Hostel Mandala

Lovely staff, clean and comfortable, great yoga class, amazing breakfast

Room by lobby was very loud

Impeccable hygiene. You won’t even find a single ant or mosquito inside the room. Extremely friendly and cooperative staff. Amazing location, walking distance from Anjuna beach. Despite being in such a prime location, once you enter the doors of the property you will feel the peace and quiet inside. Also the security at the hostel and the dorms was extremely impressive. Makes a solo traveler feel extremely safe. They also had Yoga classes in the mornings on the terrace. Truly incredible experience. Hats off to Akki and the hostel staff.

Everything was perfect.

Clean and the food is good. The host is very considerate by recommending good coffee places.

breakfast was good but more choices needed , hostel situated in a prime location . well connected to all beaches and clubs nearby

not much activities are here , hostel needs to intiate them

The property is in a great location near the beach and is kept immaculately clean. The staff are very kind and helpful, they have great recommendations for bars/restaurants. It is also very easy to organise taxis and scooter rental through the hostel. The complimentary breakfast was also stand out, so tasty and fresh every morning.

우선 너무 깨끗하고 위치도 너무 좋고(비치까지 도보 3-4분), 호스트가 너무 친절한데 가격까지 너무 좋아요

Bel accueil propriétaire accessible rapidement milieu propre et bien situé si vous souhaitez être dans le centre des activités ajuna commerces de rues bars.

The staff was great. Really caring. Seems like the hostel understands the solo traveler. I liked it a lot. Good value for money.

Good A/C in the rooms, but no AC in the common area.

The hostel was kept very clean and the staff was nice and helpful. The beds were good and there were curtains. The shower had a good pressure and hot water available. Very much worth the money.

Maybe they could show some options to do around the area. It was late october so still offseason and the weather was not so good, so it was hard to find some information about things to do.

Ambience , cleaning , homey feel, fresh

Provide 1 lamp(light) above mirror in mix dorm. And provide wash basin in common area of eating

A beautiful place to stay in Anjuna. Located in a busy part, yet is a peaceful place. Highly recommended for those looking for a quiet place. The rooms and bathroom are clean. Amrit and Mala really take good care of the guests. Amrit is a great cook, whipping up amazing dishes in minutes. However, there are a lot of pubs and cafes and restaurants around the hostel. The beach is a few minutes away.In spite of the low occupancy due to the approaching Diwali festival, Amrita and Mala took good care of me. The other great thing about the stay was, the people they recommend for car and bike rentals are great. Highly professional and provide good service. Will definitely stay next time in Goa.

The place was super clean and the staff were extremely helpful with everything. They can arrange an airport pick up, bike rental, shared a heap of good tips around and you also get a bottled water for each day. Thank you so much!

Property was very clean and well maintained. Staff is super friendly and will help you with everything. Also the owner is a great guy. You can ask him for recommendations nearby and he will give you all the hotspots. All the staff made our stay even better! Location was perfect as beach is only a few minutes away. If you rent a scooter for rs500 a day you can go everywhere!

The toilet really stinks sometimes. Even while it’s being cleaned everyday.

Your second home in Goa, great location friendly service magic breakfast and meals to buy. They have 2 private double rooms and 3 dorms - one of them for females only. Enjoy as much I do each time i visit

Neat and clean property, great maintenance, location is perfect. Beds are super comfortable and rooms are spacious. There is a kitchen where cook bhaiya (Amrit) can chef you up any breakfast, lunch or dinner item you want! Overall, great stay!

Very discipline, clean and the host is very good, he welcomes everyone in a great way. everyone is very cooperative. I feel like a family for 3 days. The other guests are also good and you can chill around and also in the terrace upstairs which have a view of the sea in Anjuna

Terrace is open till 12. It would be really great if that can be extended for another 1 hour.

Fijne sfeer, schoon, top locatie, lekker ontbijt en avond eten! Ontbijt konden we op het dakterras eten. Makkelijk om contact te maken met andere reizigers. Via het hostel konden we een scooter, transfer en wassen regelen. Ook hebben ze ons geholpen bij het boeken van treintickets.

Niks

The room, bed, AC and breakfast were excellent!

I was a bit disappointed with the hospitality, the staff didn’t really talk or make me feel welcome. Understood it was the quiet season, but I found it very hostile, the breakfast situation was very awkward (a shame because it was delicious!).

Excellent location, excellent care takers! It was a really comfortable stay and I would go back for sure!

L'ostello è affacciato sul mare. È molto pulito e attrezzato.

Il gestore è stato molto freddo. Mi ha registrata come se mi stesse facendo un favore. Non mi sono sentita per niente a mio agio! Per una notte di passaggio va bene!

Amritlal was the best host that I could have ever imagined. He is not just a good host but an amazing cook as well. Do not miss his home cooked meals. IT’S AMAZING! One of my best experiences and highly recommend if you are a couple / solo traveler.

There was nothing to not like. Everything was top notch.

