Pineapple Guesthouse Reviews

it was a good place to stay. The free guide to the Big Buddah was a great day out. I really appreciated that. The only downside was the internet was down, but that was due to a fire somewhere else and was out of their control. The owner was working hard to resume the service. It was advertised as air con... but there was only fans (but you get your own for your bed).. We still enjoyed our time there

Can't fault this hostel. The location is fantastic - a 5 minute stroll to the beach - with lots of restaurants just around the corner. The staff are friendly and helpful and our room was serviced and bathroom cleaned every day. The owner, Steven was on hand to help us arrange an afternoon tour to take in the seashell museum (mum's idea, not mine) and negotiate with a driver and his manager Lek helped us book our onward travel to Koh Phi Phi.

Good hostel to start your vacation in Phuket and find your bearings. The internet connection was cut once a day when I was there but that's probably not the hostel's fault.

Great place, near the beach, not too far from Patong, (the happening place) and near resorts with pools and all of that. Friendly staff, decent breakfasts and great value. Another bargain.

Is this my 3rd or 4th stay here? As always, the Pineapple is safe, secure and welcoming. The dorm is a great place to meet other travellers. Inexpensive and well located. Highly recommended. Thanks to Lek and Steve for taking good care of me and my new friends. [Shopping tip: Family Mart across the road from the 7-Eleven is cheaper & quirkier, and the owner is friendlier than the 7-Eleven staff.]

Really enjoyed my stay... Chilled out vibe, stayed in dorm with a mix of all sorts and made some great friends!! Guaranteed value for money Adrian

My friends and I were very excited to find Pineapple online, and after looking through the photos we thought we had found a winner. We booked 5 nights online, but when we arrived we were very disapointed. Our room was upstairs across from the reception, and we had to walk through a storage closet to get there. The room was small, dark, and unfriendly. We just wanted a nice place to hang out after the beach, but would not have been able to relax here. Not cute, no character. We felt duped.

I only have brilliant things to say about Pineapple Guesthouse. I initially only booked a room here because it was one of the most affordable places with a twin room in the area, I wasn't expecting anything brilliant, but from moment saw the room I knew I had made a good choice! Steve and his family were very kind, helpful and welcoming, and the restaurant next door added the charm you don't find very often. It was a nice location close enough to whatever I needed! Thank You for everything!

A good option for people on a budget. It was nice that there were two restaurants close by as an option for breakfast. This was also a great place to meet fellow travelers as everyone I met there was really friendly.

Buses from Phuket Town stop sometime between 1730 and 1800. The bus is 30B, but if you miss the bus, the taxi is 500B. Pineapple is not a proper hostel, It's more like a hotel that happens to have a dorm. It's 5 minutes walk to the beach. Located on the Main street near delicious, cheap street food. Awesome food for 40-70B across the street from 7-Eleven. Really relaxed and laid back staff. So good, I extended another 3 nights.

I remember reading pretty good reviews for this place. Unfortunately, we had an average to poor experience. We had arranged for them to pick us up at the airport, but no one ever showed up. The room was fine and clean, but felt more like a motel than a hostel. I've stayed at much better.

Great place and great staff! Would definitely recommend. Ask Steve about the swimming pool deal he has with a posh local hotel!!!!!

Awesome place in karon, just 15mins outside patong, really nice beach aswell

Very very clean, Friendly staff and affordable. Free computer was a bonus

We booked for a few days and then were headed to Phuket City but then realized the beach is in our backyard, we got a great deal and this place was perfect so we stayed another 5 days!

Very clean, large, air-conditioned rooms with plenty of storage for very little money. Quite close to the beach and close to a lot of bars and restaurants. Excellent value and highly recommended.

Great hostel! Cheap and the rooms are very good. Comfy beds, air con, tv, clean...cant ask for more at such a cheap rate. Only a 5 min walk to the karon beach which is really nice and in close walking distance of supermarkets and restaurants. Would definately recommend staying here.

Excellent service, the room was comfy, and very clean! the stuff was nice, willing to help, and we could even borrow an umbrella! Good location, close to the beach, restaurants, stores, 7/11, money changer and a main avenue. 100% recommended!

Really nice and clean hostel - We stayed in a private room which was very big and cleaned every day. The owners are very nice and always willing to help. It is on a 2-3 min walk from the beach and night life. Can be noisy with the karaoke bar across the road. I would stay here again.

Pinapple guesthouse has big rooms, with TV and wifi available. It is very close to the beach (10 min walking) and cheap. We were not very happy with the service though because we asked for a pick up from the airport but nobody came.
