The Hosteller Goa, Candolim, hotel in Goa Velha

Located in Candolim, within less than 1 km of Candolim Beach and 1.7 km of Calangute Beach, The Hosteller Goa, Candolim provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool and free WiFi throughout...

I have stayed many hostels and Zostels. Hence I would compare the vibe between those and the hostellers Candolim. First of all the rooms were nice and clean. They responded to my room service requests quite quickly. The location is quite close to the beach, so it’s good. However, I was travelling Solo and when I reached the locationI got to know that there is NO LIFT and you have to pick your luggage to all floors wherever your room is, could be 1,2nd and Idk how many floors it is. And there no staff kept to carry your luggage. Then, I have mostly seen the common areas being the life saver for hostels, but it was not the case here. The common area was outside/ at the ground floor of the building (the rooms starts from the 1st floor of the property) making it bit difficult to actually bring people together and create a friendly environment. All in all it was a fine hostel. No issues with wifi. I could work without any disturbance.

Green Nest Hostel, Baga - Arpora, hotel in Goa Velha

Located in Arpora, 2.9 km from Baga Beach, Green Nest Hostel, Baga - Arpora provides accommodation with a garden, free private parking and a shared lounge.

The property has the best view with Lush green garden and area with amazing and friendly pets. The pets are friendly and cute. Pradeep da is so helpful and hardworking who takes care of everything we need. The property owner’s are Gem. Amar uncle is so friendly and caring and his son Jackie who is very chilled guy and helps always in any way. They make us feel like we are at Home and let us enjoy in anyway we can. No boundaries . I always love to stay in the same property whenever i am in Goa and i believe this is the best hostel in Goa as i ve been to other hostels too. However nothing can beat the environment and the view in the center of Goa.

All hostels in Goa Velha
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.

    Cheap and cheerful. Off the main road so quiet but easy to get around by walking. I had an issue with the first room (smelt a bit musty) and they immediately put me in a different room. This is an Indian (local) hotel but I felt very welcomed as a westerner.

    We had a very pleasant stay with comfortable rooms and accommodating staff. Shiva and the people at the front desk were extremely helpful and made our stay comfortable. They made it possible for our rooms to be close by and that was HUGE! Overall the stay was fabulous! Great location and friendly staff. Do check out their other locations as well!
