Jaipur Jantar Hostel

Very nice hostel with a wonderful atmosphere! The rooms are clean and very cozy. There is a lovely garden seating area outside. The location is very good, it's quiet but you can get to the center very quickly. Appy deserves a special mention. With her wonderful manner, she makes your stay pleasant and makes you feel at home. She ensures, that you don’t miss anything. She is also an excellent cook and spoils you with delicious, authentic Indian food. And if you want to experience something extraordinary, you should definitely go on a food tour with her! Thank you dear Appy for this unforgettable stay!

This really is the best Hostel I have been not only in India but also in my whole life. The facilities were super clean and working really well, the atmosphere was great, people working there are one of the kindest I met when travelling. The place is really relaxing and peaceful, it seems to be like a pause during your trip in India. The traditional breakfasts and meals prepared by them are the best I had in India so far and the prices were not expensive at all. If you are coming in Jaipur you have to go Jaipur Jantar Hostel to experience this. I will always remember the days that I spent there and I can’t wait to get back to meet them again!

I've spent a really nice moment there. First, every bed of the dormitorie's got a lot of space : you can be seated on it without having to bend your head. Each bed has is on plug, light and ventilator. You have also a curtain for your intimacy and a better sleep in case someone turn on the light. You don't have to ask for a hot shower as it's ready to go. Breakfast offered a big choice for a nice price. The place is very clean and the people there very nice with a good atmosphere, in particular Appy who is as happy as expected and always ready to share and to help. And it less than 2 kilometers from the train station wich is quite convenient. Thanks again for all those good moments on only few days, hope to see you again soon, maybe joining you on your festival 😉

All was good for me

We really likes our stay at the hostel. We felt really welcome. It is really hygienic, pretty close to the city centre and the facilities were good. The food served by Appy was really good! We went on the foodtour with a Appy and we just loved it! The way she guided us through the city was so nice! She is really passionate when she talks about it and she shows it with pride. She led us to the different stalls and told us a lot about their history. The food she let us taste was really good and after the tour we knew we would't have to eat for the rest of the day. When in jaipur this is one of your to do's. It's a really nice way of experiencing the city in a way we couldn't have done without her, big thank you!

The staff is like an extra family. When I needed help to get a new train ticket, Himanshu offered immediately to take me there on Appy's scooter. Appy also invited me to her home to meet her mum and to chill for a while. Lovely new friends 🧡 The hostel: good food, good bunk beds, cozy comforter, private bathroom, you can handwash your clothes and dry them in the sun. Cozy common areas and cleaning staff also friendly and efficient. I'd love to come back!

Can't think of anything

Jaipur Janstar was the best place we stayed at in India. Appy and Himanshu were the best hosts along with Asha. They went above and beyond to brighten our days, organised a food tour for us and even drove us to the store to get some supplies. They cook amazing food, and involve you in the process. On our last night we did a cooking class with Appy and learnt so much about Indian food. There is a hotel next door that does buffet breakfast as well

The vibes of this place are blissful.Most friendly and helpful caretaker(Appy) and staff ever, lovely and great first impression of the hostel. Everything about the hostel was exceptional. It was clean, stylish, roomy with excellent service in where we had dinner. Food was good and great value for money and service was attentive and efficient.

I stayed in the 6-bed room. Bed was confortable, bathroom spacious and pretty clean. The staff was adorable (shoutouts to Appy who was available to help out). Being a hostel, I got the chance to talk with other travellers around the table in the hostel's front yard.

I didn't like that I spent only 2 nights here.

The hostel is such a lovely place to be at and had such friendly staff. Eve was so helpful and Appy paneer rolls are unbelievable. The beds were super nice and I got lucky with a bottom bunk.

There is a nice hotel attached to the hostel and only one reception. So gets quite busy when you need to ask questions.

This hostel is exceptional. I arrived from Delhi feeling tired and drained and then I saw this place I was so happy. I have traveled a lot over the years and stayed in many hostels and hotels; I prefer hostels as they are less boring and usually contain the most interesting people - Jaipur Jantar and attached hotel (Jai Newas) are easily of a finer quality than many I have stayed in in Europe. It's clean and well serviced. The staff and family owners are very friendly and the service and additional services such as Laundry are excellent. The restaurant has very good food at very good prices; you only need to go outside to eat at other places if you really want to. One thing I noticed; the quality of the work on the building itself is of a craft quality - no shortcuts, no cheap fixes. I work in UK construction so I know. I honestly cannot rate this place highly enough and is thoroughly recommended.

There was nothing I didn't like.
