This nice hostel is located in the centre of Pucket town. Although the location is ok, there is actually nothing to do in Pucket town :). If you use Pucket as a transport hub this is a good place to stay. If you want to see something from the island, stay in another town. Hostel is clean and has a nice communal area. Staff speaks bad English however and not really helpful.

This centrally located accomodation is a party hostel, so don't go here if you want to have a clean and tidy room and good nights of sleep. The rooms are stuffed with the maximum number of beds and you should be really carefull with your belongings. However, I still really enjoyed this place. Mr. Local is indeed a cool guy and all travellers go partying together all night. Book in advance as the hostel was full every day.

Perfect hostel. I think it is pretty much the most beautiful building in town. Everything looks brand new and the rooftop bar is really great. I mean, how often does a hostel have live music at night? Brings great atmosphere! As Crabi hasn't got much alternatives for cheap accomodation you should really go here. I generally hate it when people review a hostel as 'one of the best hostels they've ever been' but I think this time a can't get around making this statement :)

This new hostel has a magnificient atmosphere located on a rice field just out of town. Beautifully architected bamboo dorms form a small village in this rice field. The communal area is a great place where all travellers gather in the evening to have a beer. Walking to town can become a bit annoying as distance is a bit too long. When you however plan to rent a motorcycle like most people do, this is no problem. Do not expect too much from breakfast.

This hostel is located in the city centre. However, it is still a 15 minute walk to the downtown area located more to the east. Also, during my stay there were actually two groups of people, regular backpackers and more alternative travellers, which had some impact on the atmosphere. I would howerever still recommend this hostel as it is no party place and very well affordable. Staff is also really eager to help you planning your tours.

This hostel has a great location and is clean. When I discovered after check-in that the AC was leaking on my bed, they directly gave me another bed, good service! They also offer some transportation options.
