    Spent a couple nights here. In a female dorm first night and mixed dorm the second night. It was great to meet new people. Washroom needs regular cleaning. They should have more female dorms. Wifi connection is poor. This really needs to improve as I was definitely looking forward to using the common areas for working but the connectivity was bad. Overall recommended for budget stays.

    Zostel gives great quality service for an affordable price. Being able to check in so smoothly is amazing. The beds were fully cleaned and so was the bathroom. Luggage can be stored away early in the morning before the rooms get cleaned so you're able to explore the city without too much trouble. There is a cafe downstairs with plenty of plugs for people working to charge their laptops (the fries were even Belgian approved 😉) Lovely place to meet people and place some of the board/card games available together.

    My first Zostel experience was awesome! Met really good friends! Environment is really friendly! Staffs are really good! Cafe is also cool but little expensive. Affordable for short stay. They organize stand up comedy shows, they were good too! Overall 5 stars!❤️

    Solo woman here- Stayed here recently and had an amazing experience. Had to stay for some additional time after checking out and no one bugged me to buy anything or about why I was in the common room past checkout. It was such a comfortable and rest-easy experience. The owner was very sweet and understanding. Definitely a must visit!

    I recently had the pleasure of staying at Zostel in Madhapur, The location couldn't have been more convenient, with Madhapur metro station just a short distance away (1 KM), making it incredibly easy to explore the city. The facilities at Zostel are top-notch. The hostel is clean, well-maintained, and has a vibrant atmosphere. The ground-floor cafe is a gem, serving up delicious food and drinks that kept me fueled throughout my stay. I also appreciated the suggestions for improvement, 1. Installing a music system in the common area 2. Adding more games like table pool and foosball. These additions would only enhance an already fantastic experience. For an even more comfortable stay, I'd suggest Zostel consider introducing curtain beds across all their branches. This thoughtful addition would offer guests extra privacy and ensure a cozy sleep, especially for those who prefer not to wear upper or short clothes. It's a small touch that would truly enhance the overall experience and demonstrate Zostel's commitment to catering to the diverse needs of their guests." Overall, my time at Zostel was nothing short of amazing. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, convenient, and enjoyable stay in Madhapur.

    I came across zostel while solo backpacking, and all I can say is that the experience was amazing because all of the people who were here were carrying laptops and working, and that post job party experience was amazing, If you're visiting here, try to book your bunk before because it'll be much more convenient because most of the time it's booked while it's check in time is 12:00hrs in the afternoon. It's pocket friendly with being in the hi-tech city, it's located near the metro station followed by the cafe, which has a common waiting area which I personally used for keeping my luggage while I was visiting my office and it was kept safely. The service I personally felt was slow here, but it's not that slow that you'll complain.

    For newbies in town - yeah a good place to stay if you are here for business. For leisure and want to explore the city, this is not the right one as you would be away from the attractions and only near to the IT side of Hyderabad. Bunk beds were having a lot of spring action and shaky. They have a sufficient menu for a hostel that needs to have it. Good books collection and games available too! They have e-bike charging point and referrals to local bike hires as well.

    An amazing place to stay. The working staff are extremely helpful and the entire vibe is immaculate. The common spaces are great, and so are the rooms. The in-house cafe was also great with amazing food. We had the most fun during our stay.

  • 4/5 Siddharth C. 8 months ago on Google
    Zostel is an amazing dorm-room set up, where interns or employees can stay by paying very little out of their pockets. As previously said, the rooms are more like a dormitory with rooms that have 6 people in one and 8 people in one. The rooms are all air conditioned and kept in a very neat manner. Cleaning is done to the rooms everyday and everything is kept very tidy. The dorm stay aspect might not be a comfortable topic for most, but a stay for a night or two at such a low cost is absolutely brilliant. They also have a cafe below that serves pretty delicious food, but unfortunately takes a lot of time for it to be served from the time of ordering.

    No frill quality and affordable accommodation in Hitech City. Warning: Stay only if you are going alone or a bachelor's group. Not at all for a family stay. It has a nice dining place where you can sit and do your work over coffee or grab a novel/book of your choice and relax. The menu is limited but good. Rooms with bunker beds are hygienic and equipped with AC and fans. Bathrooms are also big with hot water facilities, Only if there could be two toilets and separate bathroom it would have been great. This is because it's a 6 bed shared space so more than one person getting ready at the same time in the morning becomes challenging. Overall my stay was great without any hiccups and would recommend it for a short stay.

