At the hostel, rooms are equipped with a balcony. A seating area is accessible to all guests, while some rooms have a game console. All rooms at Zigzag Homestay are fitted with a shared bathroom and bed linen.

Our visit to Zigzag homestay was the perfect start to our India trip and definitely gave us a flying start. Moses is the perfect host and helped us a lot with everything from booking bus tickets and transport in Agra, to give tips on where to go and where to stay, as well as answering every questions we had about India and the culture. He also cancelled our booking for free when we missed our first flight to India (and we rebooked a few days later). The street food tour in the evening Moses took us on was one of the highlights! I would highly recommend this homestay to anyone.

At the hostel, the rooms have a wardrobe. All rooms at HOT - House Of Travellers Taj view are fitted with a private bathroom and bed linen.

Mankameshwar Temple is 6.6 km from HOT - House Of Travellers Taj view, while Tomb of Itimad-ud-Daulah is 8.2 km from the property. The nearest airport is Agra, 10 km from the hostel, and the property offers a paid airport shuttle service.

We came to this place which was near to one of the greatest monuments in the World, Taj Mahal. HOT provided a great hospitality which we will never forget. Also the hotel is situated in a great location in which we can get access to transporation to many places. They provided great rooms and service. They also had a place where you can sit and read a lot of books that they provide, they had board games, and also a seating area with a projector where you can watch movies. If anyone wants to store cold drinks or any foods they have a small fridge, in which you can keep your things. All of these are situated just below the reception area. Talking about the rooms, they provided us a good room with everything what we needed. On the plus side, they also have a cafe at the rooftop where you can sit and have a nice cup of tea. You can also have a view of the Taj Mahal from the terrace. We really appreciate the staff who welcomed us to stay there and enjoy. Thank you, HOT. Truly a place for travellers.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The hostel is fine for backpackers. The location is perfect, it is only 4min walk from the Taj Mahal, so you can comfortably walk there for the sunrise. The staff was great and the teracce with Taj Mahal view is definitely the main benefit. We also appreciate the locker possible after checkout. The food was great, the prices are a little bit higher to the average but still fine.

    Joey's hostel is located right near the Taj Mahal, you can't get much closer & is very convenient for your visit. The view from the rooftop is really nice. Stay here if that is what you are looking for - great location & cheap prices!

    Stayed in the dormitory - It's cheap, compared to a few other hostels down the road. So if you're really looking to save ₹100 or ₹200, this is your place. However, my recommendation is to spend that extra amount and get a much much more comfortable stay. They do provide lockers with keys.

    Budget accommodation with a superb location. Just few meters from Taj Mahal gate. The room is nothing special, the window couldnt be open, many mosquitos and hot room. BUT - you are going for a cheap budget hostel so you should expect it. If you are looking for something cheap and close to Taj Mahal, it is good choice for you ;)
