Xhostel Fort Kochi

After seeing the room we went to get a coffee and decide what to do. The room was gross - the shower fell directly on the toilet, the sink didn't work, the walls were stained with big yellow marks and smelled like cigarette smoke.

When we told them we decided we wanted our money back so we could go somewhere else, they refused and instead offered an alternative, equally unhygienic room.

In the end we left even without getting our money back. It wasn't worth it.

Really clean, great location, nice staff, excellent chef, must try the food there. Would stay here again in Kochi

Roon service was very bad. Bathroom was not that clean. There non availability of water for some time. Airconditioner was not working

I love this place. It's easy on the pocket, the boys that run the place are always high on energy and keep the place lively. I would happily recommend this place to everyone.

We ended up cutting our stay short.
You can find MUCH nicer & cleaner double rooms for cheaper within walking distance.
I can't speak to the bunk rooms, but double room was filthy and full of mosquitoes. Room wasn't ready upon check in so we gladly waited 20 mins. When we got into the room the AC was stuck on 16 degrees (celcius), there was an ashtray underneath the bed & tissues in the bathroom.

The staff did their best to fix the AC remote - best they could do was set it back to default (25degrees) but we couldn't change any other settings.

We only stayed 2 out of the three nights because I was sick with stomach flu but the second I felt better, we left to another cleaner & cheaper hotel 2mins away.

It's just a place to spend the night. The washrooms are very tiny and dirty. The dorms aren't clean either and have a lot of mosquitos. I stayed for 2 days there, no socialising happens at the hostel and the host also does not make any effort.

Worst hostel. No proper rooms. No hygiene restrooms. Would never recommend to anyone.
Only good thing is the location.

I stayed at the hostel for a week and I was so impressed with the experience that I decided to extended my stay for additional four days. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always gone above and beyond to make sure my stay was comfortable. The rooms were clean well maintained, and the common area was great for meeting other travelers. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and I would highly recommend this hostel to anyone looking for a comfortable and affordable place to stay. I will definitely be staying here again

About Cafe.
We just passed by the street and found a beautiful garden inside
Entered inside to find a peaceful, calm place where it was filled with old Bollywood melodies.

We good a warm welcome from the owner there. The food was served Hot and it's worth every penny. If you like North Indian cuisine, do try out thier Parathas.

This place has some energy to rejuvenate You. Absolutely loved the hot homemade servings.

A must visit place to find Peace ️

Xhostel is a wonderful place to stay. Run by a group of friends who are enthusiastic, creative and very helpful. The rooms are a bit basic but clean and comfortable. The real magic is the open hearted atmosphere, the entrance with art work and plants and of course- the rooftop- a great place to read, do yoga and chat with other guests and cats. For bibliophiles- the hostel is a stone’s throw from Idiom books. It is an absolute gem in Fort Kochi.

Xhostel is one of the nice backpacking hostels in Fort kochi. The location is perfect and it's pretty much close to all the good cafes nearby. Customer service was also nice.

Amazing place for Backpackers. The rooms are very comfortable and the rooftop is the place to be. Very homey feeling with all the small details and little art-pieces hidden everywhere. Ramees, Haroon and Eassy where amazing Hosts and really looked after us and made us feel like family.
We will definitely come back for the Carrom Board Championship.

Xhostel is one of the best backpacking hostels in fort kochi. The vibe they have is just amazing. 100% hostel vibes only. Running 3 awesome young people with a good attitude and vision. Trippy and traveling related common area decoration is very interesting.
Cleanliness and hygienic conditions are well maintained.
Highly recommended hostel for matured travelers and backpackers.
See you soon

The dorms were very comfortable and it's very close to a lot of good cafes and stores for shopping. You will find many autos too nearby. I stayed only for 2 days but Eassy, Haroon and Ramees really made the stay worthwhile. They helped us in many ways and made our stay enjoyable. Will definitely suggest this hostel for travelers looking for good company and a chill holiday.

Great atmosphere, affordable and comfortable stay. All major spots in Fort Kochi are within walkable distance.

The place isn't very good in terms of hygiene and service. The entire day I was there, I never saw anyone at the counter. So much that I had to call the multiple times to even pay. Also, the rooms are damp and the bathroom, not very clean. In all, I don't recommend it.

An excellent option for backpackers. The hostel staff is incredibly friendly. They have a wonderful terrace space with a projection screen and board games. The street in front of the hostel is also beautiful, and there are many good eateries nearby. Additionally, the rooms are decent compared to other options in Fortkochin.

Felt at home right from the time I checked into Xhostel. Not only was it great in location (just a few minutes from all the nice cafes and stores in Fort Kochi) but the rooms were neat and staff extremely helpful.

Rameez, Haroon and Eassy were amazing at handling guests and made sure we got the most of our time while at the hostel. They have done an amazing job with the rooftop and has to be my favourite!

I'd recommend it to anyone who's on budget but still values comfort, convenience and above all great vibes.

The go-to hostel in fort kochi in my opinion. Well maintained spaces, clean rooms and washrooms, a nice common room, wifi.all for a very reasonable price. The hosts were amiable people that made our stay there that much warm.

Recommended place to stay for backpackers heading to fort kochi!
