Kabayan Hostel Reviews

Kabayan Hostel in Hong Kong is a budget-friendly accommodation option that caters primarily to Filipino travelers, though it's open to guests from all backgrounds. Located in the heart of Kowloon, it offers a central base from which to explore the city's vibrant streets and landmarks. The hostel's rooms are simple and clean, with basic amenities that provide a comfortable stay without frills. While the space can be somewhat compact, it generally offers good value for money. Guests often appreciate the friendly and helpful staff, who contribute to a welcoming atmosphere. The hostel’s connection to Filipino culture is a unique feature, providing a familiar environment for Filipino visitors and a chance for others to experience a bit of Filipino hospitality. However, some travelers have noted that the hostel's location, while central, can be noisy, and the building itself is somewhat dated. Additionally, the small size of the rooms and facilities may not suit those looking for more luxurious or spacious accommodations. Overall, Kabayan Hostel is a solid choice for budget-conscious travelers seeking a centrally located, no-frills stay with a touch of Filipino charm.

AVOID, it is TERRIBLE

A long-term customer at this establishment. Cannot ask for more at this price range in HK. Friends with the owner. Am very happy

staff should improve on customer service but the hostel is very accessible. thank you so much trip.com

Not very clean. Old aircon was noisy, had to turn it off and opened the window for air ventilation. Bathroom was flooded with drain water from the other in the next room.

All services are good. Will come back again.

All is good. Friendly staff, good service.

Decent for this money in HK!

Two gates, relatively clean, Wi-Fi available, high cost performance. The owner needs to communicate in English. Clean and safe, WiFi available, good room considering the price. The hosts speak English.

My flight was delayed that night, but I had to check in at the hotel at 11pm at the latest. I didn't clear the airport until 10:30 in the evening. As soon as I left customs, I kept calling the hotel. No one answered the phone, so I didn't dare go to the hotel directly, so I called customer service and asked for a refund. But the hotel refused to agree to a refund. It's terrible!

I couldn't find a place to stay, so I had to find another hotel.

The hotel is on the 11th to 13th floors of Chungking Tower. The room is small and the space is cramped. At the same time, there is a mixed crowd inside Chungking Mansions, with a large immigrant Asian population, so safety risks cannot be ignored. This hotel is run by immigrant Asians, who have the mentality and behavior to deceive customers, and language communication is difficult. It is highly recommended not to choose this unless you have special teams experience.
