At the hostel, rooms are equipped with a balcony. A seating area is accessible to all guests, while some rooms have a game console. All rooms at Zigzag Homestay are fitted with a shared bathroom and bed linen.

Zigzag is a great mix of hostel and homestay - all the friendliness and local advice of a homestay whilst being really sociable with other travellers and offering lots of activities. Moses is a wonderful personable and caring host - super attentive without being overbearing at all. I was really unwell when I arrived at Zigzag and Moses was incredibly kind, checking in if I needed anything, offering advice and letting me check out late.

Moustache Agra in Agra provides adults-only accommodation with free bikes, a shared lounge and a terrace. The property is around 7.7 km from Agra Cantonment, 4.9 km from Agra Fort and 5 km from Jama Masjid. Free WiFi is available throughout the property and Taj Mahal is 1.8 km away.

Rooms are complete with a private bathroom fitted with a bidet, while some rooms at the hostel also boast a seating area.

If, like me, you want to visit the Taj Mahal early in the morning, the location of the hostel is great. In the morning, everything is lit up, so you can walk to the Taj entrance without any problems. The hosts were very kind and helpful. In my opinion, this is a great hostel.

Situated in Agra, 1.9 km from Taj Mahal, Bedweiser Backpackers Hostel features accommodation with a shared lounge, free private parking and a terrace.

I had made a reservation in 4-bed mixed dormitory. When I went there they said we have not received your reservation and now we have left with only private room which was for 1500 INR for single night. I had two nights dorm reservation for 799. When I didn't take private room and decided to look for other place then they suddenly told me that they have received the reservation. I think just to make more money they lied at the first place. I'm not sure if it was a coincidence or on purpose but this is the one thing I wanted you all to know before going there.

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.

    I couldn't have asked for a better stay in Agra than at Goyal Hoteliers! The staff's warm hospitality and the hotel's commitment to safety truly set it apart. Plus, the budget-friendly rates make it accessible to all travelers.

    The hostel is fine for backpackers. The location is perfect, it is only 4min walk from the Taj Mahal, so you can comfortably walk there for the sunrise. The staff was great and the teracce with Taj Mahal view is definitely the main benefit. We also appreciate the locker possible after checkout. The food was great, the prices are a little bit higher to the average but still fine.

    The hostel is well located with a 5 minute walk to the Taj Mahal's East Gate and lots of restaurants nearby. I stayed in the 4 bed mixed dorm and found everything ok. Again, super friendly and helpful staff. Undoubtedly nothing can beat the views from the terrace. Best hostel in Agra.

    Joey's hostel is located right near the Taj Mahal, you can't get much closer & is very convenient for your visit. The view from the rooftop is really nice. Stay here if that is what you are looking for - great location & cheap prices!

    Stayed in the dormitory - It's cheap, compared to a few other hostels down the road. So if you're really looking to save ₹100 or ₹200, this is your place. However, my recommendation is to spend that extra amount and get a much much more comfortable stay. They do provide lockers with keys.

    Budget accommodation with a superb location. Just few meters from Taj Mahal gate. The room is nothing special, the window couldnt be open, many mosquitos and hot room. BUT - you are going for a cheap budget hostel so you should expect it. If you are looking for something cheap and close to Taj Mahal, it is good choice for you ;)
