Just wonderful!

Bunglow is really beautiful & peaceful location

My husband and I stayed in the private room and our 4 friends stayed in the dorm. We all loved our stay. Anoop and his staff were welcoming, friendly and happy to help us in any way. The hostel is in a beautiful old Portuguese building and our room had character and charm and was very comfortable. The Indian breakfasts were amazing, with the something different each day (we stayed 5 nights). The location was very good, quiet area between the city and the beach.

No complaints

It's amazing property I'll definitely recommend you can go for it when you're in Alleppey. Staff is very helpful and they serve best yummy breakfast

The owner and staff were polite and kind. They maintain cleanliness and hygiene of the room. I really loved the ambience and food. It was cosy. I had a great experience there.

Such a beautiful property, owner was so kind and helpful. Great room, beds very comfortable. Lovely social spaces. Delicious local breakfast. Would 100% stay again and cannot recommend more!

Water was quite cold for the shower.

Very glad I got my stay here .. on first encounter in person it looks like u gonna bore out .. but you are not looking good enough .. the beauty of the heritage is just commendable ..

Location, ambiance and Dutch building

Nothing like that

Had a wonderful stay! The ambience was superb, making the place feel peaceful and relaxing. The hosts were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the accommodation was very comfortable. I truly enjoyed my stay and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a pleasant and memorable experience.

Everything clean and neat

Couldn't use the pool

I had a wonderful stay here. The host and the staff were incredibly kind, welcoming, and always happy to help. The dorms were spotless, comfortable, and well maintained. The location is excellent, close enough to both the beach and the city, so getting around was effortless. The beautiful heritage style building and peaceful atmosphere made the stay even more special. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and memorable place to stay.

Very clean Lovely home cooked breakfast Very friendly and welcoming staff Communal areas were nice and loads of nature so it was very scenic

I thought it was a tad expensive for fairly basic dormitories. 800 rupees for air on room, mixed. No curtains which is a shame and really impacts your experience. I have stayed at hostels just as nice, with curtains and air on, for half the price or less. Also no hot water for showers. Nevertheless the staff were so lovely and I would come back.

Excellent ambience and service. Beautiful property.

Das Haus ist sehr schön und grosszügig und an guter Lage. Das gemeinsame indische Frühstück auf der Veranda war fantastisch und eine gute Möglichkeit, mit den anderen Gästen in Kontakt zu kommen.

Für die oberen Betten würde ich mir eine kleine Ablage wünschen und für alle Betten die Möglichkeit, sich mit einem Vorhang gegen Licht abzuschirmen.

Everything was excellent! The hostel is in a good location , very clean and aesthetic! The staff are very kind and friendly and they make a great breakfast.

Anup est d'une gentillesse et d'une prévenance incontestable. Il m'a accueilli avec le sourire et comme si je faisais partie de la famille. Il s'est assuré régulièrement que j'allais bien. Les locaux sont spacieux et propres et les dortoirs calmes. Les petits déjeuners locaux étaient parfaits ! J'ai prolongé mon séjour en raison de l'ambiance chaleureuse du lieu et des personnes... Merci beaucoup, je reviendrai avec plaisir ! 🙏🏼

The house/hostel itself is really beautiful and the gardens are also very pretty. The staff were really very welcoming and friendly. The hostel seemed to attract a great group of people and the vibe was great. The price, too, was excellent value for money. And the breakfast was outstanding. This is by far one of the best hostels I've stayed in (ignore the beds below).

I haven't let this impact my score but, the bunk beds need to be replaced. I was given the top bunk and every time the guy below me moved slightly, the entire bunk would sway and shake. Because of this, I got about 3 hours sleep on my first night. I asked to change to a lower bunk but no availability so I took the mattress and put it on the floor (as did the other person who had a top bunk in my room). If this could be addressed, this would be a perfect hostel! Oh, and lockers... But this is probably me being an untrustworthy westerner.

stay was wonderful, Anoop who is the staff guided will with the itenery.

Beautiful place Beautiful Room (the bigest bed i ever sleept)

I think breakfast should be served earlyer, from 7.am as most hotéls (it is at 9.am) Should have a option that not only Indian breakfast (curry in the morning..)

I loved staying here because it had a 'Home' vibe! Would definitely come back here. Breakfast was delicious. The staff was lovely. Quiet afternoons and magical evenings if you like to be with your own company.

Ummm

An absolutely amazing place. Spent two peaceful days here. Backpackers in search of tranquility should definitely stay here. The breakfast in the morning—everything was simply outstanding!

