    Positive: My stay at The Hosteller Munnar was truly memorable. The property is beautifully located amidst nature, giving a unique experience of being directly connected with the surroundings. I stayed in a room where, every morning, the clouds literally came right outside, creating a magical view and a peaceful start to the day. The atmosphere felt refreshing, calm, and very natural—perfect for anyone looking to disconnect from city life and soak in the beauty of Munnar. The hostel itself has a warm and welcoming vibe, ideal for solo travelers like me. The combination of amazing nature views, comfortable rooms, and a friendly environment made my stay very enjoyable. I would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Munnar for an authentic and unforgettable experience. Negative: The menu prices felt a bit on the higher side and could be reduced slightly to offer better value for money. Also, the entry route to the property is quite challenging, especially around 6 PM when I visited. About 5 kilometers before reaching, there was dense fog and no clear direction signs. Since I was alone on a bike and had no mobile network for maps, it was very difficult to find the way. This is an important area for improvement to make access easier and safer for visitors.

    Terrible Stay

    kirti s.group

    Terrible place, cost is more than a resort in Munnar. We got locked out of room at 4 am and was able to get in at 10 am!! Non-cooperative staffs. We didn’t have water bottles and when checked in their cafe, they also didn’t had water bottles. There were multiple blood leaches in the area including the washrooms.

    Hi Shubham, first off we really appreciate you taking some time out to review us so soon after staying at The Hosteller. After thoroughly reviewing your concern, we believe that the claims made in your review are not fully justified: our location and provided amenities are clearly mentioned for guests’ reference, and we encourage all guests to review this information before booking to avoid any misunderstandings. Regarding the locked-out situation, please note there is no lock on the dorm entrance since dorms are shared spaces. We have no record of you reaching out to our team about the incident at 4am. As per our conversation, you mentioned you left for a trek early in the morning and returned around 10am. We also checked our washroom—no other guest in your dorm has reported any issues with leeches or otherwise during your stay. To ensure seamless support, we use our Web Concierge app, Glu. This platform lets guests submit requests, provide in-stay feedback, and raise concerns—whether related to housekeeping, maintenance, booking requests, or other needs—with ease and transparency. It helps us enhance real-time communication and ensuring responsive assistance throughout their stay. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we look forward to welcoming you back soon. – Team TH.

    We had a wonderful stay at The Hosteller! The property is clean, comfortable, and has a vibrant backpacker vibe. What truly stands out is the location — it's perfectly situated for exploring the breathtaking Kolukkumalai region. The staff were friendly and helpful, making the overall experience smooth and enjoyable. Whether you're here for nature, adventure, or just to unwind, this place is a great choice. Highly recommended for travelers looking to explore the scenic beauty of Kolukkumalai and beyond!!

    The Hosteller Munnar

    Hi Alexander, Thank you for sharing your feedback about your recent stay with us. After carefully reviewing your concerns, we believe that some points mentioned in your review may not be entirely accurate. Please note that we do not provide buckets at our hostels, and this is mentioned across all booking platforms. Similarly, we do not offer packaged drinking water, in line with our commitment to sustainability. Additionally, all plug points in the room have been checked and are functioning properly. The same room has accommodated other guests, and no similar issues have been reported, making it difficult for us to verify this concern. Our Customer Experience team also attempted to get in touch with you multiple times for clarification but was unable to connect. That said, we would still appreciate the opportunity to understand your experience better. Please feel free to write to us with more details. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we hope to welcome you again for a more comfortable and enjoyable stay. - Team TH

    Poor Stay

    ruthvik v.solo

    Stayed for 3 days—honestly, a bit underwhelming. The hostel is quite far from Munnar town, so without your own transport, getting around is a challenge. There’s no food nearby, and the hostel only serves vegetarian meals, which are overpriced and not worth it. The view is decent, but the location feels isolated and uneventful. By the end of the day, the remoteness can start to feel depressing. Wouldn’t recommend unless you’re looking for complete seclusion and have your own vehicle.

    Hi Rutwik, Thank you for sharing your feedback following your stay with us. We want to emphasize that we take all concerns seriously and are committed to addressing them with the utmost professionalism. However, we are of the standpoint that the concerns raised in your review are not accurate and do not reflect the true nature of the situation. It is important to note that our exact location is mentioned across all booking platforms to establish transparency and help our guests to make a well informed decision. Our in-house cafe only serves vegetarian meals and the same information is mentioned, we encourage guests to view these details before making booking to avoid such disappointments and surprises. We strive to create a welcoming and lively atmosphere, but we also know that the overall energy can depend a lot on the engagement of our co-travellers. While we do our best to foster a positive environment, we understand that sometimes the collective energy might not meet everyone's expectations. Post our telephonic conversation, we would like to clarify - upon checking we understand that you completed your stay and no issues were highlighted to our team. - Team TH.
