The room was clean and neat, and the staff was super friendly, day or night. I even bugged the night shift for a charger, and they still welcomed me with a smile when I came in at 2 pm. I'll definitely stay there again.

We stayed in the triple run and it was great. Plenty of space, nice balcony, clean and comfortable. The rooftop pool was great and plenty of options for the food.. If your lucky you can see the hornbill on the roof, near the pool.

Mad Monkey provided enjoyable food options at their restaurant, including beer, and had a pool to swim in during the day or simply relax in the sun. The hostel organized evening events such as beer pong and traditional food experiences, which might make working in the evening a bit challenging. I found the atmosphere to be somewhat loud for my taste, but the good Wi-Fi signal and opportunities for socializing or exploring the city could be appealing to others.

It was a very comfortable stay, and the price was very reasonable. I stayed in the dormitory room, and it was clean with good air conditioning. I also felt safe because I could store my luggage under the bed with a padlock. The bathroom area sometimes needs a bit more checking, but it’s totally acceptable. The location is excellent for sightseeing in Phnom Penh – close to the main attractions and surrounded by nice restaurants. There’s even an AEON MaxValu (like a convenience store) about 300m away, which is very convenient. And also, the staff are very friendly. Highly recommend!

This place has such an amazing vibe! From the moment you walk in, you feel welcome and at ease. It’s the kind of hostel where it’s easy to meet people or just relax on your own, depending on your mood. The owner is genuinely one of the kindest and most thoughtful people I’ve come across—they go above and beyond to make sure everyone has a great experience. It’s also a fantastic value for what you get. Everything feels well taken care of, and you can tell there’s a lot of heart in how the place is run. If you’re looking for somewhere affordable, friendly, and full of good energy, this is absolutely the place to be. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat!

All hostels in Phnom Penh

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.

This hostel is perfect if you want to meet new friends and fellow travelers. It's clean and comfortable, providing a welcoming atmosphere. While it's a bit far from the main tourist attractions, getting around by tuk-tuk is easy and convenient. It's truly one of the best hostels in Phnom Penh, and I can't wait to come back! Highly recommended for social travelers!

It is a super clean hostel, and with plenty of common spaces. However, I think it is for young backpackers with a high budget, because it is a lot of party and the hostel restaurant is expensive, I paid 8.20 USD for a breakfast that consisted of a double espresso plus two pieces of toast with avocado, tomato and one pouched egg... it is expensive.

The hostel has a great location near the riverside, it is rather cheap and the beds are solid and not squeaky. The common bathroom was clean enough.

The onederz hostel is the best destination a solo and small budget traveller could ask for. The hygiene is really good, the beds and bathrooms are really clean. The beds are big and there is free shampoo and soap in the bathrooms. I have been to the onederz hostel everytime I come to Phnom Penh for the week end (around 10 times). It is absolutely amazing. The rooftop is breath taking and the food is good and cheap.

This seems like a luxury backpacker's hostel. A dream for those who want to keep the budget, but at the same time want maximum comfort. Staff speaks good English, attentive, and explain everything clearly. Everything is very clean and it seems you're in a 3 star hotel with a pool, except you share your room with other travelers
