    The room at Wow Backpackers Hostel was totally cozy and inviting. It had this nice seating area where I could just chill and relax after a long day of exploring. It made me feel right at home!

    Personally, I didn't really fancy the bathroom in the room. But hey, that's just me!

    The manager and owner contribute to a good atmosphere, there's a kitchen for preparing meals, great place to meet other travelers, good value for money, nearby street eateries are worth checking out.

    Felt most welcome, no complaints whatsoever.

    Mooie kamer met stijlvolle inrichting en comfortabele bedden. Fijne douche en gratis flesjes water in de minibar. Geweldig ontbijt met verse en smakelijke gerechten. Leuke schaapjes in de tuin en prachtige wandel- en fietsmogelijkheden in de omgeving.

    There's a gift shop, hairdresser's, and a 24-hour front desk. can't wait to buy a souvenir and get a trim while waiting for someone to check me in.

    The property is located on a very busy street. because who doesn't love the constant noise and traffic outside their window?

    The beds in the dorm were comfortable and the hostel had a small kitchen with a fridge for storing food. The location was great, with the main attractions within walking distance and the surrounding streets being lively during the day but quiet at night. The hostel has been open for a few months, so improvements are expected in the future.

    The cleanliness of the facilities, especially the bathrooms and the kitchen, was not up to par. Additionally, the rooms could get quite hot and the fan was loud.

    Friendly staff. Reasonably stocked kitchenette. Sitting area for mingling. Plenty of filtered water available. Large rooms. Very safe. Door kept locked. Staff slept near the door at night. Situated by fruit and vegetable stalls. Within short walk to the Golden Temple. Staff arranged early morning transport. Great place to stay. Thank you.

    We had a fantastic stay at this hostel. The staff was cute and kind, going out of their way to help us with directions and recommendations for the best places to eat in the area. The owner and lone staff member were generous and had a heart of gold. We seemed like we had known them for a long time. The cleanliness of the rooms and hotel facilities were excellent, and we were kinda surprised to find brand new mattresses and individual fans for each bed. The internet was fast and reliable, great to stream movies without any issues. The hotel's convenient location made it easy for us to explore the city and visit popular attractions like The Golden Temple.

    Nothing negative to say.

    I stayed at Wow Backpackers for a short but memorable time. The owner, Sunil, was always there to assist with anything I needed. The hostel's location was ideal, as it was within walking distance of the Golden Temple. The cleanliness of the hostel was impressive, making it one of the cleanest I have stayed at in India. Sunil even provided me with fresh vegetables to cook with, free of charge. There were also street food options nearby, adding to the overall experience. The staff was incredibly welcoming, making me feel special throughout my stay.

    I recommend this hotel.

    the room was affordable and although it wasn't the cleanest or most well-equipped, it still fit within my budget. the location of the hostel was ideal, just a short walk away from the Golden Temple. One thing I loved about Wow Backpackers was the newly renovated kitchen. It looked completely different from before and was a great place to cook my meals. the staff were also very helpful and friendly whenever I needed assistance. I would highly recommend giving this hostel a try, it's definitely worth it!

    Nothing to fault. .
