“As a solo traveler in Kolkata, I found that even without a hostel bar, the communal areas were key. At The Nerd Nest Kolkata, I'd often meet people in the shared kitchen while making breakfast, and we'd end up planning our day or evening together. It felt safe, and getting around to local pubs for happy hour deals was straightforward using ride-sharing apps. The sun terrace was a great spot to chill before heading out.”
