Grham Hostel & Cafe Kasol, Katagla

The attention to detail and the location it’s peaceful and really helpful hosts. The balcony is pretty spacious for the rooms and a good view of the river.

The property is so well maintained and at the right spot to have a pretty view of the valley! The hosts are very attentive and their cafe/ food is also really good. Plus point for all the games and music, common room is great to meet others.

A very cozy and clean hostel with amazing food overall. The highlight was definitely the stunning view from the hostel! It’s a little offbeat, but absolutely worth the visit.

food is amazing , loved the hot chocolate and the dogs are very friendly. the owner is very sweet ,loved talking with her

Dogs

Too much restriction...too hard to get at the location. Not friendly staff

Most of it

The path from the road to the actual guest house

Lovely place to stay near Kasol. It’s away from the main town but has amazing views. Facilities are great and the cafe does a great thali! Lots of cute dogs too

The view

Path leading towards property. If possible make a guide video to reach location at morning and night.

Anand and Jiban were great hosts. Food was as clean as it gets - definitely recommend all their dishes!

The best stay in katagla, kasol to stay as a traveller exceeding all the expectations, I was here for a month and the hosts Anand, Ashish and Upasana were incredible friends I found. Food is delicious and the staff behaviour is very very nice. Very homely and the vibe is amazing. We together made nice memories and I'll never forget this stay my entire life.

Nothing

Upasana, Anand and Ashish are warm and amazing hosts. The cafe food is delicious. The location is scenic and a calm oasis amidst the chaos of Kasol.

beautiful property in the sense of view and all recommend everyone to stay here whenever you are coming to kasol no matter what with families or friends . they have all type of room with nice staff

I had a fantastic experience at Grham Hostel! From the moment I arrived, the host made me feel incredibly welcome and were always ready to offer helpful tips about the local area. The hostel itself is clean, cozy, and well-equipped, with comfortable common areas. I loved the relaxed, friendly atmosphere. I’ll definitely be back the next time I'm in town! Highly recommended for anyone looking for a budget-friendly and social place to stay.

The place is one of best for a peaceful stay! The hosts Anand, Upasana and Ashish were just amazing! Food was delicious! Rooms were clean! The crowd there were refined too as their hosts! Those evening spent in their cafe was one the best evening I have spent outdoors till date! Over all an excellent experience of a staycation!

Nothing that you can figure out.

The vibe, the view and the people. The stay was very peaceful at the hostel. I stopped by for a day to get some rest, ended up staying the whole week. Ashish, Upasana and Anand are really cool folks to hangout with. I'm missing the Sequence tournaments we had at nights :-)

The Hosts are friendly and caring. Amazing food, good vibes! Just the perfect place for friends and solo travelers!!

Best place for staycation or workation, Deliciuos food Cozy rooms and dorms. Good view from hostel

This place is pure magic—think Christmas vibes all year round! Tucked away in the peaceful village of Katagla, along the serene Parvati River, it's the perfect escape from Kasol’s usual chaos. Upasana, the host, is an absolute gem who makes you feel like family, and her adorable dogs? They’ll steal your heart in seconds. The rooms are spotless, the food is delicious, and the coffee? Hands down, the best you’ll ever taste. Looking for a cozy, affordable, and feel-good stay near Kasol? Look no further—this is it!

There’s so much freedom to simply rest and relax. The food is delicious and you won’t need to ever leave. Amazing environment.

The place is located in a calm atmosphere near a river but not too close to the river as well. The overall atmosphere was very pleasant with a lot of dogs to keep you company 😊

The way to the place was not that good with really narrow routes, only one person can go at a time. Also there isn't a proper route to reach there.

I had a wonderful stay at this hostel, thanks to the warm and welcoming host. The comfortable atmosphere and clean facilities made it feel like a home away from home!

The location, Host of property, ambience, food. Their chilli garlic cheese maggi is super duper hit.

Nothing as such.

Staff and location along with amenities the best location in katagla. And the prices are very reasonable,cafe food is amazing. The hosts Upasana Anand and Ashish showed few offbeat locations as well. Overall it was a great experience.

The rooms and dorms are comfortable.

Felt like home

I came here to stay for a day And ended up staying 4 days. Hosts are very friendly and have very good knowledge of local area. Food 10/10 (must try).

