The hostel has a cozy vibe, clean and comfortable rooms, and a warm atmosphere that makes you feel at home. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, always going the extra mile to make your stay memorable.

Hidden Monkey Stays in Darjeeling is like finding a hidden gem in the mountains. It's the kind of place that feels more like crashing at a friend's cozy cabin than a hotel. The funky decor gives off major chill vibes, and the staff is as friendly as they come. Plus, it's right smack in the middle of all the cool stuff in Darjeeling, so you can stumble out and explore in no time. If you're up for a laid-back, budget-friendly adventure, this spot's got your back(pack).

Had an amazing stay at Hills tale hostel.The location is calm, just walkable from bus stand and market and the owners and staffs were incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout my stay. One of the highlights was the dorm room—it was spacious, well-lit, and the beds were super comfortable, offering a great night's sleep. The room was also kept very clean, and there were lockers for securing valuables. It was a perfect environment for relaxing after a day of exploring. I would definitely recommend Hills tale for anyone looking for a fun, social experience on a budget. I’d happily stay here again.

All hostels in Darjeeling

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.

    The owners were helpful and humble. Also like to mention the Manager Mr. Vishal was guiding us every moment throughout the stay like travel and sightseeing. Cleaning was up-to-date. Best Hostel I have ever visited. Surely one should visit Hidden Monkey 🐒 whenever planning for Darjeeling.

    The best stay experience one could ever get in Darjeeling! Everything was so good about this place, would love to go back again. The rooms are so clean and beds are super cozy. Also the manager Bishal is an amazing host and an added gem to this property. The best hostel for solo travelers without any doubt.

    it was a nice female dorm , equivalent to any other hostels in market and 1/4th the price. So i would say it is providing more value than we are paying for. The rooms are spacious and toilets are clean and anyways you can work with staff to get any facility by paying a little bit tips. Nice for people who are looking for a comfy stay in a backpackers hostel.

    Had a great experience. Neat and clean rooms with exceptional and friendly staffs and owner. The location is a bit far from the mall road but trust me, it's worth it. I only had one dinner here, it was delicious. Ultimately the best hostel stay I've ever stayed in.

    Initially it's a bit confusing to reach to the hostel. However, it's actually in a great location close to the happening places of Darjeeling. The room was clean, but too small and felt a little expensive to the quoted price. The cafe on the first floor serves good food and has great views of the Sleeping buddha. Highly recommend this place for all backpackers.
