The best hostels in Phuket Town

Some of the best backpacker spots in Phuket Town

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.

We are on a world tour and this was by far the cleanest and most organized hostel we stayed in. Our room, toilet, bathroom, and corridors were extremely clean. We started the day with a wonderful smell of cleanliness every day. The staff was very helpful, always smiling and warm-hearted. We loved this place. We even extended it for 1 more day and didn't want to leave. Definitely choose it. Rabbitel Phuket is a clean, safe and quiet place.

This is the best hostel in Phuket in the old town. I highly recommend for solo travelers. Nearby there are streets for walking and a bus station. It is very comfortable.

The location was perfect .. a short walk to the main cool Old Town streets. The staff were helpful and courteous. The facilities were great including a pool, beer fridge, book swap, kitchen. I had a room to myself which was well equipped although the stairs up to the loft bed were very step .. needed to be very careful going up and down. A really good hostel catering for both backpacker and older traveller which I am one. Felt safe and comfortable there.

Great location as it was really close to the shops and cafes. Hostel itself was really nice and felt super safe. Clean and comfy beds and nice shower and toilet area which never felt busy. A cafe fronts the hostel and it’s really nice, the staff were great and have pictures giving recommendations for Phuket. One staff member was super helpful, writing an allergy card in Thai that we’ve used across Thailand.
