We stayed at the Taj Street Hostel for four nights and enjoyed our stay. The rooms are very basic, but it was great for its close proximity to the Taj and they serve food at the restaurant that we tried a couple times. The staff was super helpful and arranged Taj tickets, laundry, and Delhi transport for us.

The homestay is an amazing place to stay in Agra. Moses (the owner) and his family are the nicest people, who will make you feel like you're at home. Moses helped us organize everything and had some great recommendations for food and things to do in Agra. I also joined his food tour (which was amazing if you want to experience some local food) and a cooking class that is available in the hostel. Additionally, Moses has some great knowledge about the history and culture so we had some great talks. I would 100% recommend this homestay to anyone who wants to be welcomed in Agra with open arms and leave with new friends for life.

Such a kind host - he himself is a hidden gem! The property has the perfect location for taj mahal visit, just 10 min walk to the east gate. It also features a rooftop with a perfectly stunning view of the taj mahal. Bed was super comfortable too, also providing a view things that you‘ll just appreciate when travelling India (like liquid soap at that washing facilities, towel etc.). Also I was checking in at 4 am due to traffic jam - and the host made no big deal about it, he made me feel so comfortable. Thank you, Moyu!

Everything was perfect, the best stay we had in India! 10/10 for : - Location, only 10 minutes away from Taj Mahal, on a quiet street - The staff is very helpful, caring and nice. - The place is very nice and tidy. - Navin (the owner) makes sure everybody feels at home and is very helpful..Thanks again for double checking with our bus where we had to meet him. We even booked a guide through them and the guide was very nice and very knowledgeable. I recommend Zostel Agra at 100%.

We loved our stay at Bedweiser. We were greeted with a welcome tea while the room was being finished cleaning. The room itself was spacious, had plenty of storage space, beds were comfortable. The location is just the best thing- upon exiting the hostel walk 6steps to the left and then take another left onto the main road and you'll end up at Taj Mahal in about 15mins. We also loved that the hostel offers very tasty and cheap meals on the rooftop terrace. Even though the kitchen staff could not explain in English very clearly what the meals were made of, we just took some time to google the meal names to find out ourselves. The staff overall is very assisting and ready to help in any way possible. On our checkout day they helped us get a decent priced tuk tuk ride. They were catching them on the street for us and negotiating the price for us. Of course, don't expect you'll get a local price, but it's definitely a decent deal. Thank you Raja and others!

All hostels in Agra

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.

Best hostel I've stayed in in a long time, The location is perfect, a 5 minute walk from the taj and a view from the rooftop restaurant you will never forget. Amazing staff, food, drinks and the private room was unreal with really good wifi and aircon, went in off season so prices were very reasonable. 100% recommend to everyone, backpackers, family's, this hostel has a great atmosphere.

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!
