Visitor Reviews
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ One of the best hostels I’ve stayed at – modern, social, and chill Pak-Up Hostel is honestly such a vibe. I’m 18 and this place felt perfect for young travelers who want a mix of social energy and comfort. From the moment I arrived, everything felt super modern, clean, and well-organized. You can tell they really care about the atmosphere here. The pool area is a huge highlight. It’s not just a pool – it’s the heart of the hostel. During the day it’s chill, perfect for cooling off, relaxing, or meeting people, and in the evening it turns into a super social space where it’s easy to make friends without it feeling forced or awkward. Great music, good energy, and just the right balance between fun and relaxed. The staff are amazing – genuinely friendly, helpful, and always smiling. They’re not just doing their job, they actually care that you’re having a good time. They helped with recommendations, transport, and always made the place feel welcoming. The hostel itself is very modern and stylish, especially for a hostel. Clean dorms, comfortable beds, good air conditioning, and lockers that actually make sense. Bathrooms were clean and well-maintained, even with lots of people staying there. Everything feels designed for travelers who value comfort but still want that backpacker vibe. Social-wise, this place is perfect if you’re traveling solo. It’s incredibly easy to meet people, especially other young travelers. You never feel lonely here, but it’s also not too crazy if you just want to relax. Overall, Pak-Up Hostel is the perfect mix of party, chill, and comfort. If you’re young, traveling solo, and want a modern hostel with a great pool and amazing people, this is the place. Would 100% stay here again and recommend it to anyone coming to Krabi. ✨🌴💙
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Pak Up Hostel – The Best Stay in Krabi! I had an amazing experience at Pak Up Hostel. It truly deserves five stars! The hostel offers so many thoughtful perks: a free breakfast buffet every morning, complimentary drinking water, and even one free cocktail daily which made evenings extra fun. They also provide free towels, napkins, and a shop on-site, which is super convenient for travelers. The dorms are excellent—clean, spacious, and with perfectly chilled cooling that made resting so comfortable. The atmosphere is very peaceful, happy, and welcoming, making it easy to relax and connect with other travelers. Honestly, this hostel gave me one of my best experiences in Krabi. If you’re looking for comfort, great vibes, and amazing value, Pak Up Hostel is the place to be!
Great hostel. Rooms are well organised with spacious lockers and curtains with comfortable bedding. Good amenities, pool, gym, clothes drying, bar, breakfast etc. perfect location, next to several markets and sight seeing opportunities. Would highly recommend a stay.
