Your hostel, on your phone
When your hostel runs on HostelPalika, your bills, receipts, menu, notices and night status are in your own app — and finding your next hostel is on the same site.
See each month's bill, pay the way you already do — eSewa, Khalti or bank — and upload the screenshot. It is checked against your bill, and you get a receipt once it is recorded.
Download a statement PDF of every bill and payment with a running balance, and see your khata — the extras you took on account.
Mark whether you are in tonight, see attendance, and send an SOS that reaches staff and your guardians at once.
See the week's menu, the hostel's notices, raise complaints and follow them, and review the hostel once you have lived there.
Invite your parent or guardian so they can see your fees, notices and safety alerts — and only yours.
The app opens with the account's own 4-digit PIN or a fingerprint, and the web portal asks for the same PIN. Ten wrong PINs in a row block it until it is reset with an email code.

Questions from residents
Pay with eSewa, Khalti or your bank the way you already do, then upload the payment screenshot in the app. It is checked against your bill before it is recorded, and a receipt follows.
Your hostel sends you an invite link or adds you, and you sign in with your own account. Residents never pay for the app.
Yes — open Statement in the app or portal to download a PDF of your bills and payments with a running balance.
Only residents who have actually stayed at a hostel can review it, so the reviews on a hostel's page come from people who lived there.
