About

What started out as a concept for a traveler’s space has now become the heartbeat of a neighborhood turned capital-of-cool. Locals and visitors have seen the best of Manila skyline up in our world-renowned roofdeck, have met travel-buddies-now-lifelong-friends inside our dorm rooms, and have experienced the brand of fun only Filipinos can bring out at any time. This is Z Hostel --- a new generation of travel accommodation that is transforming the hospitality industry: more interactive, more social, more human.

Carefully curated events are happening every night at the roofdeck and in the neighboring establishments promoting local arts, music, and culture. Enjoy our free walking tour with free welcome drink during our sunset sessions as well as movie nights and beer pong. For Z, socialization is the new sleep. And while every traveler’s comfort is valued, Z is foremost a social venue.

The rooftop bar felt dead when I was there. The room was very hot, moist, and a bit smelly. There are no curtains which is a big no for me. The shower pressure was really bad but the hot water was great! The staff are super nice and the downstairs cafe has excellent coffee. You can’t really sleep peacefully because of loud music from neighboring clubs/ bars/ / hostel. The location is good.
