Ko Samui Hostels

Pros: Perfect place and staff , staff helpfull, seaview, best cappuccino of Koh Samui

Pros: The staff was amazing, the woman who leads the hostel is one of the kindest people i ever met. And because the hostel is really not that big it feels like everybody there is little family. There are some good oportunities to eat around and the beach is awsome. I can highly recommend this hostel for people who are looking for a relaxed and comfy stay!

Cons: The only 'negative' thing is that u are located far away from the tourist area. It is a amazing place for chilling but if u want to get somwhere else u have to rent a motor bike. Without it u cant explore the other parts of the island. But no worries riding a motor bike is not hard.

Pros: The owner helped us with the ferry-ticket:-)

Pros: Everything!!

Cons: Nothing! Everything was just perfect !

Pros: Friendly and warm, definitely recommended !

Pros: If you're looking for a nice place off the beaten path away from all the tourists to relax, then this place is perfect. It's next to a small quiet beach with a few restaurants close to it. The owner Chompoo is also so nice it's incredible. She showed me a bit around the island and organized activities for the whole hostel. I only booked for one night but stayed for four.

Pros: The lady who runs the hostal is the best! She took us to a night market the other side of the island and even paid some food for us to try. She also drove me to the port so I could take my ferry. She didn't charge nothing for all of that! Hostal is in a quiet area, close to some of the most beautiful beaches!

Pros: Chompoo is the most amazing host- she took a group of us from the hostel around the night market and made us feel like her family. I am so grateful to have met her. The vibe of the hostel is also great!

Cons: I was confused about the blanket- I thought it was a towel. Comfortable though!

Pros: This is a beach house, not really a hostel and that’s what makes it special! Best place in Samui if you want to relax, breakfast is included, 10m from the beach! Chompoo is a lovely host, I’ll definitely come back here!

Cons: A bit far out from everything, but again I appreciated that!

Pros: The place is 20 m from the ocean which is great. There is not much around it. You find places to eat and that's it. Mostly locals around which I loved, and not so many tourists, rather a hidden spot. Perfect! It's supergreat for us who search for peace and quiet! The owner knows how to make her guests happy! She took us to the night markets and explained all the different dishes and ordered special foods for us to try. We had lots of fun! Thank you, Chompoo!

Cons: Re ocean: However, there are stones in the water for which you need special shoes. During ebb it doesn't look promising. Whereas I haven't gone swimming, there were people in the water. So you can do it - those who search for a vacation by the sea there might be other places for them, though.

Pros: Spacious dorm with a big balcony. WiFi working very well. A/C in the dorm. Nice people working in the hostel. Lockers available. The hostel has a restaurant offering delicious meals at good prices.

Pros: - Staff were extremely friendly and helpful - Food and drink was cheap and very good - Nice bar and chill out area away from the restaurant - Good aircon and very comfortable beds

Cons: - Only 1 toilet and shower on the first floor between a lot of rooms. - No mirror in the private room

Pros: Everything. Great staff, always smiling, working hard and there if you need anything. The lovely thing is that they appear to really enjoy what they do. Dorms are clean with light and plug sockets, no issues at all. Great food at 60bht, such incredible value I ate there every day breakfast lunch and dinner pretty much. Tours and ferry’s can be booked there too. About a 10 minute scooter ride from chaweng beach and the cheapest rental around. Just amazing for the price. Faultless. :)

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: The food and the staff were outstanding. I virtually didn't eat anywhere else on the island during my stay. I highly recommend the Green Curry and the Gyoza!

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Everything was just amazing and very smooth and relaxing, since the second I entered the hostel. The energy overall was very chill and I was very lucky to have such great roommates as well. I could not be happier with my stay at a hostel. The location is amazing, peaceful, by the beach but also with a bit of a night life, anything you need is just at a reach of a hand.

Cons: I liked everything really.

Pros: Pim is a great host and the food is great and value for money, transfers and mopeds can be hired on site

Cons: This isn’t the fault of pim but the road is very noisy due to traffic and loud bikes, we had to use earplugs most nights.

Pros: Amazing staff, very welcoming and always there to help you! There's a good and inexpensive restaurant and bar downstairs, possibility to rent moped and buy tickets. I had a great stay and really felt like I was looked after the whole time.

Cons: Nothing to complain about, a nice hostel all in all.

Pros: I love this place ...stay was very comfortable and staff was good. Food is fantastic.

Cons: Not hot shower

Pros: Pros: - Staff is friendly and welcoming - Bathrooms and beds are clean, and cleaned daily - Almost every bed had separate power sockets - Restauraunt downstairs. Friendly for both meat lovers and vegans. Meals are 7/10

Cons: Cons: - Extremely close to the road, you hear every passing car or motorbike - Wi-Fi could be better in the rooms. Okay for web surfing, not enough for Youtube - No control over AC. You can either turn it on or off with the button ok the wall. Cannot regulate temperature/power or turn off the lights of AC(the light is extremely bright in the night, which is bad). - Only one spicy sauce cup for the whole restauraunt

Pros: Decent food in their little "restaurant"

Cons: There were no hotplates. Neither in our family room kitchen, nor in the public one. The scooter we rented had bad brakes.

