I was a bit weary booking this place because the reviews seemed too good to be true but this was one of my favourite hostels in SE Asia and my favourite in Malaysia by far. I was so content and comfortable here that I extended my stay by another two nights. The free laundry, the steamer, and the changing room are all such wonderful touches for a girls dorm. CP is amazing and very accommodating, always wanting to help. All of this creates a very relaxed and friendly atmosphere, which is social but not disruptive. I met lovely people and made some amazing friends. I would definitely stay here again, it’s exactly the way a hostel/dorm should be done!!

The property was in a great location not too close to the busy city but walking distance everywhere. Supermarket downstairs and plenty of food near by. Owner was great with communication and if we needed anything got back to us in a timely manner.

It was very easy to self check in. Host was always online and helpful. Location is quiet but close to the city centre. Hotel itself is very convenient for solo travellers. Room is big enough. Just like at the photos. Place is equipped well.

All hostels in Batu Ferringhi

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
