Red Palm Reviews

I loved my stay at Red Palm. Everyone was very helpful. I really appreciated the strong coffee, bananas, milk, dishes, and help from the staff. I will definitely be coming back! Kristy Kumar

Great staff,good location and great food right next door. Unbelievable resources there too. Dozens of lonely planets there that can be used to plan your next portion of your trip. Really sweet cats, as well. I'd stay there again. Only con is limited bathrooms. Only 2, but there aren't that many beds, so I never had a problem.

Very nice youth hostel with the best staff you can find. Rooms are very clean, the atmosphere is very pleasant.

nice little hostel in a very good location!! food street, bars, twin towers, shopping malls and china town all within walking distance!! the staff is great and really cares about their guests!!

Cosy place right next to the Jalan Alor food street and Bt Bintang shopping district. Pretty clean, though there are only 2 showers and the aircon is shared (the rooms are more like partitions than proper rooms). Helpful staff.

red palm hostel very best for backpacker

Great small hostel. Not for party purposes but who wants to have a convenient stay should go there

The manager is a lovely, helpful person. Staff are nice and location is great. Dorm is a little crowded. Finding it is a challenge as they have no sign. For some reason I was there and had no conversations with otehr travelers. A usual thing.

Friendly staff and helpful as well. :) i'm a bit allergic to cats generally so that's why i don't really hang out much in the common room! Shower is better down the common hall rather than the hot shower upstAirs :) but overall, good experience

Not really a hostel, feels more like a home for people travelling. Booking and subsequent communication at a very high level, very clear and concise directions as well as tips for sights in KL and all of Malaysia. I would recommend to anyone.

I love how helpful Sophie was to us, also I miss Tamar and Speedy. Hay, I wish I could have played with them more.

I love coming back to Red Palm, had my 4th stay in 4 years this time. Good relaxed atmosphere, clean, good bunk bed in the dorm, fast wifi, very nice people working there. My home in KL, and will be back at the Red Palm for sure when I go back to KL.

The rooms where basic but had what you needed. My main issue was the material over the top of the rooms. The material ceiling means you can hear everything from other rooms, this isnt great when your a light sleeper.

Great little guesthouse type hostel that has a nice spot considering its so close to the tourist nightlife area. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Lots of cheap food nearby - and definitely recommend next door at the Indian Restaurant TG's. Suuuuper cheap and tasty, open late. Front rooms do suffer from kitchen noise and smell due to nextdoor, but well worth ignoring for the price. Great value, cheap sleep. Some maintenance issues, but easily recommendable for the budget travellers.

Great people, neat and personal little guest house in the heart of KL. Clean and well-run. Offers a basic breakfast to get you started. People are attentive, give good advice and strive to make your experience a good one. Superb location just a few steps from one of KL's main streets for hawkers selling food in the evenings. Slightly dodgy surroundings with lots of offers for "massages" (which kind I was not sure) and a guy offering "Girls, Thai, Chinese". But I never felt unsafe.

The walls are paper thin. The bathroom was dirty and there were flies and cobwebs in the shower. The location was excellent. This might be a good place for one night.

This hostel is just great, very nice stuff and atmosphere, it's super cosy and you feel very welcome, I absolutely enjoyed my stay :)

The location is perfect, the place is nice and the managers very helpful ! Great time !

The staff was very helpful. They were so nice to us. For the room, it was a little bit dim but it's ok because of the concept. Red palm is located in busy area. Near to public places, that is why I love stayed here :)

Nice hostel on a great location. The average age of the people staying here (at least during my stay) is a little higher than I'm used to, too bad for me. I love to stay with other (young) travelers and hang/go out together. The travelers during my stay were quite individualistic. Too bad. All in all, the hostel is nice and cosy.