Pros: I was surprised about the owners hospitality, clean and well designed place. Probably that is one of the best price and almost top maintained place. I lived 10 days there with joy and bless. The hosts (her name is Moonlight and his name unfortunately i do not know) are the most kindness and honest people. If i have a chance i will be back and with pleasure recomend it to others.

Pros: Variety of rooms, bungalows and pricing available. Boutique guest house with hostel type rooms as well as luxury bungalow/villas. Family suite above the pool was clean, spacious and comfortable, with good bathroom and studio kitchen. Common area, dining and pool area is pleasant and makes it possbile to socialize with other guests, or not. Owner/manager couple are friendly and helpful. Parking and water hose for self car wash was a welcome bonus.

Cons: Everything was pretty much perfect for our needs.

Pros: The best place to stay in Samui if you're looking for something quiet. Surrounded by jungle, there is a great clean swimming pool and you can hear hoppers. Air conditioning in the rooms works perfectly. There's a few beaches reachable by foot, but if you want to stay there, even for basic needs like 7 Eleven, you'll absolutely need to rent a scooter. If you're looking for party places, this is not the place for you at all. People working there are so kind, nice and helpful. A total YES!

Pros: It was my best staying! the host was soo nice and helpful and everything was perfect! Very good kitchen and pool, and it was so nice and quiet. Best place to stay for sure

Pros: The owners were lovely and helped with a lot of questions. These location is pretty far from everything, so it would be better driving a scooter. You can also rent it from the hostel.:) Perfectly silent at nighttime though.

Pros: Everything else. Nice pool. Tasty food. Comfortable rooms and friendly people.

Cons: No many facilities around. Only houses along the beach. Have to have transport

Pros: Surrounding is airy, fresh, lots of tree, very spacy! Environment if safe and friendly

Cons: Room is small

Pros: Overall i had an amazing time there as i got there was nobody staying there except for me. I had the whole hostel, a beautiful large swimming pool just by myself. Other than that the space was super clean. Its is located somwhere in the hills, so if you trek up the path you can find some beautiful unnamed viewpoints.

Cons: It was quite far from any of the beach or club or market. At night, the whole area becomes pin drop silent and it even gets hard to find the way back to the hostel.

Pros: Great pool. Friendly staff.

Cons: Hard beds and the pillows was horrible

Pros: > Location was great, just located near to Chaweng beach. > Pool was great > Bed was very comfortable and a good stay it was

Cons: > Washrooms are shared, you don't have proper privacy > Too noisy at times

Pros: Everything is new, well cared, cleaned. They have good lockers and the beds are a bit bigger than usual and with curtains (great) I didn't used the swimming pool but they have a good area.

Cons: The hostel is literally next to a night club/bar that has the loudest music I've ever heard! So you literally won't sleep until 3:30am...

Pros: Good rooms with a good amount of space for personal belongings. Great location for a night out.

Cons: So so so loud - if you aren’t partying until 4am then be prepared to enjoy the club music like the dj is in your room. Bunks vibrate from the bass which is alright if you can see the fun side of it.

Pros: It's a really cool hostel. Pool, big lockers and thank god I appreciated that! Comfy bed and staff really helpful. The location is more than perfect, pretty close to the bar and restaurant road, atms, exchange, beach.. just perfect!

Cons: Well, there was strong music outside and also from the bar but in my case wasnt a problem because I sleep faster with noise around but just consider in case u are a light sleeper you may have trouble with it.

Pros: very friendly and helpful staff! everything very clean

Cons: loud music in the night from the neighbour bar, was difficult to sleep in the night

Pros: 2mins walk to the beach and the walking street Outside bar - good place to meet people Big lockers Comfy beds although the bed sheets were stained

Cons: No indoor common area, so have to stay in the dorm when it’s raining 500 baht deposit Not a good place to stay if you want to go to sleep early as the music is loud coming from the nearby clubs - wasn’t a problem for me though

Pros: NO breakfast, the only the place nearby town, beach area, convenience to us reach the place.

Cons: expend the toilet maybe, the toilet space too small.. water hitter and pressure need to be change to improve performance. air flow need to fix in big room.

Pros: The staff was great !

Cons: The room had a bad smell, and it was very loud place. It wasnt very clean.

Pros: Comfy bed, chill area around the swimming pool and very nice looking hostel. Located in the main street walking 5 minutes to the beach.

