Gurugram is the second largest city in Haryana and the state’s industrial and financial centre. Many people who move here arrive with a job offer before they have an address, and the flat search comes after the start date. That leaves a gap of days or weeks between landing in the city and signing a lease. A temporary stay in Gurugram covers that gap, and a hostel covers it without asking how long it will take.
goSTOPS PLUS Gurugram, Golf Course Extension is an ideal option that has no minimum or maximum stay. A short stay of a few nights and a long stay of a month book the same way. A dorm bed starts around Rs 650 a night plus taxes. For a longer stay there is a 14-day package at around Rs 6,300 plus taxes and a 28-day package at around Rs 11,900 plus taxes. Lockers in the room hold your things, and laundry is available. The Rapid Metro, about 2 km from the property, puts flat viewings across the city within reach.

Why does a temporary stay in Gurugram work while flat hunting?
A flat search has no fixed length. The first viewing can be the one, or the search can run through a month of weekends. Signing a lease from another city, on a flat you have not seen, is a risk. A temporary stay in Gurugram at a hostel asks for no such commitment. You book the nights you know about and extend when the search runs on, since the property has no minimum or maximum stay.
There is a financial advantage as well. A hostel bed is paid by the night or by the package, so nothing is tied up in a deposit on a flat you have not chosen. That leaves the money free for the deposit on the flat you eventually choose. The stay also puts you in the city while you look, on one of the corridors people relocate to.
Short stay or long stay: how does the booking work?
A short stay books by the night at around Rs 650 plus taxes for a dorm bed, and nothing stops you adding nights as the search continues. A long stay books by the package. The 14-day package is around Rs 6,300 plus taxes and the 28-day package around Rs 11,900 plus taxes. That works out to around Rs 450 and Rs 425 a night. Both are on introductory pricing.
The two combine. A relocation that starts with a week of nights can switch to a 28-day package once the search looks like a month’s work. A package can be followed by more nights if the lease needs a few extra days. For anyone who wants the room to themselves through the search, the private rooms of 236 sq ft for two book at the nightly rate for your dates. They come with the same freedom to extend.
| Good to know: the packages are for dorm beds, and there is no maximum stay on either dorms or private rooms. A flat search that runs long does not run out of nights. |
What does the room come with for a few weeks?
Dorms at the property are 4-bed AC rooms, some with a balcony, plus a 4-bed female-only dorm with a balcony. Every bed carries its own privacy curtain, plug point and individual fan, so a few weeks on a bunk still has a corner that is yours. Lockers in the room hold your things, and the door uses digital locking.
The private rooms are 236 sq ft, sleep two, and each has a balcony and an ensuite bathroom. For a couple relocating together, or for anyone who would rather have a room to themselves, a private room gives the search a settled base. The property has 28 beds in them, and they book at the nightly rate for your dates.
For both, linen and a geyser are part of the stay, and laundry is available. Over a month of flat hunting, laundry is what turns a hostel into somewhere you can live rather than somewhere you pass through. WiFi covers the property and power backup keeps it running through a cut.
| Tip: if the search might run a month, book the 28-day package from the start. At around Rs 11,900 plus taxes it works out to around Rs 425 a night, against around Rs 650 a night plus taxes when the same 28 nights are booked one at a time. Since there is no maximum stay, you can add days at the end if the lease takes longer. |
