    Probably the best hostel you could pick in Phuket town. Ning is an outstanding host, very welcoming and helpful. She will always try to do her best to help and advise (if you ask her). The place is clean at all time, beds are comfy, modern and give a good privacy a bit like a capsule hotel. The location is also great, pretty quiet for Phuket town but right near one of the most beautiful street.

    This place is a must stay! Ning has setup everything for guests comfort. AC is running properly so the lobby is cool, you have free snacks and drinks, very comfortable wide and curtained beds. Place looks brand new and very clean.

    This is a very good hostel ! This place is super cosy, great beds and curtains on each of them, quiet dormitories, A/C, really clean and nice bathroom, beautiful and cosy common area. The landlord, Nin, is super welcoming and will do everything to help you (advices, laundry, arrange taxi, print plane tickets). She is even offering free tea, coffee and biscuits. I was impressed that she is so involved ! She knows the name of everyone by heart !! And the localization of the place is perfect to visit the beautiful Phuket old town by walking. Thank you so much, I'll be back !!!

    It's a great hostel in Phuket's old town. I stayed in this hostel for 2 days, and the reception was very good and the managers were both nice and friendly. Everything at this hostel is good. It has good security and it's a great place to hang out with other people. They also provide free snacks in the morning. It's pretty close to many stores and restaurants, and it is closer to the pier to get to the Phi Phi Islands. The rooms are very clean, and the bathrooms are also very neat and clean. I think it is the best place to stay in old Phuket Town, and if I ever come back, it will be my first priority to stay at this hostel.

    The best hostel I've been to( and I been to quite a few). Extremely clean common areas, a comfortable bed with curtains. The best part about the hostel is it's owners. They give awesome suggestions for day trips and always make you feel at home.

    The day before arriving, the hostel contacted me to confirm arrival. When we arrived, We were warmly welcomed by Phii Ning. She is very friendly and witty. She helped us to rent a motorbike, also gave recommendations for the best beaches and food while in Phuket. In the morning, Phii Ning offers Thai (snack) food. When we checked out she had to get up very early and we were given a cute souvenir. Let's talk about hostels! The location is very strategic, being at a fork in the road and parallel to Thalang Street. You don't even need to rent a motorbike, because this hostel is parallel to the streets of unique and famous spots. Then, it's not far from the 7-11, while to the Bus Terminal it takes less than 10 minutes by foot. For one room there are 8 beds. There is a socket to charge the cellphone battery. Towels, blankets and pillows are provided. The mattress is quite soft and there are curtains. Each floor has a locker, but we didn't use it. You will not feel hot, because AC is work! There are two washrooms and a toilet on each floor. There are also two sink/wastafels outside the room with two mirrors. You can also use a hairdryer. Always looks clean and organized. On the first floor, there is a shared kitchen. The lobby is very comfortable and homey. For those of you who smoke, a place is provided on the hostel terrace. We got a pretty affordable price for a few nights staying in this hostel.

    Perfectly placed in the centre of Phuket old town for people wanting a non-party/calmer experience. The host is warm and the dorms are super clean and comfortable. She also helped us book a transfer to pier and phi-phi. Enough options to rent a vehicle and eat nearby. For people coming from airport, take the Airport Bus, Old Town bus stop is 200-300m from this place. Also if you wish to go towards Patong, prefer the Old town bus terminal as public transport is extremely cheap but requires some effort.

  • 1/5 Eric Z. 10 months ago on Google
    In my opinion, it was an unpleasant experience due to several reasons: 1. The vibe were unfriendly, and we felt in our case lack concern for the customers. 2. If you do not want to subject yourself to discomfort, avoid the triple room as the mattress is hard and extremely uncomfortable. 3. The triple room's location next to the shared bathroom leads to noise disturbance from 6AM onwards. 4. Some rooms are situated above a cafe or bar which causes excessive noise, and there may be a risk of exposure to asbestos roofing. 5. Excessive light enters the triple room since there is no shade inside. 6. Shoes are not allowed inside, which is typical of Thailand, but the cleanliness standards are poor, and walking barefoot on dirty floors before entering your room is inevitable.

