The ancient town of Rishikesh, set against the backdrop of the Himalayas with the crystalline Ganga flowing through it, is a major tourist and pilgrimage hotspot in northern India. Rishikesh is rightfully referred to as the "yoga capital of the world". The location is teeming with visitors who have come to learn yoga and meditation. It is home to a number of ashrams, some of which are globally recognised as hubs of philosophical studies, yoga, and other ancient Indian wellness traditions. With a blissful view of the gurgling Ganges from the rooftop, goSTOPS Rishikesh Lakshman Jhula is a young, social and peaceful abode in the Yoga Capital of the World. A brisk walk from the iconic Lakshman Jhula, the hostel has vibrant common areas and a Yoga space to soothe your mind, body and nomadic soul.
"The property is nice but the location isn’t that great. If location is important to you please choose gostops Tapovan. This one’s surroundings aren’t quite clean from outside nor is it v reachable. The staff is very nice and helpful though. I ended up forgetting some of my belongings at the room which they safely kept and handed over to the courier guy two days after my stay. The rooms and washrooms are clean with good space, spacious terrace and common rooms. They should start planning some group activities though which can help solo travellers connect with EO better may be like some musical experience or games. "

"Our recent family stay at the hotel was just okay. The room was average—nothing special, but clean and decent. However, the staff was hardly available when we needed assistance, which was disappointing.
Overall, it was a mediocre experience, so I’d rate it 3 out of 5. Could be better with improved service.

GGuest UserWe enjoyed staying at this hotel. Clean. There is a heater. Delicious breakfasts. Upon arrival there were welcome fruits, chips and water. It was very pleasing, because we arrived late, did not want to go out to eat, but it was important to have a snack.
They helped with a taxi to the train station, at a price lower than what was offered in the city.
Of the minuses, very long registration and filling out a lot of paperwork upon arrival.
GGuest UserI recently stayed at this hostel, but honestly, it felt more like a simple hotel. The usual hostel vibe was missing, as there wasn’t much of a crowd. If you’re looking for a social atmosphere and interactions with fellow travelers, this might not be the best pick. However, if you prefer a quiet and private stay with hostel-like pricing, it could work for you. The amenities were decent, but the lack of energy and community feeling made the experience a bit underwhelming.
GGuest UserWhenever i come to rishikesh i always & always pick my stay at joeys only, reason behind picking this property is not only it's excellent location at tapovan but super generous, helpful, sweet staff. Well equipped and well cleaned rooms. The rooftop cafe offers really good food and beverages and very nice rates. This feels like a second home to me now. Just love this place.
MMathboyFirst of all, the location and actual location on the map are completely different. Please note that it took me a while to make a reservation....
The hostel was a normal domitorin but the room was spacious.
