Two-Night Stay Before We Flew Back To Manila”

I booked this hostel for our two-nights city tour in Yangon after we came from a Bagan. The place is within downtown Yangon and near Sule Pagoda, Chinatown and within walking distance to Bogyoke Aung San Market and Yangon Central Train Station (for the Circular Train experience!) The rooms are clean and private and as well as the shared bathrooms. They have a common room and small breakfast area with unlimited coffee, juice and water refill. They serve lighy breakfast for free - egg and toast or pancakes. We arrived at 8am and the staff were accommodating they let us stay in the common area so we can rest, have access to the internet, shared bathrooms and coffee! There is a mini grocery beside the hostel where I bought my pasalubong - wafers, chocolates, rice cookies, and noodles! You can take a short taxi ride to shwedagon pagoda and kandawgyi lake if you dont want to walk. Will stay here again if I have the chance. 💕

Lot of Hostel for small money”

Located in downtown Yangon the Backpacker Hostel is a small but nice hostel. The space is used pretty intelligent, so you have a dorm with a lots of beds. Sounds at first annoying but each one is a little cabin surrounded by curtain, so that you feel more like on a cruise then in a budget place to stay. The sheets and the room are extremely clean and in good condition. The included breakfast has 2 options, both are tasteful. Only the common area is a bit dark, but you're there to discover the city, so this doesn't really matter.

Perfect new hostel”

This is a brand new hostel located in downtown Yangon. We really loved our two nights here, we could left our backpack here for all day while we went to Golden Rock. Everything in the hostel is brand new, there are many toilets, showers and sinks. Wi-fi works very well and the staff is always keen to help. Very nice and enjoyable stay, well recommended.

A Bargain but Could Still Improve”

I stayed for 6 nights and it was a good experience but it could be better. My room is quite small and nice but it is damp due to lack of airflow and can get smelly sometimes (the smell came from the water control room next to my room). The hostel can do a small adjustment to the room like adding a small ventilation for airflow and redone the wall that separate the room and the water control room. I also would like to suggest that the hostel to provide foot mat in each room and change the bathroom foot mat regularly. For overall the hostel is good. The price is one of the best offer in town because it includes breakfast with different options everyday. Location is great, it is easy to find and many tourist attractions are in walking distance from the hostel. There is a 24hrs convenience store nearby and several local restaurants with reasonable prices also there is a money changer (next to the tea shop in the corner of the street) with one of the best rate in entire Yangon.

Good place to stay”

I stayed in a single room — it was very comfortable. The bathrooms were the cleanest of the hostels in Myanmar I've been to. Staff was super nice and helpful; they let me check-in early without extra charge. (I checked out at 7.00am, and overheard the staff tell a group of travelers that they could check in then. At 7.00am! A few other hostels charge for early check-in.) This will probably be my go-to hostel the next time I'm in Yangon.

Exceptional”

Good value with the price, worth the money. I will stay this hostel again if I travel to Yangon in the future. The staffs friendly and helpful, enough size of bed for relaxing after discovering around Yangon. The bathroom was clean. Breakfast was good with us.

Great place to stay with good price ”

One of my favourite B&B hostel in Yangon. Good staff and Good Place to stay with study room which is so convenient for me to study sometimes. Best thing is showering with hot water and using WiFi. Breakfast is also nice for me. Overall I will definately staying here for my stay in Yangon.

Great value for money! ”

The location of this hostel is great, close to many bars, restaurants and culture. The beds are among the comfiest in Yangon. The staff is friendly and speak great English. This hostel is also very clean with hot water! My go-to hostel in Yangon!

Great!”

I usually stay just a few nights in a hostel, then do a hotel for a few nights to recoop, but I ended up just extending my stay in the hostel multiple times! They also have nice private rooms, too! Friendly staff as soon as you come in, they help you book any tickets you need for your trip through Myanmar. The pod style beds are great for privacy, they are also comfy, and you get a pretty big locker underneath with a lock included. And "valuables lockers" in the lobby for you to use, also. Free breakfast; it's not extravagant, but it's nice. The upstairs area that breakfast is served is available to use all day. You can work on your laptop, chill with friends, watch TV, whatever in that area. Bathrooms are clean, and the water is HOT (huge plus for me, I can't stand cold showers). It's downtown, nearish the river, close to a bus path, close enough to walk to whatever you would like. Can't recommend this hostel enough!