Everything about the success of this trip of mine was rooted in Grham. I couldn't have found a better place for my first solo trip. Its run by dedicated and super friendly people. The food is so good and not too expensive. People take special care of the cleanliness of the place. Even the guests were super cautious in keeping the common space clean. And views, such an amazing view from any part of the property. I worked for almost two weeks from here, so I can vouch for electricity and Wi-Fi. They also have generator just in case. I found my grham in the mountains, away from home. Beautiful, beautiful property. I would like to stay here again and recommend this to all my friends.

I can't think for anything in particular. There were hardly any instances when I felt any negativity. Can't remember if I dislike anything about the place.

Staff was really cool and helpful, would like to mention Ashish who was there for everything !

The location

I liked the views from there and surroundings which are peaceful.

Currently the bridge is broken and hence you need to trek like 2 kms to get to the hostel from the main road. I didn't like the fact that there are too many house flies in the room and the cafe which makes it so irritating to stay peacefully and have food.

Just perfect! 🤍

This is literally the most hygienic hostel I have ever seen.The owners and staff are very friendly and the food is delicious.

Fabulous landscape. Comfortable and clean rooms. A walk of 15 minutes. Peaceful.

I came here for a day and ended up staying for a week! The rooms and bathrooms are immaculate. The best thing about Grham is that it feels like a home away from home. The folks who run the place care about you and treat you like family. The food is healthy and fresh! The location is great as it's away from the noise and offers peace. Best hostel in Katagla!

Well where do I begin, I initially planned to stay for only 2 days but ended up staying for 10, that should tell you everything you need to know really. The dorm I stayed in was clean throughout my stay, the bed was warm and comfortable. The cafe has delicious food at great prices too! I ate here everyday almost The people I met here were nothing short of immaculate vibes lmao. The hosts are very helpful, friendly and overall the nicest people. You can ask them for advice for your travel/trek plans around the area, solid advice they'll give Easily 10/10. Personally coming back ASAP

Ashish Bhai, Anand Bhai & Upasana Di took great care of us, the food here is homely and yet lip smacking...i can never forget the slow chill mornings with valley view sitting in hostel cafe and eating tastiest paneer parathas for breakfast. The rooms are clean, beds are newly built, it has proper hostel facilities and owners are super friendly and does not impose any restrictions Cafe is inside the hostel campus and people chill here till 2 am late in night, it's a vibe of its own.

WashRooms could have better facilities like shower gel, soaps etc.

Cleanliness and the homely atmosphere. Hosts were really nice and very hospitable!!! How can I forget Grham food…best food in Kasol!!! Whatever we tried over these three days from Grham menu and delicious!!!

Nothing as such

The words can't express this wholesome amazing feeling ,as my trip started from here I just booked it for a day and then at the time of leaving I was there for another 3-4 days. Starting with the location which is super fantastic ,mesmerizing views , easy to reach ,access to multiple shops nearby ,transportation and what not ,the space is very chilled out ,rooms,bed,linens and cleanliness are more than up to mark. Let's talk about the open spaces which are designed and developed with full of heart and love love love , within the stay there is enough ample space where you can chill out,have A beer and an evening snack. Foremost you get so many dogs as companions if you feel lonely anytime which you probably won't. Coming on to hospitality ,the best of best part which brought me back again to this place is my bond getting strong on the very first day and Anand , Upasana , Aashish - HATS OFF to you beautiful souls for creating such a place where inner soul meets peace and happiness ,cool winds ,snow capped mountains are as beautiful as you guys are ,although the chef's are really good but in case they are absent by any chance these guys would make the best ones for you anytime I miss you fellas and hope to see you very very soon where we would again sit in the super cool cafe area ,have some rum ,talk all night ,play cards,sing songs and just be in our own vibes. One word - "LOVE"

The rooms were clean and the staff was friendly, they also have 5 adorable dogs on property.

The trek before reaching the property. It gets a little complicated if you have more luggage. But other than that overall it's perfect.

The staff is so friendly and helpful. Food is also very 😋 Room are very clean 👌👌

The property itself is beautifully maintained, with clean, well-appointed rooms that offer all the comforts of home. I was particularly impressed with the attention to detail in the room’s decor and amenities. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the view from graham was breathtaking. thanks to the outstanding property owners Ashish,Upasana & Anand . They were incredibly welcoming and attentive, making sure every detail was perfect. Their hospitality made me feel right at home.

Flies

The food was delicious, bed was incredibly comfortable and the staff went above and beyond to make our experience cozy. The view from the property was the best in Kasol, a plus point adding to our trip.