    We had a lovely stay at baan baan hostel. The room was spacious, with good aircon. The staff were really lovely. We booked a ferry to Koh Phi Phi with them and were able to get transport to the pier too. The hostel is in a great location in the old town. We walked just 5 minutes to the Phuket Indy Market which as very cool!

  • 5/5 Mark C. 2 months ago on Google • 45 reviews New
    Good basic hostel at a good location, perfect for visiting the night markets and the lady who runs it will sort out all your tours and transfers anywhere . She even drove us to the boat port.

  • 4/5 Clare T. 7 months ago on Google • 15 reviews
    The staff is not welcoming or inviting. It's very apparent that you are an interruption to their day of K-Drama viewing. When asked about the local area, we were simply told it's down the street. (It's too much to expect a little guidance).

  • 1/5 Ana G. 3 months ago on Google • 13 reviews New
    I booked a private room and it was not worth the value at all. It was dirty and had a strong smell of mold so I ended up having to stay elsewhere. Thankfully the host was nice and gave me a half refund. I’m not sure why this place has a high rating. I wouldn’t recommend it.

  • 1/5 Roni A. 10 months ago on Google
    Really disappointed. Even though we had read many positive reviews, we were shocked by our experience sleeping in the private room. The mattress was incredibly hard and extremely uncomfortable - making it impossible to get any rest at all throughout the night. The room was also very small and outdated. Additionally, the room was situated next to the public bathroom of the dorms, meaning that we heard every footstep. In addition, the staff was not particularly friendly.

  • 5/5 Beryl G. 1 year ago on Google
    Always love bed-lights, charging sockets, hooks in the showers, free coffee & biscuits. Also the blankets get washed regularly!

  • 5/5 Dushyant s. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the most amazing hostel in Phuket Old town. 1.) Amazing location and vibes of Phuket Old town. 2.) Neat and clean Dorms and washrooms. 3.) MoMo was our caretaker at the property. She was very helpful with check-ins. 4.) Complimentary morning coffee with some amazing cookies :) 5.) Clean and cozy common space to chill out. 6.) Kitchen area with utensils, microwave and gas stove to cook your meals. 7.) Walking distance from Phuket Terminal 1 bus stand if you are using local transport from Airport. Overall I had a great experience here and would love to visit again here in future. Khaawp khun

    Absolutely loved it. Moved by their hospitality. Rooms are neat & clean and come at affordable rates. The only concern is that it's situated near Old Town Phuket and there isn't much happening around.

  • 5/5 Giorgia B. 9 months ago on Google • 6 reviews
    I stayed here 2 nights separately and was one of my best stay in all my trip. First of all is a quiet hostel so don’t expect to be a party vibe or whatever. The room was very clean, the beds have their own curtain which create a little bit of privacy. The bathroom as well I can’t complain was so clean. I left also my backpack for 2 weeks there even if there’s not a luggage storage, they kept it and when I came back it was still there so absolutely a safe place. Also perfect location and really kind staff.

  • 5/5 Mateo Rejón L. 1 month ago on Google • 6 reviews New
    Great and clean rooms in the middle of the city center. We arrived late because of the airport and they waited for us till 23:45 to do the check in. Lovely and helpful stuff!

  • 4/5 WG S. 1 year ago on Google
    Very good hostel: clean and comfy. Only drawback is the noise from the street: woke up several times due to trucks passing by in the middle of the night.

  • 4/5 Alexandra I. 1 year ago on Google
    It was a nice hostel with very friendly and trustworthy staff ❤️ who are always there to help!!! The hostel is 50 mins away from the beaches and transportation in Phuket is bad and expensive (on Grab or Bolt) so be weary of that.

  • 5/5 Chee Hwa T. 1 year ago on Google
    I stayed at the 8-bed dormitory. The room is nice, with a curtain for each bed, so you do have some privacy and the lights from the other beds did not affect me much. The facilities are fine, two shower rooms and two toilets on the second floor. The locker and towel is provided. The lobby is cozy and nice to hangout with fellow travellers. The service is good, with free flow of water, some fruits and snacks, coffee, tea and hot water. Special thanks to Kollick and Ning for their hospitality and their eagerness to help to ensure we have a great travel experience. Very friendly and great place to stay when exploring Phuket Town.