Good Location, delicious breakfast, Beautiful people

Its a great place to stay in for a bachelor. The place is neat, bedsheets, bathroom everything is tidy. Staff behaviour is polite, helpful, treats well. Helps in arranging scooty, cab. If u r looking for something peaceful not noisy then this us best place to stay in. Hostel is in prime location. Very near to Anjuna Beach. You could just walk a road and go to beach to see sunrise. Hot water, neat bathroom, neat bedsheets, pillow, night light in bed, charging point in bed, a separate locaker facility have to pay deposit of 100 but its refundable. Definitely I'll go there again.

I liked everything so far. Not sure how will it be in peak season or when other guests available.

This is an exceptional property located near Anjuna beach. The host and staff are very warm and helpful. The hostel has some good guidelines that make it clean, safe and fun to stay. Very clean even during monsoons. Cool vibes. Strongly recommended.

Incredible stay with clean AC rooms and nice staff. Great value and super comfy.

Loved the property. Clean beds and toilets. Friendly and helpful caretakers

Additonal common toilet/shower areas is a necessity according to me. One toilet per dorm room isn’t sufficient as 8 of them have to share the toilet.

The ambience was very good. It's very close to the beach. It also has a parking space which is a big plus. The host gave a list of good places to visit which was very helpful.

everything was perfect in the hostel. I was lucky to have a room for me (low season), but anyway beds come with curtains, which is super nice to give more privacy. the place was clean and cosy. the Owner is super nice and give suggestions to go around. i was going to move to another region by the end of the afternoon and he allowed me to stay in the room and use all the facilities. The place is 5mins from the Anjuna beach.

nothing to point out. all perfect.

Really clean and lovely staff. Really reasonable priced food and drink. Cheese toastie and iced coffee yum. My most favourite thing hands down was my cuddles from dusty the hostel cat. One of my fave hostels

Everything good

High high vibe stay I had What a cozy and friendly home it is!!

The property was very clean and at really nice place. Staff behaviour was very good. Everyone was very cooperative. You can stay here without second thought.

Place was clean, staff lovely and location close to the beach

Cute cat

Best hostel i stayed in India! The dorms were fully AC, spacious, comfortable and clean, as well as the toilets and all the facilities of the hostel! They have 24/7 staff and security, free yoga classes every morning, kitchen for ordering food at good price, free parking and good recommendations!

Room & bathrooms were clean and comfortable, nice rooftop terrace, friendly staff. Enjoyed the yoga class in the morning as well

-

Very clean which is not the case in most hostels in the area. Cheap bike rental, and the staff was really nice and helpful. The rooftop was nice and offered a beautiful view. Wifi was fast most of the time, so suitable for remote workers. Overall good value for money.

I don’t blame this on the hostel, but I was the only one in the dorm, and the hostel seemed to be almost empty. Not great for socialising. Guess it was off season. Also, the bathroom was small. Maybe they could add a glass wall in between the shower and toilet, preventing the toilet from getting wet after taking a shower.

The dorms are clean and it has really good hot showers. Super chill vibe and Anjuna is not so busy during the off season. The staff are great and always do their best and go above and beyond. The roof terrace is a great place to workout and do some yoga. I really enjoyed the yoga class they had too.

Wish the roof terrace was open a little later as it closes around 1 am.

Liked the breakfast selection and prices were great , staff was also helpful, very clean throughout food location for the beach clubs and lots of vendors close by

Kitchen closed early and didn’t provide much like tea bags etc also not to many people while I was there but it was March so starting the low season

I loved everything about stay. The staff were very generous, and kind. The rooms were clean, the vibes and aesthetics of the place was very homely. Everytime I visit Goa, I will always prefer Hostel Mandala over anywhere for my stay and will recommend to everyone. My favorite spot was the rooftop, almost every evening during my stay I used to sit at the rooftop, enjoy the sunset, then spend hours just sitting there. It's was truly mesmerizing. Even the food they prepare are tasty and affordable. Lastly, Dusty, the master of the place, an adorable fur baby. I was so lucky that I could spend my time with the majesty.

I loved everything.

Great location and very good breakfast! The staff is super cool!

Extremely Clean and no noise

Beach view

Nothing

Beach view

Nothing

The staff are very friendly, particularly Komal, who makes sure to create the nice family vibe with the travelers who stay at Mandala. I was at the private room at it was better than expected. Nice windows for natural light, VERY clean, with a small table and chair

Nothing really

Helpful staff, clean, close to the beach and restaurants, good air conditioning, and hot water

Lovely place, lovely staff (especially the cat) perfect location. Had a lovely time, made a bench of new friends and really helpful friendly staff even the days after my stay.

The best place in Anjuna with the loveliest people. Felt like my 2nd home. Would rate it 11/10 if I could. xoxo

Komal is the best, we had an amazing time! The food at breakfast is good and cheap for the prices around.

This was my second visit to Hostel Mandala, I really like the hospitality of the host Komal, she makes you feel home. Also it's one of the most hygienic and clean hostels in the area. I would highly recommend everyone travelling to Anjuna to stay and experience Mandala.

