travellers we felt safe and welcomed at home. Hanan, the owner is a good guy and helped us get best prices for other services. Basic yet clean rooms, a superb lake view and hot water even with a tub. A good place to stay in Kashmir and close to downtown. The boats taking you from shore to the hotel take 5 mins which are an extra relaxing time. Good family run place to stay on a budget and live the floating house experience

    This hotel (I figure: probably the chain) fills the gap between on the one hand questionable <3000₹ (30€) accommodations and on the other hand extremely pricey western >20000₹ (200€) chain hotels. A backpacker from Europe, I needed a clean place to crash after some stays in different hostels.

    The most great thing about the property was the location. It is located in a wry rich area of Srinagar. Most of the places are quite close by and walking distance. Dal lake, zero bridge , Lal chowk are near to the hostel. The hostel has a great vibe and is very clean.Irfan bhai at the hostel is very helpful and kind. The hostel is very safe for solo travellers (especially female) . All the beds have curtains for privacy. All the rooms have heater installed . Bathrooms and rooms are very clean.

    The property is located at good location and has excellent views of the mountains. It is walking distance to Shalimar and Harman park as well as Dachigam National park. The hosts John and Jimmy are super helpful and will give all the possible support and safety needed to a solo traveller. The food is amazing and the rates of both accommodation and food are best. The shared Taxi is easily available to drop you at Dal lake, Lal Chowk or Airport. If you want to enjoy time in Srinagar in peace and budget. This is a place for you
