Hammock Hostels - Bandra, hotel in Mumbai

Set in Mumbai, Hammock Hostels - Bandra features a garden, shared lounge, terrace, and free WiFi throughout the property.

My stay at hammock hostels was exceptional! The hostel was extremely social and the staff always made sure that you were comfortable and enjoying your stay. They were also extremely happy to help with booking onward trips and giving advice about travel in India. The facilities were also very nice. The hostel ran a few fun evening activities during my stay which really made the experience and brought everyone together! Breakfast was also delicious!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is 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 bit more.

    This is simply the best hostel I have been to in India. It is amazing! Very helpful stuff, they literally helped me with everything, with all the questions I had. Very polite and professional. There was no people who would drink alcohol or party, which is a huge plus. Nobody bothered me through my stay, very safe. I am traveling alone as a female so it is important for me. Terrace is simply amazing, I spend a lot of time there. The rooms were clean, very comfortable bed. I recommend it 100%

    Locomo is by far the best hostel I have stayed in mumbai. Very neat and clean property..washrooms are extremely clean and to my surprise, the cleaning team comes thrice a day to clean the room. Very well maintained hostel and perfect stay for backpackers..Staff is wonderful and kind.. well trained and professional..They have designated guy for carrying luggage he just comes on a whim for helping with luggage. Roof top lighting’s are so amazing and evening sunset with tea and music is mesmerising.

    This was my first krazy solo hostel experience and i must admit it was really good. This place is ideal for budget travellers who are looking for clean and safe stays. The staffs are truly helpful. The location and the property is safe for travellers which is helpful for people who have late night flights. Overall, the stay was worth the money.
