    The rooftop cafe with a spectacular view of the 180-degree panorama is like being on top of the world, but with a much better menu!

    Noise disturbance at night.

    We had a great time staying at Live Free Hostel. the dorm room was comfortable, with bunk beds, a fan, AC, and an attached bathroom with a geyser. the staff was welcoming and the food was delicious. the hostel has a lively atmosphere, especially during weekends, and attracts all kinds of guests. We enjoyed the perks like free dinner, movie nights, and complimentary chai. it was a vibrant and affordable place to stay in the Laxman Jhula area. Cons: Absolutely nothing! .

    Key location facts: Good for the amount you pay and clean. Food too is good and with hygiene around.

    The staff had a lackadaisical attitude. They didn't bother to make an effort when I requested for an early check-in.

    We had a wonderful stay at Live Free Hostel in Rishikesh. The location was perfect, close to the action but quiet in the evenings. The staff was helpful and approachable, always ensuring our needs were met. The dorm rooms were cleaned daily and the porch area with a hammock was a great spot to relax. Despite some minor issues with the hot water and spotty wifi, these were easily manageable and didn't detract from our overall experience. I highly recommend Live Free Hostel for a pleasant and affordable stay in Rishikesh.

    I recently stayed at Live Free Hostel for my solo trip. The staff were amazing, always with a smile and ready to help. The facilities were clean, comfy, and felt like home. They offered free dinners, yoga classes, and a chill-out area. The rooms were tidy and quiet, perfect for a peaceful rest. The location was excellent too, close to Lakshman jhula with easy access to transportation. Thank you for a smooth and amazing experience!

    I do recommend this hotel.

    Nestled amidst breathtaking mountains, this hostel offers a spacious 4, bed female dorm with clean rooms and daily housekeeping. the hostel provides hot water and lockers for added convenience. With a beautiful rooftop view, guests can indulge in yoga sessions or engage in stimulating conversations with fellow travelers. the friendly supervisor ensures a safe and welcoming environment, making it an ideal choice for long, term stays.

    Unresponsive staff, lacking in early check, in services.

    The hostel had a great atmosphere and provided a good opportunity to meet fellow travelers. The staff was helpful and organized activities like rafting. The yoga class in the morning was a nice touch. The hostel had good vibes and the food was excellent. The live music events were enjoyable. The cleanliness of the place was impressive. The hostel's location was convenient, close to major attractions, making it easy to explore the area.

    The WiFi network was unreliable, with frequent drops in the signal. The bathrooms could use some renovation as they were average in quality.

    I recently stayed at Live Free Hostel for a few days and it was a fantastic experience. The staff at the reception were incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout my stay. The common areas, including the rooftop, were really comfortable and perfect for relaxing. The food in the restaurant was delicious, especially their amazing poha. The cleanliness and comfort of both the dormitory and private rooms were top-notch. The location of the hostel is great, with nice restaurants and yoga courses nearby. And let's not forget the free masala chai every day at 5pm, a lovely touch!

    Can recommend this hotel.

    Friendly staff who were always helpful and ready to resolve any problems. Clean rooms and well-set bed sheets on arrival.- The presence of a parking space, which is rare to find in similar properties in the area.

    Tricky entry to the parking space, but improvements may be made in the future. Housekeeping did not change the used towels and bedsheet when requested, leading to a smelly room.
