Vista hostel is an experiment in nature. It is a great place for those who want to disconnect from the buzz and spend some time with themselves quietly. It is located one kilometer of walk on a small hilly trail from the roadhead and the staff helps with baggage. But I would advice travelling light. The rooms are very basic and some could do with some better ventilation and light. There are common toilet and bathrooms, which leave a lot to be desired. The staff is kind and willing to help. Food is nice and common dining area is a great place to mingle with other hostellers. We had gone there as three families, but felt it was a better choice for backpackers, than family travelers. Shantanu was a great host and helped us with arranging vehicle to drop off to Kathgodam. Bubu, the original owner of the land and man of the wild, took us on a wonderful trail to a hill top temple for a nice sunset and guided us back superbly even in the dead of the dark past sunset.
My stay at Vista Hostel was absolutely amazing! The view from the hostel was breathtaking, and the food was delicious. The facilities were fantastic, and the property itself was beautiful with great amenities. The staff were incredibly friendly and sweet, making me feel right at home. Plus, if you're a pet lover, you'll be thrilled to meet their three lovely dogs. Overall, Vista Hostel is definitely the best place to stay!

This place is a hidden gem in Kalpa with majestic view of Kinner Kailash ranges. We were mesmerised by the mountain ranges surrounding this place and each room is placed so beautifully with just the perfect view. It can't get any better.
And, the hospitality shown by Rawat Ji was extraordinary.
He took utmost care of us, made exquisite finger licking good Kinnauri food never heard of before and made sure that we had all that we needed for a comfortable stay.
We will definitely come back as soon as we get a chance and we totally recommend this place to anybody who is looking for a peaceful stay under the majestic Himalayas.
Thanks a lot to Rawat Ji and team, we wish nothing but the best for you. Hope to be here again soon.
Nice and clean rooms. Beautiful view from the windows All the staff are very good.
