EZ Social Hostel Georgetown, Penang

Its an amazing hostel super social and daily activities. Staff is amazing. Super cool vibes in the hostel. I have no complaints but wanna just add some suggestion. 1. Shower and toilet area needs renovation. Shower cabins are small. 2. The sinks are small, need to be extended. So one can put toiletries comfortably. 3. Bunk beds needs to be stabilised more, so if one person moves, the bed of other person should not move. Overall, The best place to stay. Dont miss the chance to stay at EZ.

I've been to a lot of hostels around Asia and didn't expect a hostel in Malaysia was going to be one of the most social of them all. A very nice hostel, with lovely volunteers and a lot of activities.

Amazing hostel! Really 10/10! They have everything you want from a hostel. Amazing beds with duvets, huge lockers that fit your whole bag, you can even hang your clothes in there😍 A female bathroom with showers was really appreciated! And ofcourse super social! So many activities throughout the whole day, not just in the evening! And not to forget, the breakfast, super good😊 Only downside would be that it’s no aircon in the rooms during the day, which would have been nice.

Nice hostel in a good location. Beds include two pillows & a towel. There’s AC all day in the common areas and free breakfast in the morning. While the heritage building is beautiful, it also means the wood floors are extremely loud. Sounded like people were stomping at all points of the evening so it was difficult to sleep. The top bunks also shake a lot which sucks. While it’s a social hostel, it’s party/drinking oriented and you have to pay for activities such as beer pong and trivia

Can't recommend this hostel enough! I would come back to Penang just to stay here again it really is that great. Dorms are comfy, if you're female I'd highly recommend the female dorms, as they're in nicely located at the end of the hall with their own bathrooms. The staff are all wonderful, I went on one night out which was so much fun, the hostel itself is nice and cosy otherwise and in a great location!

Easily the only real social hostel in Penang - first time I’ve actually liked the reps lol Great beds with two pillows, no bugs in the shower and super easy to meet people

Nice for solo travellers, easy to meet up with people :))

Que buen lugar, muy buena energía, personal que habla español, se agradece, y la chica de recepción, muy receptiva, con buena actitud, y también está aprendiendo español. Haha. 😅

EZ Social Hostel was the best hostel of my trip. Everything is super clean and the staff are amazing. There are lots of ways to meet people, from shared meals to fun events. The beds are extremely comfortable and I slept so well. The female area is separate and feels very safe. Great common spaces like a rooftop and movie area. Social at night but quiet after midnight. Perfect mix of fun and comfort, I’d definitely stay again.

Honestly was a good time until the owner got drunk and threatened to fraud me with the card details i have used to pay from my room. He treid to charge me 1000 RM for nothing in front of me while drinking straight liquor. Honestly thought it was a joke until I checked my travel card the next morning i have reported fraud!

Best hostel we’ve stayed at in Malaysia! All the staff are amazing and so friendly, there are different activities every day, lots of games available and a cinema room. Such a clean hostel, bathrooms are great with hair driers and the beds (especially the pillows!) are super comfy. Only negative is that there are only curtains on the bottom bunks so if you’re on top it is very bright as the lights are automatically turned on in the morning.

We had a great stay at the EZ hostel! Such friendly staff, and a sociable vibe! We didn’t want to leave!

Best hostel in Malaysia for a reason!!! The rooms are so nice with really comfy beds and super clean bathrooms with lots of stalls. The staff are all so awesome and fun and we met lots of cool people! Always activities to do and a pub crawl every night!! By far the best hostel I stayed in my entire trip!

Great hostel in Georgetown. Location is great, dorms were tidy and beds comfy. The movie room with AC is the best thing ever to escape the heat.

Heel sociaal hostel. Als je niet van een party houd kan je beter wat anders zoeken want de muziek dreunt door tot je kamer. De female dorm zit onder de bar. Maar dat gaat vaak door tot ongeveer 12. Verder zijn de bedden netjes. Personeel is aardig en veel activiteiten

Lovely hostel and the staff are so nice and welcoming :) would definitely recommend to anyone coming to Georgetown.

Always suspicious if somewhere has consistently amazing reviews but what can I say…. This place is the best. Good vibe, good people, all of the volunteers are amazing AND the thickest pillows known to man. 10/10

Had a great time here. It was clean, the bed is very comfy, you get 2 pillows, a towel, free waterstation, free very nice breakfast, the ladies dorms and bathroom are in a separate area of the hostel, there are really good hairdyers and mirros and even a ironing board. All staff and volunteers were very friendly and there were a lot of social events. Even there is some party in the evening, i had no problems to sleep.

My favourite hostel in 8 weeks of travelling! I have recommended it to everyone. I have great memories from here

Too good to be true! Had a really hard time to leave the place because everyone was just too welcoming, too friendly, too much of all the good things honestly.
