The Neighbors Hostel - Adults Only

Excellent location right on the street which has a night market every Sunday. I had a private room and could control the Aircon myself. Everything was very clean and the common bathrooms were very agreeable. Soap, shampoo and towels were supplied. Good WiFi. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. They were also very helpful with making the TM30 form for me for visa extension. The restaurant downstairs is superb and is a must try, at least for breakfast. 2 outside DSA tables as well. It was nothing I didn't like

The bathroom was not so clean and alittle smelly. The rooms were clean enough but are due for an upgrade.

The wifi was quite weak.

One of the worst hostel experiences of my life. I saw a giant cockroach and a small lizard in the bathroom area, which made using the bathroom very scary afterward. There were only two toilets and two showers per floor, and they were not very clean. When I was trying to sleep, two male roommates came in smelling strongly of weed. I did not feel safe and would not recommend this place.

First of all, Neighbours Kitchen is a very popular bar and restaurant in Phuket Old Town—so popular that advance reservations are usually required. They have two dorm rooms on the first floor. So I wouldn’t strictly call it a hostel. Location: The location is perfect, right in the heart of Phuket Old Town. The moment you step outside, you’re surrounded by beautiful streets, cafés, and vibrant local life—everything is within walking distance. Property & Comfort: I had one of the most comfortable beds here and ended up sleeping 10–12 hours. The bathrooms were clean and well maintained. There was no hot water, but honestly, in Phuket’s weather, you don’t miss it at all. Overall, a decent place if you want to stay in a central location for a night There is no common room or dedicated space for travelers to sit and relax, as the property is primarily a bar and is almost always busy. Without a common area, it’s difficult to interact with fellow travelers. Your only real options are to go out or stay in your bed. As a solo traveler, I usually enjoy socializing in a common space, which was missing here. On my second day, a group of seven boys stayed in my dorm room. They were extremely loud, and multiple alarms kept ringing continuously for almost an hour, which was quite frustrating and disruptive.

Staff were really friendly and helpful. The hostel itself is in a really good location in the heart of Phuket old town. It is quite a unique set up for a hostel, the front is a cafe/restaurant and you come through the back for the hostel. The dorms weren’t the coziest or nicest but definitely copeable, I had 2 very decent sleeps there. Showers were good, water pressure was mental - almost too good. Not a whole lot, but I also didn’t love it if I’m honest. But you get what you pay for, it’s cheap and cheerful!

Everything is adorable and a great choice for a solo traveller

The room was moldy had no windows and they turn off the air conditioner reducing ventilation from makeshift to dystopian.

Location, and cafe No air in room and air conditioner opening only from 6 pm to 8 pm, not breathable in room without windows and any ventilation systems. It is very uncomfortable. And cash deposit for keys, I want to pay everything with card.

The room has black mould. That's not good.

except that the room was has street view and no Double glazed window! So we were literately sleeping in the street!?

All of the staff made me feel very welcome. Felt like a rockstar every time I entered the place and being welcomed by everyone with a friendly smile. They explain everything really well and offer tickets as well as tours and you can ask them anything. Especially Ploy and San and BM were super helpful and warm hearted? (the others also but I didn’t ask for all of their names) If you are sensitive to traffic noises like me you should bring earplugs to rest peacefully.

Any questions or such,all of them are more than happy to help out. It is always clean as they do several rounds. Thank you to all

Too much noise coming from the street, cars and loud music from cafe and shops. The windows are old wooden ones and closing them makes no difference. No hangers/place to put your towel and soap in the bathroom

Nice location and clean. Friendly staff

Quite and cheap and clean They should provide locker for guests

Bed, ac No hot water, ac only runs from 7pm to 9am, ladder to get to top bunk doesn’t have enough rungs

Good location but very loud. The staff was helpful and friendly. This place is not good at all! The whole place has an awful sewage smell. The water in the shower only worked for 2 minutes before it ran out. My bed was like concrete and the floors were really dirty. The whole bathroom has mold and is very unclean with no toilet paper in the stalls. They wouldn’t give us towels without paying extra. We stayed in a private room, I can’t imagine how much the hostel beds sucked in comparison.

There is only one bathroom on the floor which is open and mixed (no girls only bathroom) and the showers didn’t look very clean. It gets hot during the day because they only turn on the ac in the night.

Smiling and welcoming staff is this hostel's best asset. Central location. Affordable price (but it still doesnt compensate for the shortcomings, as there are cheaper hostels in Phuket providing more). I have stayed in a dozen of hostels in Phuket, and this one felt most overrated. I was happy to leave after one night to another place (normally, i would extend), without ever even using the unappealing bathroom for instance. No toilet paper was provided, and they charge 30 baht for towel rental. These are not the only negative comparisons to what other Phuket hostels provide as standard - this one has the earliest checkout (11, while others have 12), they take 200 baht for a key deposit, they have the shortest AC time (from 7 pm to 9 am), they dont offer water refill, or real common area (besides the overpriced bar on the ground level). In rooms, privacy curtains cover only a half of the bed - what is their point? Bed cover is bare, not dressed in any washable material, so i honestly wondered whether that even gets changed between guests.
