Mellow Fellow is a special place right in the heart of Darjeeling. It has a perfect location, a beautiful and atmospheric building, and—most importantly—a warm and welcoming vibe that makes you feel right at home. A big shout-out to the manager, who is much more than just a manager—he’s a true friend, always helpful, kind, and genuinely caring. I wholeheartedly recommend this hostel to anyone looking not just for a place to stay, but for a great experience and amazing people.

This place is like a heaven for solo travelers and a group of friends There are bunk beds(separate for boys and girls) as well as privet room facilities. Rooms were very clean and everything was up to date E.g they will provide reading lamp near your bed side as well as a phone holder to support your phone while charging. Hot water, electricity and wifi facilities are excellent,(they have wifi at all 3 floors) Location is also very nice Near batasia loop and from galary you can witness the beauty of kanchanganga peak as well as trains of Darjeeling. The owner and staff are very polite and friendly. Food facilities are also there and it's very tasty. They have a game room with projector.

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.

    The owners were helpful and humble. Also like to mention the Manager Mr. Vishal was guiding us every moment throughout the stay like travel and sightseeing. Cleaning was up-to-date. Best Hostel I have ever visited. Surely one should visit Hidden Monkey 🐒 whenever planning for Darjeeling.

    The best stay experience one could ever get in Darjeeling! Everything was so good about this place, would love to go back again. The rooms are so clean and beds are super cozy. Also the manager Bishal is an amazing host and an added gem to this property. The best hostel for solo travelers without any doubt.

    it was a nice female dorm , equivalent to any other hostels in market and 1/4th the price. So i would say it is providing more value than we are paying for. The rooms are spacious and toilets are clean and anyways you can work with staff to get any facility by paying a little bit tips. Nice for people who are looking for a comfy stay in a backpackers hostel.

    Had a great experience. Neat and clean rooms with exceptional and friendly staffs and owner. The location is a bit far from the mall road but trust me, it's worth it. I only had one dinner here, it was delicious. Ultimately the best hostel stay I've ever stayed in.

    Initially it's a bit confusing to reach to the hostel. However, it's actually in a great location close to the happening places of Darjeeling. The room was clean, but too small and felt a little expensive to the quoted price. The cafe on the first floor serves good food and has great views of the Sleeping buddha. Highly recommend this place for all backpackers.
