If you read my other review about Reggae Mansion in KL, you'll know that I have a love/hate relationship with this particular hostel brand. Anyway, I went back into the fray because I thought I had a handle on the whole Reggae experience and I missed the glorious breakfasts. I can say that this place has all of the flaws... More

I booked to stay at Reggae for 4 nights and ended up staying for 6 mainly because of Charlie, the daytime manager who makes you feel so at home and will do anything to help you. He is an angel. The beds are cubicle style with a mirror, curtain and light, making it very comfortable and private. The bathrooms were... More

Overall...great worthwhile stay. This was the first hostel I stayed in during my travel. The staff definitely made the experience as well. They were not only friendly, detailed, informative, and kind...they were hilarious, and a fun crowd to be around! We had some fun nights chatting with the entire staff. The only reason I'm not giving it the full 5... More

I was really impressed with this place. Ordinarily I wouldn't book into a party hostel but I wanted some friendly company so I chose here. The owner checked me in and couldn't have been more friendly (some of the other staff are less friendly/helpful). I arrived on Saturday night and the music was loud until 4am but I was so... More

This hostel was simply amazing! I knew from the minute I walked in that it had great character, atmosphere and friendly staff. Good place to meet other backpackers. The dorms consist of individual cubicles with light, powerpoint and even a mirror! The manager from Reggae Mansion KL was visiting and she was lovely! Took her own time to take a... More

Reggae hostels is part of a chain of hostels in Malaysia. There are a few locations in KL namely. When I first arrived, I was greeted in a less friendly manner than I'm used to. I later found out that this is usually the case at the hostel. The staff never seem that friendly except for the 2 managers/owners. I... More

I started by one night in private room in a hotel, then move to the hostel next door to Reggae, and due to the recommendations from the group, I end up my 3 next nights in Reggae. So far, this is my best experience among all three. The bed is very clean, the ambience in social area is nice and... More

Nice hostel, very social. Had problems with wifi - often it wouldn't connect. I stayed in a four dorm and my pod had a window to the front street, mirror and plug. Girls can drink free most nights but I wasn't there on the right days. Breakfast was an omelette and was nice. Only downside were the lack of bathrooms... More
