The Explorers Guesthouse and Hostel Reviews

NIce hostel, with nice stuff and in a good location within the reaches of Chinatown and Little India and with good transport opportunities to other possible locations you might want to see within KL. A definite recommendation.

I often stay here. The location is great, close to Pasar Seni stop and 2 mins from Petaling St but its still in a quiet location. Lyn at the front desk is very friendly and helpful and answers all my questions, however mundane they may sometimes seem. The guy with the long hair who works at reception is still very arrogant and not so helpful but I try not to deal with him! Breakfast is simple but there are plenty of places close by to add to the breakfast they give you.

Great location for access to chinatown markets, within walking distance to bukit bintang. Clean rooms, spacious shared bathroom. Be aware there are a lot of stairs. WiFi works in the stairwell & rooftop is lovely at sunset.

Nice hostel right in the centre of the city, near chinatown. Very cosy lobby, with sofas and TV. Quite big rooftop terrace with a great view. Rooms and facilities are very clean and spacious. Didn't have any problems and would definitely recommend it

This is a fantastic hostel! Very well-informed, helpful staff, great location for backpackers, nice for meeting other travelers. There really is someone at the desk 24/7. After 30 hours of travel, I wanted nothing more than the pb and j they provide. I returned to this hostel each of the three times I was in KL throughout the course of my month in SEA because of its accessibility and helpful, cheerful staff. Definitely a great introduction to KL and SEA. Highly recommend.

Nice place to stay

Great hostel. Stayed one night in a 10 bed dorm - the showers were great, nice beds and good co minimal spaces to meet people. Nice collections of board games to. Only negative was the air conditioning was freezing! Woke up a lot in the night trying to set it to a good level!

Absolutely lovely hostel. Some rooms are without windows but since I am here just for sleeping its all right. Will definitively come back.

One of the best hostels I have ever stayed in! The staff are so friendly and helpful and the rooms are spacious, cool and clean. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in KL.

The room was without window and on the third flior without lift even if it was advertised with lift. We asked for a room with window bit they result to be all booked so not for us.

nice place to stay, strongly recommend.

The place is great, I deducted marks because , THERE ARE NO HOOKS OR HANGERS in room. I'm not the first one to mention this! Otherwise the the twin room was perfect.

Not a bad hostel, but not particularly friendly staff and it was lacking in a bar or social area. Good if you are looking for a quiet place to stay.

The location of this hostel is its best feature. Located right next to little India and China town, the hostel is surrounded by great and cheap places to eat. Besides the location, the hostel is solid in all other aspects and for the price, I would say it is a pretty good deal in KL.

Great friendly staff! Bedrooms are clean, lots of space, no windows (not the end of the world), bathrooms are also clean, free breakfast is a plus!, no wifi in the rooms, but you end up meeting people when you're downstairs in the common area. Excellent location, walking distance to restaurants and shops and chinatown

i really like the atmosphere and it's cleanliness, the staff are friendly and helpful, and it has a strategic location, so i would like to stay there again everytime i go to KL :)

Nice hostel in a very convenient area in Chinatown. Hostel is very big and hotellish, has 3 floors without elevator. Maybe better if you travel in a group, it was hard to meet new people, Wi-Fi only works at the lounge. Be sure to ask for a locker key during your check-in because very frustrating going up and down asking for it.

I lke this hostel, because it's very clean, the staff are very helpful and the location of the hostel is very good.

A perfect and relaxing place to be! And very clean!

it was a beautiful hostal but there is missing a bit of atmosphere.
