The Big Mooch - Backpacker Hostel in Jaipur - Jaipur, India

The best hostel I have been. The hosts(Father and son duo) are amazing. We were 6 people staying at their place. We reached the hostel at around 12 in night. We had a bonfire and warm, yummy food. The hosts shared some fascinating stories. We decided that if we ever come back to Jaipur again, we are staying at the Big Mooch. They deserve a 6 star rating for all they did for us.

Still there. The place is one among the best backpacker hostel. The owner is a gem of a person. The place is very nice. They have clean and tidy rooms. The bunk beds are cozy. There is a smoking area in the back yard. You can talk hours with the owner, they have a nice experience to share.

Hands down one of the best places I've been to. It's a home away from home. The hosts are amazing, the place comfortable and cosy and the food awesome! Definitely recommend if you're in Jaipur. Had a truly memorable experience at the Big Mooch.

Wonderful host and oldest place fir backpackers. They claim that the first Transcendental meditation course was taught here. Place is good for small budget travellers. Bunk beds ( with cotton mattress) are comfortable enough to get good sleep. Don't expect some colorful walls and designer stuff. Its a big residence converted into Hostel.

I stayed there in November 2017 but finally take time to write ! You can stay at this hostel because rooms are nice, everything is really clean (bedrooms, sheets, bathrooms), water is hot and with pressure, wifi works really good. You can also stay there because the neighborhood is quiet and safe, and because of the cooker who make one of the best indian food ! But for sure, you have to go to The Big Mooch because of Jay and his father, the most wonderful people in Rajasthan for sure !!!!! There are so friendly, helpful, welcoming, smiling, nice, incredible and soooooo much ... ! They are always free to help you. They have a lot of stories to tell. They can give you many and many advices, always good ! :) They share meals with you ! I can write always more about my 5 heaven days at their hostel !! Thanks a lot for all Jay and Harash. You are my best meeting in my trip ! Your are the best hostel I 've ever stayed. You are wonderful, incredible people, the kind of people you will never forget.

Amazing experience. You have everything for traveler. Good bed, hot water, yummy food ( the best dal). It's not a 5 star hotel but the hospitality of owners is 10/10. Dad and soon are amazing, they help you with everything

The place to be in Jaipur. EXCELLENT hospitality! The owners Harsh and Jai will take care of everything because they consider their guests to be their family. They help you with sightseeing, delicious food from their cook, best shopping places and a welcoming atmosphere. You can sit and talk to them until late in the night. No matter what you need Harsh and Jai make it possible. Facilities are cosy, clean and comfortable. The place is quiet and close to a local market. Many cafes and restaurants are in walking distance. If you need to go to the city, this is around 60 INR with the Uber. You can spend as many days as you like here, it never gets boring.

Top place to stay in Jaipur, you will not regret, the owners, Jay and is father will be everything to make you comfortable since the first minute, and they indicate you the places to see and how to reach there. And the tali is amazing. Can be more happy to spend there this 3 days.
