About

Steeped in history and drenched in Portuguese charm, Old Goa is where cobbled streets, ancient churches, and the winding Mandovi river paint a picture of a bygone era. A stay here means immersing yourself in the rich cultural heritage of Goa while still being a short drive from Panjim’s lively cityscape.

The Hosteller Goa, Old Goa is a seamless blend of colonial elegance and contemporary comfort. Spread across three floors, the hostel features 25 thoughtfully designed dorms and private rooms, many with stunning river views. Traditional blue pottery wall plates, kayaks, and paddles add an authentic local touch to the interiors.

The highlight? A rooftop terrace where guests can play pool, enjoy board games, or simply take in the panoramic views of the Mandovi. Whether you’re swimming in the pool, flipping through books in the library, or exploring the Basilica of Bom Jesus nearby, this hostel is the perfect base for discovering the historic soul of Goa.