  • 5/5 Rachel C. 1 year ago on Google
    We stayed here for one night during our trip to Phuket (private room) Ning is a nice host and helpful. Private room we get is located at second floor with staircase.. aircon and hot water is working and the location is just perfect (next to the park with golden dragon)

  • 5/5 Coffee n’ P. 1 year ago on Google
    Really a nice lil place to stay. The hostess and owner of the hostel is very lovely as well as informative!! She was able to give me many options on what tour packages to book, where to eat and even the plant and flowers ;) shops that were close. I give is a Big G for good value and comfort. Also, the hostel has a nice front lobby as a social place.

  • 5/5 Mei M. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 HEMANT D. 1 year ago on Google
    Awesome place,cozy rooms and clean. Nini the owner is a vibe. She is a very cheerful and happy girl. Helpful and very kind. Had a short stay here but was wonderful..

  • 5/5 Rowanne D. 1 year ago on Google
    I would strongly recommend any travellers to stay here if staying in the Old Town in Phuket. It's such a lovely hostel and Ning the owner is the nicest and kindest woman, she is so helpful and welcoming, gave great suggestions of where to go and helped with trips. She has discounts for many excursions too. The common area and location is great, and the drinks/snacks and breakfast she provides are lovely. I would come here again without a doubt

  • 5/5 Aaron S. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the best hostels I have ever stayed at. The owner is incredibly friendly and energetic, and will do whatever she can to make your stay fun, comfortable, and convenient. Great place to make friends and have a blast in Phuket.

  • 5/5 Chelsea _. 1 year ago on Google
    Love love LOVE this hostel ! Very clean, spacious hostel and the lady who works there is the most beautiful kindest helpful person ever ! I left my passport there by accident, and she was sweet enough to offer to send it to me by mail. Couldn’t recommend here enough, great a/c, wifi works well, clean bathrooms with soap, towel provided and lockers are also there which is perfect. Cheap as well !

  • 5/5 Sarah J. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Christian O. 4 years ago on Google
    Very nice, clean and cozy hostel in old town. Everything you need is nearby and you can also walk to nightmarkets. The owners were so friendly, it feels just like home :)

  • 5/5 Brian F. 6 years ago on Google
    This hostel is definitely worth a stay. Ping and Bow are incredibly nice hosts who go above and beyond to insure that their guests have an exceptional stay. The bedrooms and facilities are kept immaculately clean and everything is nice and new.

  • 4/5 Charles L. 5 years ago on Google
    Cleanliness: 4/5 Location: 4/5 Hospitality: 4/5 Breakfast: 4/5 Breakfast is simple but offers variety. I like how they also serve bite size Thai desserts for breakfast too. Great for those who would like to try. Common room is cozy and there is a guitar for those who can play. For the price I've paid, this is easily the best bang of the buck.

  • 5/5 Tyler S. 5 years ago on Google
    This hostel is modern, clean, has an amazing staff, and great amenities. I really enjoy hostels that have a blackout/lightproof curtain for your bunk, which this one has. In your bunk you also get a shelf, a light, and an outlet. Comfortable beds. Very nice toilets and showers. Shampoo and soap provided. Host at reception gave us amazing food recommendations which were all spot on and super cheap as well :) Thank you Baan Baan!

  • 5/5 Patric F. 5 years ago on Google
    Wonderful place and knowledgeable staff. For the price, the accommodation is quite nice. The entire hostel is exceptionally clean and quiet. The bunks are sectioned off for your privacy and the communal area is cozy and a good place to meet other travelers. The breakfast offers fruits and sticky rice along with coffee/tea. They also provide free water! The location is pretty great too! It's a 25 min walk to monkey hill and mins to Old Phuket.

  • 5/5 Jonathan R. 5 years ago on Google
    The owner here is incredibly nice. She allowed me to leave my bag after I checked out while I went on an excursion. The curtains on the beds are nice and come with their own light and plug. Lockers are locked with your room key, which I didn't find them that safe but as long as your not storing $2000 I think your alright. Place is clean. Showers are clean and hot. Great location to Phuket Town.

  • 5/5 Enrique N. 4 years ago on Google
    By far the best hostel i’ve been in during my 1 month trip around Thailand. The owners of the hostel are really nice and help you in everything you need. The rooms are really comfy and the social area is very cool. The stay includes breakfast, which was really good.
