The ancient town of Rishikesh, set against the backdrop of the Himalayas with the crystalline Ganga flowing through it, is a major tourist and pilgrimage hotspot in northern India. Rishikesh is rightfully referred to as the "yoga capital of the world". The location is teeming with visitors who have come to learn yoga and meditation. It is home to a number of ashrams, some of which are globally recognised as hubs of philosophical studies, yoga, and other ancient Indian wellness traditions. With a blissful view of the gurgling Ganges from the rooftop, goSTOPS Rishikesh Lakshman Jhula is a young, social and peaceful abode in the Yoga Capital of the World. A brisk walk from the iconic Lakshman Jhula, the hostel has vibrant common areas and a Yoga space to soothe your mind, body and nomadic soul.
"The property is nice but the location isn’t that great. If location is important to you please choose gostops Tapovan. This one’s surroundings aren’t quite clean from outside nor is it v reachable. The staff is very nice and helpful though. I ended up forgetting some of my belongings at the room which they safely kept and handed over to the courier guy two days after my stay. The rooms and washrooms are clean with good space, spacious terrace and common rooms. They should start planning some group activities though which can help solo travellers connect with EO better may be like some musical experience or games. "
This place is great. We had a very comfortable, spacious and clean room. Warm solar-heated shower. Choice of fan and airco. Fridge and some complimentary items like lots of water and crisps. Our balcony door didn't open (although we never asked for a key), and the balcony window didn't close, but besides that we had a perfect stay. The breakfast at the hotel's restaurant was quite good. And FYI: alcohol and meat-products are not allowed in the room.
Its 800m uphill from library chowk, mussorie, so the climb can be exhausting as times especially if you’ve luggage, so take a cab instead. Overall stay is good, good music and good staff.

Whenever i come to rishikesh i always & always pick my stay at joeys only, reason behind picking this property is not only it's excellent location at tapovan but super generous, helpful, sweet staff. Well equipped and well cleaned rooms. The rooftop cafe offers really good food and beverages and very nice rates. This feels like a second home to me now. Just love this place.