Reaching the property is a bit tricky given the short hike upwards.

A Home Away From Home: My Experience at Grham Kasol, katagla. Grham Hostel, nestled in the heart of Katagla Kasol, proved to be just that – a cozy and welcoming abode for my journey. Stepping into Grham Hostel, I was immediately struck by the warm, inviting ambiance. The common areas, with their comfortable seating and charming décor, felt more like a living room than a hostel. The rooms were impeccably clean and well-maintained, offering a peaceful retreat after a day of exploring. Grham hostel’s location is truly unbeatable. But what truly elevates Grham Hostel are the hosts – Anand, Aashish, and Upasana🫶🏻🙌🏻 Their warmth and hospitality made me feel instantly at home. They were always happy to offer advice about the area, share stories, and even join in on some fun activities. Their genuine kindness and willingness to go the extra mile made my stay truly memorable. It is more than just a place to stay. I highly recommend Grham Hostel to anyone looking for a charming and welcoming base to explore the magic of kasol.

Our stay at Grham hostel was absolutely amazing. The guys are doing a wonderful job keeping the property clean, comfortable and friendly. We got help with our luggage, were allowed an early check-in and late check-out. They were always there if we needed anything. Special thanks for awesome breakfasts and ginger tea with milk. Highly recommended, one of the best places we've ever stayed at.

The property is located on one of the higher hilltops so the views you get are simply stunning (possibly the best in the area). The hosts + staff are all friendly and approachable and do their best to make you feel at home. There are game nights you can indulge in, and the food which is made to order, is scrumptious. This isn’t too far from the main city so travelling to and fro is pretty straightforward. The rooms are also well maintained and clean which is always a plus. All in all, there’s very little to complain about. This should be on your radar if you’re looking for a peaceful stay in the heart of nature in and around Kasol.

While the property is fantastic, there are two minor problems that we faced. One, there seemed to be frequent power cuts (which honestly was not a problem considering how pleasant the weather was), probably on account of the weather. Two, the location is a pain to reach. Reviews mention a minor trek and they’re not kidding - it’s quite a hike up to reach there and this can be challenging if you’re trying to head back (say later in the night). That said, these aren’t deal breakers and I’d still choose to come back and stay here.

I think I loved everything to the very last bit, the people, the location, the host, and obviously the 5 Wonderful Dogs.. Also, the in-house kitchen serves some great food, really loved the Aloo Parathas and Coffee. It was a time well spent and Can't imagine myself staying somewhere else when in Kasol again

We had a fantastic stay at grahm. The property is beautiful with a fantastic view and great amenities. It was clean, comfortable and Upasna was lovely. We really enjoyed the food as well. The interiors are great and the hosts are extremely helpful. Thank you to the entire team of Grahm!

"This property is truly outstanding! From the breathtaking location to the impeccable hospitality, it's one of the best in the area. They excel in every aspect, from accommodation to food. Their attention to detail and warmth make you feel at home. Even after a late trek, they surprised me with delicious Food. The cleanliness and decor are top-notch, ensuring a cozy and peaceful stay. I highly recommend visiting this gem for an unforgettable experience. Many thanks to the hosts for their incredible hospitality!"

The hosts and their army of dogs were lovely. Made us feel like being in home. They assisted us with everything, from carrying the luggages and making us food whenever we wanted. They also took me on a small trek nearby and also suggested things to do around.

We had to trek for 15 mins to get there but almost all the places in that area was in that way but since i came with my mom, it was a litle difficult for her but other than that, nothing.

It's a huge property with lots of places to hang out.The facilities and services were top notch even it was raining for the whole time during my stay,there was a power backup which was a plus point. Food was good and pocket friendly.

The way to reach to the property is a bit tricky,I hope the team will fix it in comming days.

Location is amazing. Perfect for solo trips. A little confusing the first time.

Nothing to dislike as such 😀

Everthing was great, loved the stay here...the location is quite secluded from the busy part of kasol and has 4 charming dogs.The place has an amazing view, we can just laze around for the whole day without getting bored and they serve the best ginger tea.Anand bhaiya and upsana made sure I had a great time. The rooms are spacious and clean.

Nothing specific

This place is beautiful and you can see amazing views from your room. This hostel is situated at katagla and the surroundings are very peaceful as it is away from the main market. The food is awesome as they serve homemade food. All the facilities are available. The people who owns this place are very friendly. If you are planning a peaceful weekend away from the chaos, I will definitely suggest visiting this place.

