Central Backpackers Hostel - Phong Nha

Only booked this hostel to pass through but so glad I accidentally booked multiple nights and stayed to enjoy the awesome cave tour! The vibe is also so great at the hostel during the day chilling by the pool with the amazing mountain views, would 100% recommend!

Friendly staff and a very social atmosphere. We had a great stay here for a few days with comfy beds, good food/drinks, and the pool was great.

The hostel and the facilities are nice. Very cool to have the pool to cool down and breakfast very generous. Staff is also very helpful and kind. The only thing it’s a party hostel with many young people who are not really warm and friendly, so the atmosphere feels a bit cold and really western culture if you re really looking for something “ peaceful” and local. A part from that, thats not really something staff can do about it.

Great hostel, breakfast was amazing and staff sorted any issues we had

A fairly lively hostel, but they do a good job of shutting things down in the evening. The buffet breakfast is excellent, and on Sundays they have a free bbq in the evening which was way better than we expected. Lots of social space, but a criticism is that they allow smoking in all of the outside spaces, which means you are constantly breathing in second-hand smoke ew - for such a big hostel they could have an area where smoking is prohibited. The rooms are spacious, balcony space!

Great stay

Had 2 nights here, staff were amazing. Very big and spacious hostel and on a whole the facilities were nice and clean. Would recommend!

Really nice hostel with a beautiful pool area, events each evening, and in a good location. Staff at reception are so lovely and remember everyone by name. Can rent bikes for a really good price.

It’s « Central » backpackers for a reason. Every bus and excursion start from there. They have a really good free breakfast, amazing location with the garden pool, good restaurant (not the best western food but ok). The beds are really comfy! I don’t personally like bathrooms in the room because it creates rush hour but they have some downstairs (4 flights of stairs so a bit far for a shower). Also my charging port wasn’t working properly. But apart from that i would recommend ++

Very clean, with good atmosphere, ideal for anyone looking to socialize. May be a bit noisy until 10-11pm max. Nice common rooms and pool, good free breakfast, good food&drinks from their restaurant, although a bit pricy compared to local prices. I ended up extending my stay by a lot of days because I got sick (from another place) and the staff werevery helpful and always checking up on me, I really appreciated the ladies in the front desk! Good location as well, definitely recommend!

The night staff on the reception extremely helpful, especially when looking for transfers

Super hostel! Eigenaar nam ruim de tijd om Ho Chi Minh door te nemen en daarnaast ook nog te kijken hoe ik mijn route door Vietnam kon doen! Erg aardig!! Niet een mega sociaal hostel, maar zeker wel een aanrader!

Great beds and bathrooms!

Overall great hostel, nothing bad to say.

I loved this place!!!

It is a nice hostel. For me it was a bit to busy at the general areas. But the staff is the sweetest and helped me really well when i had some problems. And overall there is nice traveling vibe

Good Hostel the Breakfast is amazing, I liked this hostel in Phong Nha and I would recommend it

Great place to stay

Oprecht beste hostel ooit! Goed eten en fijn zwembad

This place was one of the best hostels in Vietnam for me. I absolutely LOVED it here! The view alone was enough to make me want to stay there for years! The beds were comfy and the bathrooms were clean too. Free beer hour is amazing too! I really recommend doing the tours they offer here, great value for money and you are able to make friends staying at the hostel. Phong Nha was one of my favourite parts in Vietnam, couldn’t recommend it more!
