Hub Of Joys Hostel

5 Jeremy Lacey - 4 months ago

Hub Of Joys is a lovely hostel with a wonderful manager. The building is well maintained plus the rooms and common area are clean. There’s a number of excellent restaurants nearby (even in low season) and there’s a medical clinic close by if that’s something you need. There is beach access maybe 2 mins away, and the section of the beach is pretty clean and very picturesque. If you want to rent scooters, they are reasonably priced and appear to be well maintained.

One of the big bright spots here is the complimentary breakfast of fresh fruit, eggs made to order, and various other snacks. It was delicious and helped reduce our costs throughout the day. The other particularly bright spot is the manager, Rah. She is a very nice person who can help you with any part of your trip, including giving travel advice and booking connections/tours. I can’t recommend Hub Of Joys enough.

Great hostel experience for 3 nights - warm and helpful hosts who are very accommodating.

Fantastic value for money, good beds in well sized air-conditioned dorms. Bathrooms adequate. Cherry on the top is the free breakfast (choice of eggs plus noodles and pastries as well as tea/coffee)

Bike rental and the transfer service
could be improved but this seems to be an external issue (old bikes and complicated transfer routes through external companies)

Hostel owner is there for you all the time and knows everything.
The rooms are wonderful.
Everything a backpacker could possibly wish for.
Free breakfast and a cheap motorbike rental in the hostel.

We have enjoyed our stay here so much. The people were all so welcoming and extremely generous. The atmosphere was very calming and it almost felt like a little family :) we also really enjoyed the food. Above all it was an amazing experience staying at your resort !! We have absolutely no complains and would definitely recommend it! much love from Germany :))

One of the BEST hostels I’ve stayed at in Thailand! It’s very clean, beds are comfy and the social area is a great size. They even have Netflix which is perfect for rainy days!

The complimentary breakfast is such good value for money - eggs cooked to order, a fruit plate per person, toast, tea/coffee/juice, and small cakes (banana muffin is a must try)!

What makes this hostel so amazing though, is the incredibly hardworking staff there from 7am-11pm - Ra, Tone and Jenny! Ra is front of house and really puts her heart into making your stay an amazing time. Biscuits and drink on arrival, advice on what to do/see on the island, and just overall bringing a smile each and everyday.

I would recommend this hostel to anyone staying in Koh Lanta!!!

I have not used the hostel for staying there but the lady in the entrance sold us a boat trip for two islands (one of them was Ko Ngai) where we went snorkeling. Very cool trip, included lunch and everything. Unfortunately the weather was so bad that we were not able to go to a second island, therefore I asked for a bit of refund and she was super fine with it and called the company immediately, great service.

Very good hostel! Super good atmosphere and nice breakfast included! The rooms were good and you could do your laundry and get food and bikes. Basically everything in one place