    Always a great vibe, the rooms are great for the budget. The service was great. Plus it's a great place to meet people and vibe. The staffs were really friendly kind and helpful, the place also holds a great vibe. If you are a solo traveller you would love it. Really loved staying there

  • 3/5 Mayur K. 5 months ago on Google • 25 reviews
    Overall okay experience. Each dorm has only one shared washroom, location is bit far from the most of the scenic locations. So make sure if you lots of time if you are planning to stay here, you will be spending time in queues for your turn for washrooms (if dorms are full) and planning multiple location visits. Common area is good on roof with big screen and extra washroom. Parking space available, cafe is also available on ground floor.

  • 5/5 praneeth k. 7 months ago on Google
    I had an exceptional experience at this zostel. The management team truly goes above and beyond to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable stay. They are attentive, accommodating, and always ready to assist with any requests. The ambiance of the zostel is nothing short of impressive. From the moment you step into the lobby, you're greeted with a welcoming and elegant atmosphere. The interior design is tastefully done, creating a serene and relaxing environment. Overall, I highly recommend this zostel for its outstanding management and captivating ambiance. It's a true gem for those seeking a memorable stay."

  • 1/5 Piyush G. 5 months ago on Google
    It’s too conjusted, if your taking a private room, your entry would be exactly in front of dorm room and people moving in and out of it constantly. Expect better out of Zostel properties. Perfect for college students, has a good open area in ground and top floor, but doesn’t have fooseball, billiards, pool. It’s too conjusted to have any of these

  • 4/5 Dheeraj K. 7 months ago on Google
    I've always enjoyed my stay at Zostel Hyderabad. It is located in a prime area which is close to Hitech city and has good accessibility to local metro station and bus stop. The rooms are affordable and they are neat & clean. The bathrooms could be a bit dirty at times but the management is ensuring routine cleaning. Overall it is highly recommended for solo travellers where they can meet lot of new people.

    A wonderful experience living at this place... made many lifetime friends here... multiple nights spent on playing uno chatting and laughing. The owner is very chill and even lets you check in the middle of the night. Reached there at 1am in morning but he helped me a lot. The view from the top is amazing to just sit and chill.

  • 5/5 Ritesh J. 7 months ago on Google
    Anyone who says anything other than good things about this place is either ignorant or literally doesn’t understand the concept of a hostel. This place has clean sheets, comfy beds, a lovely workspace , breakfast for a fair price and the location cannot be beat. It’s superb at night and there’s everything you need in the city for a few nights. The staff are all super friendly and helpful, there’s security at night and reasonable rules to keep it respectable. Will def recommend, will return and would even consider a longer stay if there were a need. For the location and price this is a hidden gem! We had such a nice stay. Top location, super friendly and helpful staff. The building and rooms were exactly as how we expected it since everything was described online and we even got a extensive message beforehand with very useful practical information. We will definitely go back there when we visit Hyderabad again' It becomes a second home now Special thanks to Srikant and Amit

    A hidden gem in the heart of the city. I had the most wonderful stay here. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, the rooms are clean and comfortable, and the rooftop area is the best part!! It's a perfect blend of comfort, affordability, and a great location.

    One of the best things about staying at Zostel is the opportunity to meet new people from different parts of the world. The hostel chain attracts a diverse group of travelers, which creates a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere. The common areas in Zostel, such as the lounge, terrace, and kitchen, are great places to socialize and make new friends.I had a great time here spending almost 3 days.

  • 5/5 S D (. 11 months ago on Google
    I had this Zostel experience for the 1st time and it was amazing. The best thing is that you get to learn from other experiences. Shrikant and his team are just amazing in handling and making every resident very comfortable. Immensely thankful to them for their such a humble approach towards everyone. This was my 1st time and I wish to go back again and again. Lots of best wishes. Attaching few pics for interested ones…

    I recently stayed at the Zostel Backpacking Community in Hyderabad, Madhapur and I was thoroughly impressed by the experience. The rooms were not just good, but great! Everything was clean and well-maintained, clearly showing the effort put into keeping the place in top shape for guests. The services provided were impeccable, with instant response to all my needs and queries. I must commend the seamless and hassle-free booking process, which made everything even more convenient. What sets Zostel apart is its awesome community. It’s a great place to meet fellow travelers and backpackers from around the world. This really elevates the experience, and you never know who you might meet or the interesting stories you might hear. One highlight of Zostel Madhapur is undoubtedly the rooftop penthouse, which is absolutely stunning. The view of the city is amazing and it's a wonderful place to unwind. Also, the in-house games and TV provide a perfect opportunity to bond with other guests or just have a chill night in. Lastly, the location is ideal, with plenty of awesome places nearby to explore. From local markets to cafes, there is something for everyone. All in all, Zostel Backpacking Community in Madhapur, Hyderabad is a fantastic choice for any backpacker or traveler looking for a comfortable, friendly, and enjoyable stay. Highly recommend!

