Hanoi Backpackers Hostel Reviews

Great cheap place to say, excellent staff, highly recommend doing the halong bay tour!

The staff make the place !! had a wkd time , the rooms r clean ! the breakfast could of been better but ur more and likly to sleep through it on ur mssive hang over !! Defo worth stayin at the first one its smaller u get talkin to everyone and its a better attmosphere !

I reviewed this hostel once but stayed there again, so I'll keep this short... Don't be one of the travelers who hears their whole trip about how amazing this place, because you booked another hostel instead. This place is legendary in "South East Asia", go and enjoy!

This place had a great atmosphere, the free breakfast and wifi was a huge plus. Definitely enjoyed it and would return again, hopefully to do the Castaways trip next time.

A little bit difficult to find the hostel when we first arrived Hanoi, but feel quite easy after walking around the surroudings, very colse to the Hoàn Kim. We stayed in the 4 dorms room, and it's quite small but not bad, cool and clean. The public bathroom is clean and I've seen the staff clean it several times.

I think Hanoi it is not the most amazing place on earth, but you are probably going there to visit Halong Bay. Then you will be on the right hostel, they got the Castaway($$$) trip to a private island that you just gonna love it. Be prepared to spend most of your time drunk and meet loads of people. (!!!) Amazing place, free wifi and nice bar upstairs. You feel very welcomed. Not very cheap food on the bar, but great quality! Did meet my needs!

Awesome hostel

Great Hostel, good service and staff. Very helpful and supportive about any kind of questions. We would choose this one every time again.

Nice hostel. A little noisy if you're not into the meeting-new-friends-as-you-travel thing. Very kind and helpful staff.

The staff at this hostel make the stay completely worthwhile. There are events organised every night, which is great if you travel alone. I didn't really enjoy hanoi as a city, but staying here made the stop very enjoyable! Would highly recommend to anyone thinking about going to hanoi!

If you like to party, this hostel is for you. I don't, so my experience wasn't pleasant. I like to relax peacefully, maybe with a drink or two, but not a party, at the end of a day (especially in Hanoi)... This was not possible here. Also, I arranged for an airport transfer with this staff (for 430 am) and after having dually confirmed the transfer the night before they forgot to arrange it for me, so I was 50 minutes late leaving the hostel and I almost missed my flight to Hue.

Great place to stay in Hanoi. Central location, easy to meet people, the female dorms were very clean and nice. We also booked our Halong Bay and Sapa tours with the hostel. Had an amazing time.

Nice spot to stay in, nice rooms and staff very friendly in regards to planning out our trips for us and giving advice!!

Staff, great. Food, great. Memories, great. If after a party, this is the place for you. We had the time of our lives on the Bar Crawl and Castaway Cruise, and still got a good nights sleep. I really can't rate this hostel highly enough. Met some great people. Staff were awesome, bar the local staff who were abrupt and unhelpful.

Fantastic hostel to meet people, chill, party, and whatever it is you're looking for. Facilities were fantastic, but the only downside is the internet is generally quite dodgy

Really good social place. Has some high quality tours ran by the hostel. Location might not be as great as the other hostels in this chain but it's also not as loud/busy which was nice. You get many chances to meet other travellers from all locations. Quality rooms with large secure lockers for each bed.

The owner is awesome!! The hostel was nice. The only downside is that we had to stay in the second hostel rather than the main hostel (this might be for private rooms). This second hostel did not have a cafe area or very good wifi. On a side note, there is a great booking agency across the room (Anna's booking), she is friendly and will give you an awesome price!

Really enjoyed my stay here. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Only thing was that it was january and quite cold, and for the first couple of days there was no heating, so it was very cold there. The free breakfast included was great, and there was a nice roof top bar. They also provided a great travel desk

Really cool, good food and people, great showers.

We enjoied your friendly treatment. Thank you!