The place is nice and location is amazing and best part is the breakfast and the person who makes it.

Place is more suited if you are looking for quite stay and work but if you are looking to indulge and interact then look for other options

Really nice and quiet space near the busy Anjuna beach. Friendly staf, good home made food, high quality chill music playlists all day long that make the atmosphere even more smooth. Good bike rental on site. Recommanded 100% !

Nothing :)

The place was amazing. The staff, food, yoga, people, location… everything was perfect. It is definitely the cleanest hostel I’ve stayed in India. Highly recommended!

The hostel and its location is best suited for all - as one who likes to party can move around and enjoy various beach clubs, eatery options, do shopping etc. Those who like to enjoy ‘me’ time, be at a quite place, hostel Mandala is best. I must say that hostel is clean (yes, this is an important aspect and need to be highlighted 😊). Also, the hosts Komal and Akki are great and approachable as they try to help you with recommendations, or any other query you may have with regards to your stay.

Nothing that I did not liked. Everything was great, however small recommendations- if we can have some 10-15 mins get together/gathering/activities for all the guests whenever possible (may be fix a day in a week) so that they get familiar with each other and the stay in hostel feels more lively and connected😊

In the center of Anjuna Beach lovely hostel with some private rooms and simple complimentary breakfast. Nice beds fresh towels hot showers. Mini shops are close-by, supermarket is 10-15 min walk. No cooking allowed but staff helps to warm up food and provide hot water. Strictly vegetarian property.

I originally planned to stay for just two nights but ended up staying for over a week. Komal is truly the heart of this place—her warmth and our morning conversations made me feel like I was traveling with a friend. The relaxed vibes, delicious breakfasts prepared by Amrit, and Mala's cheerful smile every morning made my stay unforgettable. The hostel is clean, well-organized, and has a fantastic atmosphere that feels like home. I would come back in a heartbeat!

Clean and peaceful. The terrace is the icing on the cake.

My stay was wonderful! The host was friendly and welcoming, which made the stay even more enjoyable. I met a few amazing people during my stay, and I'm grateful to the friendship formed.

The hostel is really well located and super clean! The staff is just a dream and I couldn’t have picked a better place to stay at in Anjuna. They will help you with no matter what. Just the best people. The rooftop is also a dream. There is a security guard for the night time, they offer laundry service, scooter rentals etc. the breakfast is also delicious and there’s a lot to explore nearby.

The Mandala hostel is lovely. Amazing staff who are happy to help with anything. Great location and vibe to the place. Really recommend :)

Location - 10/10 for the location. It is walkable distance from Anjuna beach. If you are party person there are good pubs everywhere. Property - Very clean, there is a terrace where you can chill. Food is delicious and home style. Staff is very friendly and polite. There was problem with AC on one day but it was resolved very next day. Met lovely travellers from the hostel and got great company there

Nothing, little pricey but i went during new years

excellent breakfast and food options ... loved it

i loved it

Great Hostel to stay at Anjuna. Very Neat and Clean, very near to Beach and other great clubs. Great Food by Amrit ji and Hospitality by Komal. Definitely my stay place when In Anjuna

Nothing

the rooms were super clean. the whole place is simple and elegant. they have a beautiful rooftop with beach view. the host (komal) is super friendly and helped us with every thing possible.

would have been good if they had drinking water facility instead of buying them.

Simple but perfect, good location, very clean, the rooftop is great, great breakfast as well and yoga session every morning…

Staff was good, very nice people. Food was amazing too. Very clean and cosy place.

Stuff was awesome, friendly and so kind I felt like home, would come any time again

The room was so clean and the hotel had common areas that were really comfortable. Amazing staff, perfect location and a place with good vibes’ guests:) The breakfast at the hostel is delicious, they offer yoga classes in the morning and you also have the extra option of laundry.

all good!

I was a solo traveler and, after 3 exhausting weeks travelling in India, this place felt like home. Yoga classes with a great teacher, really clean space, just 3 mins by walk from Anjuna beach and with the best staff that I’ve experienced in a hostel. Also, the space is great to meet friends and do plans with them, both international and Indian!

The breakfast was delicious though for me was a little bit spicy. After I told them to do it no spicy, it was all great and they were super ok to adjusting it:)

Preferably the best hostel in North Goa, if you are looking for a quiet time with Amazing view from the terrace, close to good places like Purple Martini and The Shed Overall, Amazing experience!! Cheers to the management!

My stay could have been longer, the place is amazing!!

It was clean and they listen to their customers. Staff is well behaved and very cooperative. Location is very good as beach is walking distance and all the beach views cafe's are by the side. The beds are very comfy. Host is sweet and helpful ✨

Very nice hostel with great people and nice atmosphere. Complimentary yoga-courses on some mornings with a great teacher. Only a few meters from Anjuna beach.

The hosts were great, and the property was pretty clean

The place was clean, the beds were well done and clean. The staff was cordial and professional. I liked the way things were maintained. I did not know what to expect before I checked in but I am happy to have stayed in hostel mandala and would recommend others to book a stay with them.
