Mitra Mcleodganj

Liked the location, enjoyed meeting people, and the staff was good.

The best location and the room and bed size were incredible, with views over the mountain of 10 and staff always ready to help; definitely the best choice for solo travel.

Great value for money, decent communal area and rooftop terrace, but it sits on a steep hill a little far from main restaurants, cafés and attractions, making walking back in the dark a bit dodgy.

“Well done mitra”

The terrace is in a great spot, but otherwise nothing special.

The experience was very disappointing with extremely poor management and hospitality. I had stayed at Mitra before under the previous management and had a completely different experience. Unfortunately, the new management and staff made this stay extremely unpleasant. The biggest issue was the manager’s attitude and behaviour. There was no information during booking or check‑in about any gate‑closing time, yet I was later told that the gates would be closed around 11 PM and the staff would go to sleep. If this is a hostel rule, it should be clearly communicated beforehand, not imposed on guests afterward. When I requested some flexibility, the manager later behaved as though I had created a problem simply by asking. The next morning, I checked out around 10:30 AM and asked to keep my luggage safely in the common area for roughly an hour. Instead of simply explaining a luggage‑storage policy, I was told that I would have to pay for an entire dorm to keep my bags there. When I questioned this, the manager became rude and confrontational and even threatened to throw my luggage outside. Considering the unpredictable weather in McLeod Ganj and the fact that I had valuable belongings including a laptop, this was completely unacceptable. The situation became so unnecessarily hostile that I eventually had to call the police to help settle the matter. All of this over keeping luggage safely inside the hostel for a short time. There were other service issues too. Nobody explained how to use the geyser, and I had to figure it out myself. When I mentioned it, the response was basically that I should have asked. That is not the level of hospitality I expect from a hostel. The general atmosphere was also uncomfortable, with staff having loud and inappropriate conversations in the common area, including comments about boys and relationships, rather than maintaining a welcoming environment for guests.
