Very friendly staff and hygienic rooms. Navin was especially helpful and guided me well through the area.

The location. It's both good and bad. Good because you get the railway station and metro very nearby. CP is very close as well. If you're willing to walk a little, it's great. But if you want a cab/auto to go at these places or anywhere else, you'll need to pay a big amount or wait for long. Autos/cabs are a little hesitant to come as there is a jam almost always due to the nearby railway station.

The people there were so nice and supportive. They really care about those who are staying there. I felt very well looked after. There was a bookshelf where there were many books that were relevant to India in many different languages that were available for the people to read. I found it very useful. They also do a free tour of the city. All you need to pay is transportation if you use any. I didn't have time to join it, but my friend said she did, and she enjoyed it a lot. There was a water filling station where you could fill your bottle or just take a drink. I found it very convenient. I took some time to find the place because I originally was on the other side of the New Delhi station. Once I found my way to cross the station, it was very easy to find the place. If lost, just ask people where the Ara Kashan road is, and they will give you a general direction.

Zostel is a very reliable, clean and well located hostel in Delhi (and other spots in India). I stayed with them 10 years ago and after arriving in Delhi this time and experiencing dodgy hotels, which weren't safe to stay (with lots of fake reviews on google and booking.com!!!) I was so happy to discover Zostel again on our midnight search for a new place to stay. They helped us out with a room in the middle of the night and when returning back to Delhi from Agra a couple of days later we decided to stay there again instead of the meany terrible or highly overpriced places around the airport. It's an easy access to the train station and the organised cap from the hotel to the airport was on time, even at 3am in the morning. They were very accommodating and the rooms comfortable, a great hot shower and a clean space. If you are looking for a hassle free stay in Delhi, do yourself a favour and stay at Zostel.

We didn't have any issues, nothing we didn't like or stood out in our short stays.

Staying at Zostel Delhi was awesome! The place had a cool vibe - cozy yet modern, with spotless facilities and comfy rooms. The common areas were lively with fellow travelers, perfect for mingling and making new pals. The staff were super friendly and knew all the local hotspots, hooking us up with awesome recommendations. Will miss their hospitality. Overall, my experience at Zostel was fantastic, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable and affordable stay while exploring new destinations. A HUGE SHOUTOUT AND SPECIAL MENTION TO SAMEER & BUNNY, For being such amazing hosts and wonderful beings.

Well, nothing that I didn’t like about the property. It was great experience for my 1 week of stay.

I really enjoyed the unique culture at Zostel. Unlike other places where people just check in, go to their rooms, and check out, Zostel offers a different experience. Guests can play games like Ludo, chess, poker, and 8-ball pool, or dance and chat with strangers. If you form a group of four, they even guide you on a tour around Delhi, where you only pay for the tuk-tuk and food. I was particularly impressed with the staff's helpfulness and willingness to assist. Whenever I had an issue, they were ready to help, whether it was getting my watch repaired, finding nearby laundry services, or getting a trim. And yeah, there is a microwave oven and refrigerator in zostel where u can keep any food you ordered or brought from home. You keep it cool and can heat it when you want to eat it.. The best part was the late-night talks on the rooftop. You wouldn't realize it's 4 in the morning until you remember you need to sleep.

If you compare it with some other places, the facilities and cleanliness might feel like it's lacking a little bit. But the good culture,safety, and cleaning schedule eyeshadows it. It would have been better if dorms also had lockable keys to enter. And if the cafe had a little more variety of food.

The executive suite room was really nice. It was quite big, clean, and nicely air-conditioned. The lobby was also nice and the staff were very nice. There was a cafe downstairs which felt clean and the Wi-Fi was alright. We could charge our phones and order tea and coffee in the morning.

I don't know that I would've stayed in a shared room, it would've felt a little bit not super nice with the toilets and that kind of thing. But with a private room, this was perfect.

The staff was very friendly and even in the morning helped me find and negotiate a price with an auto. The service is second to none. The room was clean and exactly as shown in the pictures. The rooftop terrace provides great views of old Delhi and the cafe food is simply delicious. The proximity to New Delhi Station made it super easy to reach the station in time for my train

Being an old property, the lift is a bit old and stopped frequently but not a dealbreaker

Standout staff, all extremely friendly and helpful. There is a guided walking tour through old Delhi as well for free highly recommended. Hostel in a crazy part of Delhi but it’s a cool experience to see. Good+safe food places around just ask staff. Shoutout to Mauritius Sam

Location might be a bit much for some people’s first stop in India but it’s worth it to meet people as it’s pretty social and zostel is great. Just a few beggars outside but nothing that bad really.

They allowed my parents to freshen up which is too much appreciated. They have clock room where luggage can be kept , it helps while you are in transit to other location for short duration, It’s clean and have many food options also. it’s near to railway station

It’s in Paharganj which is a bit unclean and too much dusty but then it’s near to station.

The best thing about Zostel is the vibe of the place and the people, both who work there and those who come to stay there. It is such a homely space. Be it with your friends or family, it definitely is a safe and a comfortable place to live in. The rooms are not so big, but that posseses no inconvenience of any sort. The cost is also not high, so it'll be quite affordable to students also. Zostel definitely played a key role in making new friends and memories.

The one downside is the lack of proper canteen/food area in the place. Some general menu items arw available but the choices are quite limited. However, there are some great places near the property that can be explored for local food. Also, some people might find the condition of the bathroom/area not upto high standards, but I would suggest not to compare it with a five star high end place considering that the stay is affordable.
