The view from the balcony is serene and the staff are friendly. Special thanks to Minal for all the help. I noticed that few people said in the review that you have to walk through a narrow path to reach the hostel and they didn't like it but it was the opposite for me as whenever I used to walk from that path I used to see locals doing their day to day activities and kids playing, i really liked passing through that path. My overall stay was pleasant and i would love to stay at Madpackers again.

The view and arrangement in the backyard facing the scenary was very good. They had a pet dog, which was amazing. Apart from that local sitting spot had some fun games and good novels.

I can't say i didn't like but since it was off-season so we missed in-house cafe and a bit more cleanliness could have helped. However we understand that due to rains and being an off season we experienced that, which i feel would surely be there otherwise.

A very nice and comfortable place to stay in manali. It's also very affordable for travellers. The location is also very good. You get a good mountain view from the backyard. The place has a good vibe. The staff is also very helpful. Overall a good place.

The way to the hostel is a bit narrow and you have to walk a bit to get there from the parking lot. If u have heavy luggage then it's gonna be a problem. Otherwise the hostel is all good

This was my second visit here. Property has the perfect mountain view, clean dorms, wonderful staff and exceptional hospitality. Minal and kuldeep are super fun and friendly, had a crazy time with the friends I made here. Highly recommend if you want to meet amazing people and want to have good time.

Nothing to dislike about the property, the vibe here is so good you keep on extending your stay - ONE MORE NIGHT!

The property is located in very location surrounded by the beautiful cherry and apple trees. And the mountain view is also very nice.

The hostel can organize the events because everyone wants to connect with each other but feel shy. So I think to get the more audience you need to start some amazing events and try to add some led lights into the garden otherwise everything is beautiful and peaceful

I usually don't write reviews. But honestly, I had one of my best stays there. The property is spacious and has a lawn behind it. The vibe mostly depends on the kinda people gonna be there at the time. Very professional and peaceful.

Only thing is, you gotta get your food from outside as the kitchen is not functional i guess.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Madpackers Manali, and I can confidently say it was one of the most amazing experiences I've ever had. What was initially intended to be a short stay turned into an entire week of pure bliss. The credit for this unforgettable extension goes to the incredible friends I made during my time there, especially Tanu, Minal, and Kuldeep. These individuals are undoubtedly the most exceptional hosts I've encountered in a long time. Right from the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with open arms and treated like family. Tanu, Minal, and Kuldeep's warm and friendly demeanor made me feel right at home. Their genuine care and attention to detail ensured that every aspect of my stay was impeccable. One aspect of my time at Madpackers Manali that truly surprised me was the transformation in my attitude towards pets, particularly dogs. As someone who never considered themselves a pet person, I was astonished to find myself developing a newfound affection for our furry friends, all thanks to Tanu and Minal. Their guidance and support helped me forge a beautiful bond with their lovable companions, Blacky and Roxy. Madpackers Manali, with its welcoming atmosphere, and the remarkable people who make it what it is, have become a true family to me, even though they are far away from my home. The memories created and the connections forged will stay with me forever. If you're seeking an unforgettable experience with outstanding hosts, a warm ambiance, and the opportunity to embrace newfound friendships, I wholeheartedly recommend Madpackers Manali. Prepare to be captivated by the charm and hospitality that awaits you.

Everything was great location,rooms, beds, wifi and food too. I have been to many hostels but never felt home anywhere. One things i like most about Madpackers is they clean the whole hostel everyday (tables, chairs etc)This time i found my manali home. Being a solo female traveller it’s quite hard to find a safe place. Minal and Kuldeep was no stranger to me. I have read reviews about them. Now i got why your names are trending 😂 Kudos to both of you guys. It was a short meeting but I’m coming back soon. #1morenight.

It was a great stay. Stayed there for 2days. My friend suggested me this place and it was worth. Staff is amazing, help you with anything, easy check-in, very interactive especially the guy kuldeep. Cheers to him. Meet amazing people. 100% recommended. Location is bit away from main road. But if you want to see the snow caped mountain from balcony then don’t hesitate to walk. And will suggest one thing when comes to mountain please take trekking backpacks not trolley suitcases have seen people arguing with staff.

The location is perfect, not to far from the centre of old manali, can be a bit tricky to find the hostel at first though. Dorms were reasonably priced. Dorm and washroom were cleaned once a day. They have a in-house kitchen and food price was very reasonable. The dorm was warm enough, hey provided two blankets with each bed. They have a common room with a heater. The staffs were great, kuldeep and the property manager Minal were the best host ever. Roxy and blacky were love ❤️, they are the dogs who stay at the property. This is one of the best hostels in old manali. I'll highly recommend it if you are a backpacker, travelling solo or with your friends.

Common room was a bit small, lack of indoor games, the property doesn't accept cash, only cards.
