    I had an amazing stay at Blue Jay Hostel. The ambiance was cozy and homely, making me feel right at home. The staff was courteous and always ready to help. I especially loved the vibrant common room and the work station, perfect for remote workers like me. The cleanliness of the rooms and bedding was top-notch, and the cleaning staff did a fantastic job. The rooftop was a great place to unwind and enjoy a jam session. I also made some wonderful friends during my stay. I highly recommend this hostel for a memorable stay in Rishikesh.

    While the breakfast option with the stay didn't meet my expectations in terms of variety and value for money, it's better to order from the menu separately. Additionally, the lack of windows in the standard room was a downside, as it wasn't mentioned in the pictures.

    I stayed at Blue Jay Hostel for a week during my sightseeing trip. The location is perfect, within walking distance of all the main attractions. The cleanliness of the rooms and the bathroom was impressive. The staff went above and beyond to assist and were always friendly. The common area is well-designed and the rooftop with a café offers a stunning view. I highly recommend this hostel.

    I do recommend this hotel.

    I stayed at Blue Jay Hostel for 30 nights while working on a manuscript. The rooms were beautiful, especially the ones on the third floor with a balcony. The staff, including Anil, Manish, and Priyanshu, were incredibly friendly and helpful. The owner, Ms Anu, was accommodating and down to earth. The hostel had a chilled atmosphere, perfect for remote workers and backpackers. The cleanliness and hygiene were top-notch, and the bed was comfortable. it was a perfect stay, and I strongly recommend considering Blue Jay for your next trip.

    Would definitely recommend this hotel.

    This was my second time in India and the best hostel experience I've had! The staff is incredibly nice and helpful. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The location is perfect, right next to a recommended restaurant called "Pure Soul". The hostel has a welcoming atmosphere and offers great service. The private deluxe double rooms are a great value for money. The common room, café, and rooftop garden are special features that enhance the stay. Thank you to the staff for their hospitality and Hindi lessons. We'll definitely be back!

    Would recommend this hotel.

    We had an incredible stay at this hostel. The rooms were spotless, and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The rooftop offered breathtaking views, and the location was perfect - quiet yet close to everything. The food at the restaurant was outstanding, especially the Indian cuisine. We highly recommend trying it. The deluxe rooms were exceptionally comfortable.
