This is one of my all time top favorite hostels I’ve ever been too. Joeys was the first stop in India and first stop on my trip. Immediately Suhel, Nitin, and Kabira and the rest of the staff took me in and showed me a good time in the city. I did the walking tours in Old Delhi and the Tibetan market, and some shopping areas - everything from the food recommendations to where they suggested I visit in the city was amazing. Best food, good people, and location that felt safe for Delhi - couldn’t ask for more. The guys there are always there to help and want you to experience Delhi how it really should be seen!!! Stay here if you want to get a good start to your trip and then try Joeys hostel in Agra too when you want to get to Agra. Also they did help with buying a train ticket and getting a SIM card and you can ignore the other reviews. They do a good job to make sure that you’re well accommodated and you have everything you need.

This place was beautiful & they have thought about every last detail. There is so much information available which would be particularly useful if this is your first stop in India. The highlight though was the very kind & helpful staff who were so friendly & welcoming. The room was spacious & spotlessly clean & the common areas were stunningly decorated with so many plants & flowers. Although the location was a little far out of the main area, it was easy to take a metro or a tuktuk if we needed to. Having access to a local gym downstairs & a restaurant onsite was a bonus. We were also able to arrange a local laundry service who picked up & dropped off at reception. We loved this place so much we extended our stay twice & would not hesitate to stay here again if ever returning to Delhi.

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.

    Great location for us - we were only staying one night, and it was in the middle of the two stations we arrived/departed from. Great info before you arrive to keep you safe in getting to the hostel. Super clean, hot shower, comfy bed, very quiet. Rooftop was great for breakfast, delicious omelette.

    Probably the best hostel in Delhi. Superb team of friendly, helpful staff, a very sociable atmosphere, with close proximity to Laxmi Nagar metro station, from where you can explore all of Delhi conveniently and cheaply. Lively street outside has a great selection of budget street food and events/tours are on offer most days. The perfect base from which to explore Delhi.

    Stayed in "6-bed mixed dormitory room", quite cheap and practical stay in Paharganj! Clean and comfy beds, located in a quiet backside street away from noise, big lockers, well-functionning hot water, electric plugs and wi-fi. Good budget hostel located near many restaurants and only one minute walking from metro Ramakrishna ashram marg. Thanks!
