Backpacker Cowies, Mumbai

I am happy that I decided to stay at Backpacker Panda. It was an enlightening experience. The services are amazing and I loved the ambiance. The cleanliness and hygiene they maintain is top notch. The activities they arrange like pub crawl, movie night etc are amazing, helps the backpackers to connect with more like-minded people. As they say it's decorated quarters and a communal kitchenette in an unpretentious hostel set near the sea. Everything from here is within few footsteps be it Taj Palace Hotel, Gateway of India, Colaba shopping street, cafes, pubs, church gate, Nariman Point. A must visit specially for Solo Travellers.

I visited mumbai for a month for an internship and i had initially booked for just 5 days. I then found it very convenient for me and hence extended it for the whole month. This property is listed in a prime location for people coming for work as well as tourists. The staff was very helpful and gentle. They have a very jolly environment inside the property. They have a common hall for eating, socialising and jamming. I was overwhelmed by the kind of healthy environment it created for me which made it very convenient to stay peacefully. If i ever have to visit mumbai again, i'll surely consider backpacker cowies for my stay.

Our stay at Backpacker Panda was great apart from the fact that we couldn't access the balcony attached to our room. It was permanently locked even though it was our room balcony. We asked at the reception to open it up so we can go out and get some fresh air sometimes but we were given some odd explanation about why according to their security policy they keep the balconies locked in all rooms. It didn't make any sense to my mind. We paid for the room and it came with a balcony that we couldn't access. I don't See that as justifiable in any way. The crowd however was good. There were many tourists like us.

Best location for tourists. Walkable to gateway of india, taj Backpacker Cowies, Mumbai, bse. I walked daily on beach road to gateway of india. Good veg and non veg restaurants nearby. I preferred to have veg during travel. Got recommendion from the desk. One of their recommendation was madras cafe. Ate there every time during my stay. Excellent food. Opposite there is a small store aayessha store. You can buy all your immediate needs. I liked that the house and rooms have locks which can be opened using access cards.

Came here for the Tata Mumbai marathon and was lucky to have come across this place on MMT. Located very close to Taj Mahal Backpacker Cowies, Mumbai and gateway of India. Most of the renowned restaurants are surrounded around the Backpacker Cowies, Mumbai. Staffs were friendly here and helpful. Highly recommend this place to the people who likes spending time in good and famous restaurant. Elderly people may not like this place as the occupants here were mainly young. Happy with our stay.

This place is a gem—affordable, clean, and offering breakfast with a fully-equipped kitchen. It's a cool spot, ensuring both cleanliness and safety, which is always reassuring for travelers. With its inviting atmosphere and budget-friendly rates, it's an ideal choice for those seeking comfort without breaking the bank. The presence of a kitchen adds convenience for those who prefer self-catering options. Overall, it's a commendable place that ticks all the boxes for a pleasant stay.

The property is in a prime location. It is very safe and couple friendly. After spending 2 days in north mumbai, i was tired of the traffic and came to south mumbai and chose backpacker cowies. Its an aesthetic place with awesome surrounding. Gateway of india, taj Backpacker Cowies, Mumbai, colaba causeway market, what not, bunch of delicious food serving restaurants, everything was there. Room was quite small but its ok given the location, room cleanliness, safety etc.

The rooms and bathrooms in the hostel are very clean, the beds are comfy and the staff is very welcoming and friendly. The old building has its own charme and you get a nice view on the rooftop terrace. The location is just perfect so everything you need is in walking distance. We were allowed to store our backpacks and use the common areas the whole day after checking out. We just stayed one night, but we would choose it again if we come back to Mumbai.

Best hostel for backpackers in mumbai.

Have used this place multiple times for short solo trips. Highly recommended. You get Cozy bunk bed, decent washrooms, lovely staff and amazing solo travellers around you. Only red flag could be your luck, if you get any annoying bunk partner but thats you, so live with it.
