India House is a great hosteI with a variety of accommodation options available. I stayed in a 6 bed female only dorm for 2 nights. Conveniently, there is cooked breakfast & supper available to purchase daily- the breakfast was tasty & affordable. There is a pool as well as live bands jamming every now & then. I was travelling solo... More

I stayed there with about twenty friends. This place was disgusting. The people were rude beyond belief. The sheets were dirty. The bathrooms were filthy. The entire staff was very rude. There are a lot of bohemian vagabond traveler types that frequent this place. They are very shady. The staff is only interested in getting high and partying. Being helpful... More

This is definitely a party hostel, New Orleans Style. The food is really good and cheep and there are lots of activities, and extremely friendly knowledgeable staff. Its extremely easy to meet people, and the hostel is located close to a cable cart line that heads down into the city and to the french quater. I would stay here again.

Had so much fun here and love meeting so many wonderful people. Loved every minute of it! Well price and a good location. At the time the owner had quite a menagerie (including snakes) on the property, proved very entertaining.

India house lives up to its reputation, it is the most fun you can have in a hostel. With a pool and some seriously good crawfish boils ($10 per person all you can eat), the staff here were super helpful. The room ($31 for a private room) was okay with no frills but the bed was clean and the a/c... More

We stayed here for 2 nights after getting back from a cruise. We booked a private double bed with an en-suite bathroom and it was wonderful, worth the few extra dollars. We weren't in the main house, we were 2 houses away in a cute little front room with our own porch. The bed was a little un- comfy, but... More

Stayed at India House for 3 nights and found it to be a mixed experience. Pros: The location is great, it's a 30 second walk to the trolley stop where for $3 you can visit Bourbon Street, The French Quarter, the Garden district and more. Runs late which is perfect for getting home cheaply after a night out. They have... More

The hostel is well set up and great from a socialising point of view. The back yard and pool area are really good, very quirky and good for chilling out. We didn't use it much but the TV and lounge area inside the house also look comfortable and with lots of space so if you are travelling alone it seems... More