    Zostel Hyderabad - I must say that it didn't live upto it's name. So much of hype and expectations which I don't find in reality, TBH. Pros - budget friendly, great location, rooms are neat, good hospitality - owner always welcomes you with a smile and the place is never boring. Cons - no lift, you need to climb all three floors with the luggage, no WiFi during my entire stay of one week, weird door noise and noise from pipelines, people just keep coming and going throughout the night and they keep the lights on even at 4am which disturbs the sleep. Overall, if you want to just chill and party but ok with sleepless nights then go with this.

  • 5/5 Rishiraj M. 1 year ago on Google
    The best hostel stay in Hyderabad on daily basis. They have deluxe rooms for duos/couples and mixed and female dorms. The property owner Mr. Shrikant is very kind and down to earth. Makes sure your stay is comfortable. They have an in-house cafe that has a wide range of variety and serves delicious food 😋 The cafe has a great book collection including novels, comics, and manga for anime lovers for you to pass your time and keep you entertained while at the cafe. The beds in the dorms are comfortable. And cleaned every morning, including the washroom. And each floor has a water filter to keep you hydrated throughout the day. Each bed has a locker assigned to them also. Coming to the common room i.e which is on the terrace has a huge collection of board and card games. They have a karaoke system, musical instruments, and even a PlayStation. The common room is filled with items to have all kinds of fun activities and keep you engaged. They even host a stand-up comedy show and other functions every month and on special occasions. The place is located in a really good place with accessible street food and other stores to fulfill your needs. And finally they have friendly Labrador named Rocky, who is very playful. A stay in Zostel is something you wouldn't regret, great vibes, good services, and good people.

    It was awesome experience, if you're looking for chill in Hyderabad go for zostel. Where you will be meeting lots of new people. Room were clean and near maintained. They have in house cafe which is also very good , must try their food. It is very near to metro station so well connectivity to rest of the parts. I will be definitely visiting again for my next stay in Hyderabad. Thanks team zostel for taking care of everything ☺️

  • 4/5 Arjun D. 1 year ago on Google
    It's a hit and miss. Rooms are specious and clean . Depends a lot on your luck on how your room mates are. 3 of them in my room were heavy snorers so had a very little sleep during my stay. 1 bathroom and toilet per room is little busy. So go for it if you want to save a bit and adjust more.

    Always a pleasure to be here! A beautiful melting pot of cultures, experiences, ethnicity and worldviews...Can't resist coming back for more!

  • 5/5 Swapnil V. 1 year ago on Google
    My first Zostel experience and it was superb. Pros - 1. Rooms were clean and hygenic. 2. Hosts were very helpful and welcoming (special shoutout to Vamshi) - they will always extend help (no complaints from them as long as you follow dorm rules and respect other’s privacy) 3. Came across really good people who stayed there during my visit so I can say really good crowd (people were accommodating, very approachable and fun to interact with). Amazing vibes. 4. Terrace has common area which is again very well planned abs a scenic view at night (you can chill out with other people there) 5. HiTech city is nearby Cons - 1. Far from old Hyderabad 2. Did not provide towel, soap, shaving kit, etc. (No complaints from me as you can manage this on your own) 3. Only one bathroom for dorm with 8 beds (can have separate toilet and separate bathroom at least)

  • 5/5 Aniket 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely loved staying here. The hosts are super friendly, and the place is new and clean. Close to the office spaces of Hitech. And Madhapur metro isn't very far. They have a beautiful rooftop common area that I loved more than the dorms. The ground floor also hosts a cafe for quick food.

    I had an amazing stay at Zostel Hyderabad! The experience was nothing short of fantastic. The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful, the facilities were clean and well-maintained, and the atmosphere was vibrant and full of fellow travelers. It truly felt like a home away from home. I can't recommend Zostel enough for anyone looking for a comfortable and friendly place to stay during their travels. Thank you, Zostel, for making my month-long stay so memorable!
