Upspot Kuching Waterfront Premium Hostel

Kuching

Located in Kuching, 8.3 km from Borneo Convention Centre Kuching, Upspot Kuching Waterfront Premium Hostel provides air-conditioned rooms and a shared lounge.

The Amenities Location I initially booked just one night at Upspot Kuching Waterfront Premium Hostel, but ended up extending my stay for three more days—it’s that good! This place truly feels like a home away from home, offering everything a traveler could need. The amenities are top-notch: a well-equipped workspace (ideal for digital nomads!), a modern kitchen, cozy dining area, relaxing TV lounge, and even washing machines and dryers (a lifesaver for long-term stays). But the real standout is its location. Nestled near the Kuching Waterfront, you’re steps away from the riverfront promenade, historic attractions, charming cafes, and vibrant local markets. Exploring the city couldn’t be easier! Whether you’re passing through for a night or settling in longer, Upspot delivers comfort, convenience, and great value. I’d return in a heartbeat—highly recommended for solo travelers, couples, or anyone seeking a clean, social, and well-located stay. Don’t miss this gem! 🌟

The lodge is within walking distance of everything to see in the city itself. Everything is not so far if you have to take a grab. The host is very friendly and helpful. He explains everything and also helps you plan activities. Speaks very good English and replies to messages very promptly! The room is very spacious with a comfortable bed and air conditioning which definitely comes in handy with the heat!
