Pokhara Backpackers Hostel

I booked 4 beds sharing AC rooms which was super good and fully valuable. Super clean linen, pillow covers, clean towels and daily deep cleaned. Washroom was inside the room and cleaned every day. Along with the the bathrooms were equiped with toilet rolls, shower get, shampoo and hand wash liquids. The breakfast served was different every day. Excellent and not compromised with the menu selections. Limited options but best! nothing at all.

This was a wonderful hostel experience. I stayed here for two nights bookending a trek, which the staff helped me to organize, were knowledgeable about the mountains nearby, and all seemed genuinely interested in asking about my experience afterward. The facilities here are fantastic, both in the rooms, which are clean cozy and comfortable, and in the common spaces, where the atmosphere is warm and friendly, and the vibe is social - definitely a place to get to know new people over a meal or a game of pool. The food is delicious as well, both the dinner and the top notch included breakfast. 10/10 would recommend this hostel.

Beds were super comfy, activities in the common space each night (like karaoke) were lots of fun, and the staff were very helpful and amenable. Common space didn’t have any quiet areas especially after 5 pm— nowhere to work or take a zoom call from. I also thought the breakfast was rather bland.

I had a truly wonderful experience staying at this hostel during my time in Pokhara. Without exaggeration, the hospitality and kindness of the staff—especially Vivek, Sandeep, and Junifer—made my stay even more memorable. They were always welcoming, approachable, and genuinely willing to help with recommendations for sightseeing spots, restaurants, and local experiences. The rooms and bathrooms were well-maintained and clean, the beds were very comfortable, and the overall atmosphere was peaceful, friendly, and inviting. The location is also excellent—close enough to Lakeside that you can easily walk to cafés, shops, and the lake, while still being in a quiet area where you can enjoy a restful night's sleep. If I could offer a small suggestion, enhancing the rooftop area would make it an even better place for guests to unwind after a day of exploring. It would also be great to have more social activities, such as movie nights, walking tours, or family-style dinners, to encourage guests to meet, interact, and create connections. These small improvements would add even more value to an already great experience. Overall, I had an amazing stay and would gladly return in the future. I highly recommend this hostel to solo travelers, couples, and backpackers looking for a comfortable, welcoming, and memorable place to stay in Pokhara. There wasn’t much that I disliked about my stay. The overall experience was great, and the staff, cleanliness, comfort, and location were all excellent. If I had to mention a small area for improvement, it would be the rooftop space and having more organized social activities for guests. A more inviting rooftop area and activities like movie/karaoke nights, walking tours, or group dinners could make the hostel even more enjoyable and help travelers connect with each other.

2nd night, when I came back from outside, I saw, another man is sleeping on my bed. Time around 2 am. I told the security, but result was very bad.

The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The property is well-maintained with a pleasant atmosphere. Overall, it offers excellent value for money.

I love how nearby the hostel with pokhara lakeside, its just walking distance. The room is okay and the bathroom is big. Hot water running well. The breakfast was basic and okay. I saw alot of packages offer by this hostel. The hostel only like 5 minute car ride from Tourist Bus Stop, The staff at the cafe is not that friendly.

I really liked that the hostel staff were friendly and helpful. The premise were clean and the hostel organised evening activities for entertainment. Nothing

Location is on point. Hospitable and friendly owners and staff. Clean room. Good food - props to the cook! Huge common area where you could meet fellow travelers. Will stay here again for sure. Recommended!

Really great value

everything ! perfect and comfy

Great value, awesome free breakfast and good vibe. Food was fantastic at the restaurant too.

I like a bed, breakfasts, cleanliness, and the hospitality of the staff. This hostel is worth staying in Pokhara. I would like to revisit here someday in the future. N/A

Very nice facility, great location and comfortable amenities/furniture The power went out a couple times but nothing big and not for long at all; maybe 5 mins max.

I can’t comment on the dorms, but the private rooms are great. Good beds, hot water, ceiling fan and AC so you can find what works best for you. My room didn’t have a view but it did have lots of windows for natural light and good curtains for privacy. The hotel is at the end of lakeside. But I like a lot of the restaurants nearby and don’t mind walking. Others may prefer a more central lakeside hotel. There is a lively atmosphere in the evenings but the bar area is far enough from the hotel rooms that it was quiet in my room. The filtered water is on a floor stand and the dispenser is slow, so it’s difficult to fill your bottle. They should put it on a counter or somewhere accessible like all the cafes do. The breakfast is a great deal if you’re staying in the dorm but as a hotel guest, standing in line and waiting for a plate isn’t the best experience. You don’t get to choose which food or how much. During breakfast the milk wasn’t replaced for coffee. But you can go to the bar and order espresso based drinks which are priced the same as most cafes and are tasty.

Odd check-in, moved four times before getting settled into dorm room | slow to get locker, employee had to go through box of unlabeled keys (1 bunk = 1 locker) | clean, good WiFi, hot shower, towel, soap | breakfast included (7-10am), different each day | music in common area is too loud at times | food for purchase (12-9pm), outside food prohibited |

location, common area, free wifi & drinking water free luggage storage whn leave for trekking upper bed for dorm is too hard to climb up since ntg to hold others thn staircase it self

Travellers can stay at a very low cost. They have shared room and provate rooms as well. The restaurant of the hostel is very nice and relaxing. I had booked for 4 persons shared room but booking.com didn't ask me about the number of male and female checking in. Neither did the hostel asked me the same in whatsapp. So when we arrived at 4am in the morning, we found that there were a shared room of six people available and it was a male shared room where two males were already there. So, we had no other choice but to check in for that night.

At first I was disappointed in my room because I had upgraded for a view, but I was not that impressed (my friend who had paid less seemed to have a better view)...but then the clouds disappeared, and I had the most INCREDIBLE view of the Himalayas. I will never forget the view. One morning, my friend and I just sat there drinking coffee and enjoying the view! The hostel was great, people were lovely, breakfast was delicious and different every day, and the location was excellent. I would definitely recommend this hostel! I hope I get a chance to go again! I was very satisfied with my stay!

Convenient location, great vibe, and friendly staffs. None.
