Zostel Udaipur

We recently (14/01 - 18/01) stayed at Zostel, Udaipur and were completely impressed with the overall experience.

The check-in process was hassle free as we had opted for a web check-in prior to our arrival. We were in our room in no time.

Located on a small hill, Zostel provides a good view of Pichola lake and most parts of Udaipur. As we stayed in a private room, there were quite a few amenities that were provided to us, including a water kettle, coffee, tea, and milk powder.

The room itself was spacious with a comfortable bed and attached bathroom which had 24hr hot water supply. Since the hot water was connected to solar power, early mornings took quite some time for the water to heat up. The room service isn't the sharpest though as we had to remind them to change a few things a couple of times.

The parking though available is limited and can get quite tricky since it's located on a hill. The restaurant on the rooftop provides a great view of the city and can be an ideal place to relax over dinner. The menu is quite varied and the food preparation is also decent, if not great.

For the price point, Zostel offers one of the best and reliable accommodation within Udaipur, as it is at a walkable distance from most of the important tourist spots.

It is an average stay. If you plan to come to your rooms only at night and need just the bare minimum facilities then this is the perfect pick for you.

Location - The hostel is located at a uphill location. The autos and cabs usually refuse to drop till the gate so you will have to walk a bit to reach the hostel.
But the plus point is that it is located less than 1.5 kms from all the major attractions and cafes

Rooms - Basic amenities (this is also for the twin room and the lake side view rooms). The photo of the lakeside view room is of one such room. All the rooms look different so there is a chance that what you've seen in the photos may be different from the room you actually stay in.

Bunk beds were good, conference. View was great.but you have to get your own lock for the locker. That wasn't mentioned and as it's a shared room, so you can't lock the room either. That was my only concern. Other then that everything was great.