Cons: The noisy airplanes that pass by very close on top of the hostel

Pros: Nice location surrounded by bars A locker for every bed + curtains & towels

Cons: Very loud in the dorms until 3 a.m. If you're in for party perfect; otherwise chose another hostel

Pros: Room was clean Bathroom was amazing Bed was nice size and comfortable The staff were super helpful and friendly

Cons: WiFi was very slow and cut out a few times The place itself outside the rooms was unbearably hot because of no air conditioning or fans

Pros: Great location

Cons: Very loud at night. Shower wasn’t working for the two days and front of house wasn’t helpful .

Pros: We took the cheapest room, we paid 18 euros so it was OK for one last night. It was clean, good bed, good AC, the receptionist was nice. In front of chewing beach

Cons: Of course you hear the loud music and the planes, but we knew that so it was OK

Pros: Really good rooms right in the middle of the center, Sam, the guy at the desk made my staying 10 times better! Care a lot about the people who stay there. A lot of thanks

Pros: Location and cleanliness

Cons: Power outage for several hours.

Pros: Best location you can possibly ask for especially for the price simply in the midlle of all the action Amazing staff helped us so much and with a smile.

Pros: Always a warm welcome this is our 4th visit Jack and the team always look after us Rooms and linen changed daily Great service

Pros: If you wanna party at chaweng beach it’s a good place to stay.

Cons: It wasn‘t the cleanest place you could stay. There was sand and some hair on the sheets (which were by the way a little too short for the mattress).

Pros: Jack - the manager did free upgrade for me. I originally booked female dormitory and he gave me double room with private bathroom for the same price as female dormitory. How nice of him! All of them guys are very friendly, polite and helpful. Hotel is clean, in a good location close to the beach and restaurants.

Cons: I loved everything :)

Pros: Great location beside beach Only a walk away from anything needed Jack and Ram very helpful and pleasant Would def go back

Pros: The staffs are all kind and friendly. Cheap per a day. Comfortable room. The food of restaurant is good. Motorbike rental service is cheap and useful. High cost performance. I had a wonderful time. Thank you for everything. See you again.

Pros: Free pool table.

Cons: We paid for 5 nights and left after 2. We booked this hostel because it said “Breakfast included in the price” which it stated TWICE on the hostel information. I triple checked this after the receptionist told me we didn’t have breakfast with it?? It literally says it’s included in the price! The staff weren’t welcoming or even slightly friendly and the younger one had an attitude problem and none of them spoke English. It’s not very professional. They actually creeped us out a bit after the second night at 5am we heard them screaming and what sounded like banging doors?!?!?! It made us wide awake. And went on for over half an hour?.. we still do not know what was going on. We decided to leave and cut our 5 nights short which lost us money. When I went downstairs to deliver the keys to a moped we booked the previous day which we used ONCE for a few hours. The girl tried to tell me it was scratched?! I had taken a video of the entire bike before we rode it and that exact scratch she was pointing out was in the video!!! She then tried to tell me we had hired it on a completely different day... we literally checked in the night before, so that made absolutely zero sense. And I was not having it! She tried to scam us and it was our final reason to leave. Have trust in your guests!! The rooms are dated which is no issue at all. But they are dirty.. the towels had stains and our food had ants on it when we woke up which I know is out of their control but it made us feel sick. P.s my boyfriend says if you get a burger from the bar, don’t.. as it’s uncooked! (One of the women was nice who served us dinner on the first night.)

Pros: Comfy and spacious room with good working aircon. Friendly and accommodating staff. My boyfriend couldn’t get enough of their breakfast and wanted to have dinner here every night. They probably make the best burgers in Thailand. We rented a scooter from them for good price and no hassle. You won’t find this much value for money anywhere else on the island.

Cons: No quilts in the room

Cons: Ants on and around the bed. Paper thin walls. No quilt.

Pros: Toop location,breakfast ok

Pros: The food in the hostel restaurant is really good and you can find very good deals every day. From the first day they were very polite and explained us where to go, what to do, etc. It has a good location and beautiful beaches close to the hostel. They do room cleaning every day.

Cons: Some sheets and towels were a bit dirty (stains). Apart from that everything was good.

Pros: Comfortable and cheap

Cons: 20min walk into town, WiFi isn’t great and were a few ants

Pros: The room was huge. Check in was very easy and the owner was really easy going Austrian man. We ate breakfast downstairs in the restaurant and it was nice. You can rent scooter directly with them and it was cheapest I’ve had so far, 150thb for 24 hours. The beach is really close and there is 711 just behind the corner. Check out was very good cause they have it late until 12 o’clock. The wifi was really good aswell. Good value for money.

Cons: So for us this was actually good cause we are smokers but for those who don’t smoke or don’t like the smell it’s not good place to stay cause you can smoke in your room and in the restaurant where is the check in. Otherwise nothing we didn’t like , it’s very good budget accommodation with aircon and fridge in the room with lot of space.