As this place is newly built, there were issues of electricity especially in the morning and the service is little slow. But I believe they will work on that

The staff is good with hospitality and engagement. And helpful as well.

Short on menu for food. They are working on it. Price of the food items can also be little on lower not too much low but reasonable.

The owners were very friendly and they helped me out with everything

Great location! Staff is very helpful and very hardworking, available any time for any additional requirements. Upasana and Anand are exceptional people, meeting them was a very good memory. Would be visiting again, Do visit them to have a amazing time in Katagla.

Liked everything, if they can improve anything from their current thing, that'd be a bonus!

Everything

Nothing.. it was perfect.

Clean, comfort and peace with a astonishing view. Staff is very understanding and helpful. You guys should visit here.

.

The View is so Great from their open Garden. It's happening yet so isolated from other properties hence giving the 'living in nature' ; "Jungly Vibe". The Food is super tasty there. Literally 'The Best' 'Bread Omelette'! The staff is very nice. The property owner Upasana and Andand Bhai are always ready to help and uplift!

Love the hospitality It's a great place for solo travelers or travelling in a bunch Upasana and Anand Are Best Host I have ever met

Firstly, the route was like a trail. The rooms were really affordable and spotless. The beds were really cozy. The washrooms were really really clean . And as soon I reached there I got 4 cutest and well disciplined dogs ... One of them came with me to show me my room ... But didn't even enter the room . The cafe gave the whole vintage vibe and after a really long time I found a gramophone. I spent reading books and listening to music via the gramophone in the cafe. The staff was really nice . I felt really safe and with people around them . One was even a girl. I would suggest this to every solo traveller. I can't wait to visit again.

Dogs and food

Nothing

Nice and clean place with a great view. Affordable prices for the food and staffs were very polite and helpful. Bit of a walk from the main road like 400 mts but its totally worth it.

I like the view , I like the facilities, what nice food , luxury facilities in the room , such a very nice hostel, and I'm so happy for a very fantastic place and facility , Thank you so much Grham hostel kasol , for the wonderful facility.

Nothing , Everything is okay

View from location was very awesome, Good hospitality. Feels like home. Food was very tasty and room are also big and clean. It was a nice experience to stay here.

I recently stayed at the Grham cottage in Kasol and it was a fantastic experience. The cottage was cozy and well-maintained, offering a serene escape in nature. A special thanks to Anand, Aashish, and Upasna for their exceptional hospitality and helpfulness. Their warmth and knowledge of the area greatly enhanced my stay. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Grham hostel.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Grham, and I must say, it was a truly memorable experience. The breathtaking views surrounding the property and the beautifully set up dorm made for a stay that exceeded my expectations. From the moment we arrived, the owners welcomed us with warm hospitality, making us feel right at home. Their friendliness and genuine care for their guests added a personal touch to the entire stay. It's evident that they take great pride in ensuring their guests have the best possible experience. One of the highlights of our stay was the well-curated music selection in their cafe. The choice of songs created a delightful atmosphere that kept us hooked for hours. It added a unique and enjoyable element to our time spent in the cafe, creating a perfect backdrop to savor the moment. The combination of the stunning surroundings, the thoughtfully arranged dorm, and the exceptional service provided by the owners made our stay at Grham truly special. I highly recommend Grham to anyone seeking a memorable getaway with a perfect blend of scenic beauty, comfortable accommodations, and friendly hosts. It's a place that not only meets but exceeds expectations, leaving you with cherished memories and a desire to return.

Nothing specific to mention

Cancelled my booking at the last minute, just before 30 mins reaching the property

Getting to the property is a bit of a hike but hosts arranged for your luggage, but ya once you reach the place, it feels worth it :) Hosts both Upasana and Ashish were probably the best hosts I have met across all d hostels all around the world. Their food, my god, it’s worth the wait, it was too good. Nothing fancy, nothing overloaded with butter or ghee but taste was blissful. So hands down, I would suggest this property to anyone out there

Grham, the newest property in Katagla near Kasol, is a breath of fresh mountain air. The unparalleled mountain views from every corner of the property redefine tranquility. I stayed in the 8-bed dorm at Grham & it exceeded expectations in comfort. It's surprisingly cozy, offering a restful sleep. The clean bathroom adds a refreshing touch to the stay. What's even better? The WiFi speed is great, ensuring you stay connected seamlessly. A winning combination of comfort and view – highly recommended!
