I really enjoyed my time in Georgetown and love Reggae Penang. Its clean, festive, central, great staff, wonderful pod beds, free drinking water, free internet, great breakfast. The only problem is that its noisy at night and only quietens down really late.

The hostel is in an amazing location, is in a beautiful old building and has great pod style dorms. There is a great breakfast included. Everything is very clean. Overall, my fiance and I had a good stay. The one thing I disliked was that the staff were a little unfriendly and they recommended a terrible travel company for a... More

Fabulous ! Had a great stay here. Stayed in the 4 bedroom dorm with all females (I'm female!), and it was cozy, 4 little cubicles, you feel like you're sleeping in a big cupboard. A small window at the head, and big heavy curtains so you can close off to the world, and make it all dark for a midday... More

Loved the capsule-style bed in the dorm. Really appreciated the privacy. It also had a mirror, 2 power outlets, and a light. Staff were okay, a bit of communication problem with the english. Nice location in the middle of Georgetown. Hot showers, free wifi, it's got the basics. However the bar gets quite a bit noisy at night especially with... More

Very clean And friendly place. Good location. The only problem was the staff was not good at English at all other than the womAn who ran it who wasn't always there! When ordering food we had total confusion and also even checking in was a struggle because of the lack of understanding! Other than that the staff are very friendly... More

We stayed here for 3 nights. The location in Chinatown is good and the facilities new and clean with free wifi, although not available in the rooms. Overall service was ok but I wouldnt say great, although some staff were very friendly the owner was less so which was a little disappointing, also the price of drinks is pretty expensive... More

Having stayed in at least 100 hostels across the world this is easily among the top 5. The dorms are fantastic with "pods" instead of creaky bunks, complete with outlets, reading lights and curtains that make them dark as night during the day. It's not the cheapest option in town, but it's the nicest in the price range. As yellowboxfish10... More

Yes it's location is good but I found it a little expensive for what it is. Breakfast was poor, eggs well undercooked and 7 ringit for a glass of unfizzy sprite not even a can was a bit over priced. Won't be using their KL one
