Shortcut

Long weekend coming up and still haven’t made any plans? Less than four hours away from Delhi, Agra makes for a perfect spontaneous vacay, and now that we’ve found you this pretty hostel with dorm room tariff starting at INR 299—so gather the troops and go, go, go.

What Makes It Awesome

The best part about Agra is its close proximity to Delhi. We say, check in to Moustache Hostel when you're in the mood for no elaborate planning, less expenses and have a desire to meet cool strangers.

This hostel is less than 2 kms away from the Taj Mahal’s Eastern gate, has a magnificent haveli-like exteriors and intricately designed arches and tombs. It offers clean six bed non-AC and AC rooms (both mixed and women only rooms) as well as private rooms with all the amenities like free Wifi, 24-hour hot water, hair dryer, iron, free parking and daily room service.

What’s more—they have chillout areas where you can play chess, UNO and other board games, interact with people or you could even check out the rooftop restaurant for free evening tea and a decent view of the Taj Mahal. Chai, Chinjabi food & a view of one of the seven wonders of the world— your vacay can’t get any better than this (unless you were in Paris, obviously). 

Pro-Tip

Agra has more to offer than just Taj Mahal. Don't miss the architectural beauty of Agra Fort, bedhai and jalebi at Fatehbad Road, petha and dalmoth at Baluganj and shopping for shoes and handicrafts at Kinari Bazaar.