Do not hesitate. This is the place to stay in Yangon. ”

Clean, comfortable, private and excellent AC that is on all day and night. I am a solo traveller. I was involved in a traffic accident in Yangon and unfortunately aquired some bad injury's. The staff were kind and comforting and the excellent facilities allowed me to be as comfortable as possible. I only left to be closer to the hospital during my recovery. (i am not fit to fly) Yangon is a great city full of character and excellent people; albeit some terrible drivers. Thank you!! 🙏🙏

Best hostel in yangon”

Many times staying, good breakfast and very clean hostel. Always my first choice whenever in yangon. Price is good and walking distance to salon, food, airport bus etc........ Very friendly staffs.

This place is a steal for the money”

The staff here is incredible. The only downside to this hostel is there isn’t much of a “hangout spot”. But the beds are so comfortable and they are literally cleaning all hours of the day. I currently live in Myanmar and this is my go-to when I come to Yangon.

more than a value for your money”

we stayed in triple room for one night and everything was great. room and facilities were clean, unlimited coffee until 11:30pm, staff were accommodating, 2 options for breakfast and location is okay. we weren’t able to try but their reception has a lot of information to offer regarding tours in and outside Yangon.

Will stay again”

Staff are friendly and speak good English. Complimentary breakfast offers a choice of 2 menu. Located near Yangon Central, walking distance from Sule Pagoda, Sule Square, Junction City, Central Railway Station. Convenience stores and local restaurants along same road. However, there is a rust smell from the shower and basin tap water, perhaps this can be improved.

Great value! ”

Stayed here for a night. It's cleaner than expected. Staff cleans toilet almost every hour (I should know, i stayed near the toilet)I love how it is near to everything in order to experience a true Yangon life. Staff were willing to answer questions and offer help ( I asked to print my bus ticket going to Bagan). very accessible whether by Cab or Grab Car. I would definitely stay here again!

Excellent Accommodation !”

For the price, the hostel really exceeded my expectation. The hostel location is situated near major attraction. The room is partition so do note that rooms are not sound proof. The room and toilet was also kept clean all the time & the common area was really a pleasant place to relax and chit chat with other travelers and also for you to dine at. Breakfast was also good with 2 choices and fruits. Coffee & Tea, Water cooler was all there. Myanmar got the nicest people i have met. Staff are friendly and helpful. Beautiful people ! Thank you so much for such a pleasant stay

Value for money”

The cleanest in all of the backpacker hostels I have ever stayed. Clean bed, towel, blanket and toilet. The bedsheets and blanket can be changed upon request (and I changed them frequently). A good shower and a hot shower (this is really good). Near St. Mary Cathedral, British Council, Australian Embassy and Botahtaung Jetty and pagoda. Worth the money.

One of the best hotels I’ve been”

Everything’s very clean. It smells new paint and detergent. Beds and pillows are comfortable and the curtains in the bunks provide intimacy. Staff is super helpful, providing services like in a hotel, they confirm bus rides for you, call airlines, install SIM cards, recommend attractions... Breakfast is very good and filling in a cozy breakfast room. I recommend this hostel to anyone arriving in beautiful Myanmar.

Really nice hostel & staff”

we liked our stay at backpacker hostel in a double bedroom as a couple. The room was a little small but enough for us and the price. The shared bathrooms was really clean, big and mostly used only by us. The location is pretty good. We mostly walked everywhere. The staff is really nice and helpful, the breakfast was good and there were free drinks all day long.

Good place”

It is a pretty basic place, I would say, but it has anything you need. The rooms are functional. Not very beautiful, most of them don't have windows, but on the other hand you can sleep like a rock there. It would be cool to have something like a meeting point, like a bar or something like that, to get in touch with the other travellers, but that is only a suggestion. Maybe you should look for something else, if you are looking for something special for your honeymoon, but if you only need a centrally located place to kip in Yangon, it's perfectly fine.
