Whoopers Hostel Reviews

Whoopers Hostel is an absolute must for any "Game of Thrones" fan -- the entire property is dedicated to the series and is decorated with paintings of the characters, quotes from the episodes, and the flags representing the different families. However, if you have no idea about "Game of Thrones," you will still have a great time -- the hostel is of five-star quality in cleanliness, facilities, helpfulness of the staff, and comfort.

The Location

Whoopers Hostel is located literally in the middle of the forest next to the road leading to Kasol in the picturesque Parvathy Valley. It is important to note that it is not in Kasol and not even in Katagla but in the tiny village that is situated in the small wooded area about three kilometres before Katagla. Most of the apps available for smartphones mark the hostel to be in Kasol center, so in order to avoid having to come all the way back, ask for indications from the hostel beforehand or from your bus driver. Moreover, make sure to be aware that there is no paved road leading to the hostel, therefore, arriving with huge bags or suitcases might be problematic. Getting to the hostel also involves the crossing of a hanging bridge -- make sure you are comfortable with this if you want to stay here. While this location is not ideal if you aim is to discover the surrounding area, it is more than ideal if you just want to enjoy a relaxing time in nature.

Rooms and Bathrooms

There are a number of different dorm rooms available for guests. They all have comfortable bunk beds as well as lockers and en suite bathrooms. The evenings can get quite chilly here, so beside the thick blankets, electronic heaters are available for hire. The bathrooms are modern and clean and the water inside is nice and warm. Soap and shampoo are provided free of charge.

Common Spaces

The common areas are unique and exciting -- in front of the reception, you will find a cosy space with a table and mattresses, opposite which there is a billiards table, which you are welcome to play for free. There are also darts and many board games available. Outside, there is a huge badminton court and racquets are also provided. There are numerous other sitting areas both outside and on the second floor where the semi-open area offers a mini gym as well as eating and socialising areas. Everybody will find a comfortable place to chill and enjoy the closeness of nature when staying at Whoopers Hostel. Food is also available at the hostel, which is great as there are not many eateries around, however, it is a bit overpriced.

Summary

There is little else that could be added to make guests' stay at Whoopers Hostel more comfortable. With beautifully decorated interiors and a location in a truly beautiful natural environment just at the foot of the Indian Himalayas, no matter whether you stay indoors or relax outdoors, you will find every aspect of the amazing hostel enjoyable.
