About Us
Built in Kochi. For India.
HostelPups started with a simple frustration: finding a decent PG in India is awful. Brokers charge a month's rent. Landlords reject couples, bachelors, pet owners, and almost anyone who's not a married working professional. Listings are either fake, outdated, or hidden behind paywalls disguised as "premium memberships".
We're fixing that, one verified hostel at a time. Every owner on HostelPups completes KYC — government ID + video call + live location + Google research. Every photo is watermarked. Every listing clearly says who it welcomes: couples, bachelors, students, families, pet owners. Filters that should have existed for years finally do.
And we charge renters honest, one-time prices — ₹99 for a week, ₹199 for a month, ₹499 for a year — instead of monthly subscriptions you forget to cancel. PG hunting is one-shot use. So we built one-shot pricing.
Why "HostelPups"?
Because finding a hostel shouldn't feel like an interrogation. It should feel like talking to a friendly pup who knows the neighborhood. (Also: we're proudly pet-friendly. Bring your dog, your cat, your hamster. We have listings for them too.)
