Hostels in Mumbai

A shared bed in a hostel in Mumbai usually costs around Rs 7,000 to Rs 15,000 a month, and a single room about Rs 15,000 to Rs 25,000 (approximate, as of September 2026). The lowest rents are around Navi Mumbai, Kurla and Chembur. Rents on DreamAcco listings were set when the post went up, so confirm the current rent with the owner.

The two overlap a lot. Hostels usually put more people in a room and keep things basic, while PGs more often offer single, double or triple rooms with meals and housekeeping. On DreamAcco both appear under PG/Hostel, so check each listing's sharing type and ask the owner what the rent includes.

Safety depends on the individual hostel, so check it yourself. Visit in person, look at the entry system, CCTV and gate timings, meet the warden or owner, and ask whether tenant police verification is done. Posters on DreamAcco verify their mobile number by OTP, but hostels are not inspected, so never pay a token before visiting.

Many do, but not all. Some include two or three meals a day in the rent, while others charge for food separately or only offer a kitchen. Ask the owner which meals are included, the meal timings, and whether electricity and laundry cost extra before you agree on the rent.

Often, yes. Hostels are usually more flexible than PGs, which tend to want a stay of about three months. Many hostels accept monthly stays, but ask about the minimum stay, deposit and notice period first. For a few weeks, a furnished or studio apartment listed on DreamAcco can also work.

No. DreamAcco charges zero brokerage. You chat or call the hostel owner or manager directly from the listing, within your plan's chat and call limits. Ask upfront whether you are speaking to the owner or an agent, and confirm the rent and deposit before you visit.
