We went here as it was one of the only places open during Songkran for food/ drinks. We stayed for a few beers and joined in their festivities ( aka throwing water on people). They were really nice :). Thanks guys

We arrived late in the night and only did an overnight stay to catch the ferry to Koh Lanta the next morning. We got a warm welcome on arrival and even some food. The booked double room was ready and we were really surprised. The room was in really good condition, spacious, with LCD-TV and well working air conditioning. It... More

Stayed in a private room with air conditioning and fan, and private bathroom, it was clean and secure but had lots of ants! The location was great and we found the stay very good overall. Staff were friendly and helpful but not very assrtive and you could find yourself waiting a long time to be helped!

The hostel provides good facilities and the atmosphere were good. Although the staffs could not speak fluent english but they were friendly and helpful. Despite that, I got horrible experience because there were bed bugs on the bed I stayed. I got bed bug bites on my arms and I found bed bugs on the bed frames. Thus I requested... More

My reviews have to start with the simple fact that I base my opinion on my expectations. Well, we were a group of ten divided in three rooms, 1x2 and 2x4. All the rooms were fine, the usual from what you can expect. Not a five star hotel standard but exactly what you find if you book a hostel. It... More

This hostel is a good deal and offers a variety of accommodation - 4 bed mixed dorm, 10 bed mixed dorm, and private rooms. They even turn on the air in the dorms at night. Current rate is 300B per night. Everything is clean and the lobby is very welcoming. Happy Hour lasts from 5-9 and this place is quite... More

The rooms and bathrooms were clean and they turn the aircon on in the dorms at night which was amazing! It also had a nice atmosphere and was easy to make friends. And the local buses around Phuket or to Patong or Kata beach all stopped just outside, which was very handy! But the staff rip you off in regards... More

Review: PHUKET BACKPACKERS HOSTEL Initially we chose this hostel because of its proximity to the airport and Russada Pier, allowing us an easy overnight stay in Phuket before heading out to Ko Lanta and Phi Phi, and indeed, it was ideal for that – only about 30 mins from the airport and 15 mins from the pier [we shared a...