Amazing place and probably the best hostel I've been to in all my travels. Old colonial building and its gardens are beautiful, and everything is so spacious and elegant there. High ceilings, wide hallways, big tables, lots of lovely vintage artefacts and furniture. Even the dorm rooms are so generously spacious and not crammed with bunk beds like in most places. Sturdy beds too, and very nice bed linens. Simple tasty home-made breakfast included. Superb. Thank you Anoop! I'll be back for sure

Amazing

No lockers

The charming heritage bldg. Great breakfast and helpful staff.

Nothing

The place was lovely and beautifully managed. Anu was very helpful with local information and professional

Well maintained and extremely helpful staff

オーナー・スタッフの方々がとても親切で、快適な滞在でした。 朝食が無料で、毎日、日替わりでローカルの料理が楽しめました。 滞在している人同士の交流も盛んで、朝食の時間が決まっているので、一緒に食べて仲良くなることもできます。もちろん強制ではありません。 ビーチ、ボート乗り場、繁華街、少しビーチ寄りですが、どこも行きやすいです。ビーチは歩いて行けますし、他の場所もリキシャで50〜100ルピー圏内です。 30分くらい歩ける人は全部歩けます。 都度利用100ルピーのジムも、徒歩2分のところにあります。 いつかまたアレッピーに来たときには、滞在したいと思います！

Very spacious and lovely building

Very cool hostel. Gorgeous old house. Very sweet and polite staff. Fantastic breakfast. I wish I could have stayed here longer. Hopefully I’ll come back some day!

De accommodatie zelf is prachtig en de faciliteiten zijn goed, maar de sfeer en de mensen maken het pas echt tot een superhostel. Het personeel is super vriendelijk en behulpzaam en het gezamenlijke ontbijt was elke dag een topstart van de dag. Hier kom ik terug!

La limpieza Estilo colonial Majestuoso

There is a lovely atmosphere at the hostel. Because of the breakfast between 9-10 you see all other Hostellers in the morning and will you be able to make plans for those days with people; very convenient.

The beautiful bungalow, garden and common area. Best place to relax, do your online work, read and chill.

Mosquitoes, the fact that the mixed dorms were connected with a door and only one washroom.

The property is clean and well maintained.The location is apt, close to the beaches.The washroom was neat and well equipped. Room had good natural light.Common area is too good, excellent breakfast.The building architecture is good, so are the interiors.

Nothing as such.

A place with character, very helpful staff, very comfortable.

No concerns.

De mooie tuin, de prachtige 2 persoonskamer

Niets

We just had a one day stay, but it was very comfortable as the Host Anup made it ease for us. We had a great time, we definitely insist people to go here without any doubt. The stay is clean and maintained.

The host was very welcoming and humble..the room was veryy clean.. as compared to a lot of hostels in india. The common area was so big and it felt comfortable. Also the breakfast was very tasty.. we tried puttu for the first time and very yummy it was And it was budget friendly and with such amazing facilties.

There's nothing i didn't like.

Dutch Square Hostel really feels like home. You meet amazing people here, and Azeez and Anoop make the stay special with their warmth and care. Breakfast is simple but super awesome, the rooms are clean, and the vibe is relaxed. Perfect place if you want comfort, good company, and memorable experiences.

Nothing

Vintage property with large spaces and colonial architecture with well designed courtyard full f trees. Very nostalgic experience to a bygone era.

More updates to the property will make it a gem

Anup is very helpful and he manages the property very carefully. The hostel is almost 140 yrs old and very beautiful environment. If you like peace and calm then it’s the place for you. Also we got breakfast everyday and it was very tasty. Ps : The hostel is nearby beach Thank you Anup if you are reading this…

People are really nice.

Really nice owner who is willing to help with anything. beautiful building. Good atmosphere and the breakfast was very good!

Host so kind and friendly and sweet.. nice and hygiene facilities.. lot of solo travellers and amazing experience

The place is remarkable, situated in a beautiful historical building. The private room was very spacious, clean, and comfortable. There's a big common area and a garden. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast. Definitely worth the money if you want to experience the charm of the exceptional traditional architecture.

There was no hot shower, but I understand it's not essential in this climate.

Beautiful space and hosts very nice.

Breakfast was delicious and staff were very helpful.

Beautiful property, huge private room with massive bed and everything very clean. The staff were so friendly, helpful and responsive via WhatsApp from even before we arrived. Great breakfast, lots of communal areas to hang out with other travellers. Great location, working AC in the room. Would definitely recommend!

Nothing

The property, the Dutch aesthetics. The experience. The host. The history behind this property.

Everything was just perfect. The vibe, the location, the staff and the breakfast. I would love to come back soon.

You need a bigger board in the front. Just a suggestion.

Nicely maintained. The host was very helpful. His recommendations for food and boating were top notch

- The cleanest dorm I’ve sleep in India. - Great breakfast ( They were very considerate of my dietary intolerance) - the building is beautiful. - Staff were extremely nice, friendly and helpful.
