PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION BELOW TO CHECK THAT WE’RE THE RIGHT FIT FOR YOU!

SnapStay Hoi An is your cosy, one-stop, home away from home in the UNESCO World Heritage site of Hoi An Ancient Town. Located just 150m from the Old Town and right along one of Hoi An’s local food streets, we’re a social, laid-back hostel, co-working café and community hub for independent travellers, solo backpackers, flashpackers and groups of friends looking for good people, good conversations and an authentic Vietnamese experience.

We know solo travel can be life-changing, but it can also be lonely at times. That’s why we’re all about bringing people together and creating an environment where connections happen naturally. Whether you’re joining our Vietnamese language classes, Banh Mi Party, SnapStay Quiz, Board Games Night, Karaoke Night, Family Dinners or simply hanging out in our common spaces, there are plenty of ways to meet fellow travellers and make new friends.

Think social, not rowdy. We enjoy having fun together, but we’re not the place for partying until sunrise every night. Our guests tend to be independent travellers who enjoy meeting people, sharing experiences and having a few good drinks or laughs, while still appreciating a comfortable place to relax and get a good night’s sleep.

We also understand that not every traveller is looking for the same thing. If you’re feeling travel-weary, looking for a quiet retreat or simply not in the mood to meet and mingle, maybe give us a miss! ;P Socialising is a big part of the SnapStay experience, so if you’re keen to connect with fellow travellers, you’re much more likely to feel at home here.

Come for Hoi An.
Snap. Stay. Connect.
Leave with a few good stories and hopefully some new friends.

Great location, spotless hostel, brilliantly run. What really made the stay was Ernest, you can just feel how much passion he puts into this place. He genuinely cares about his guests and makes sure everyone feels looked after, that energy sets the tone for the whole hostel and makes you want to actually engage with the other travelers instead of keeping to yourself. Loads of social activities in the evening too, felt like a home away from home.

Easily best hostel I stayed in my life. It’s a very social hostel. Everyday there are special group events based on the vibe of the people in the hostel. During my stay we had a quiz and a Bahn Mi eating event. All the staff calls you by name and it feels like a home. Thank you SnapStay Team! If you want to be for yourself and not interact socially, this hostel is not for you. For everyone else, it’s the best choice you can take, if you are keen for a chill and mature hostel experience.
