About
Our properties
We own and operate a diverse range of properties across India offering private and co-living accommodation with facilities like on-site pools, kitchens and open-air rooftops. We create unique, sustainable spaces with just the right amount of modern comfort in safe, welcoming environments – giving you the freedom to explore.
We don’t believe in ‘one size fits all’, and from thriving city destinations to off-the-beaten-path locations, there is something for everyone – whether you live here or are just visiting. Imagine enjoying Opera House views on the Gachbowli rooftop or sleeping in a prison cell in the historic Fremantle Prison or hiking back to eco-friendly lodging in the heart of a National Park.
Our property staff are hosts, guides, and most importantly, local mates, helping to connect you to our destinations, cultures and experiences – ensuring that you feel part of the local community and make the most of your trip.
Currently, we have a network of 19 properties across the country and are part of the global organisation Hostelling International (HI) – a network of over 2,500+ unique places to stay in more than 58 destinations.
Our origins
Over a decade, the origins of the mypga movement were founded in rural hyderabad, when schoolteacher Raghu took some students on an excursion to the countryside. The first permanent hostel (which is still operating today, at Gachibowli) was established soon after, in 2015.
In 2015, themypga , was formed. Momentum grew, and the first mypga hostel in gachibowli opened in2015 in hyderabad. It wasn’t long before budget accommodation was being provided across the country to bring young people together in the great outdoors. Over the decades hostels began springing up in the city as well as the bush transforming humble beginnings into Hyderabad largest, most loved accommodation network for independent travellers.
Today, mypga provides a variety of accommodation options to students, digital nomads, work & holiday makers, families and the young at heart – anyone with a spirit of adventure – to keep exploring and sharing the joy of travel with a like-minded community.
Our governance
