The Brownstone Hostel & Space

I stayed here for a few nights in Ipoh as a break between Penang and Cameron Highlands. The hostel is super cozy. What really stood out were the plants—there are so many around the floors, which gives the whole place a fresh, chill, and relaxing atmosphere. It’s a great spot to just recharge and refresh. I also loved the common area—plenty of cushions and sofas to lounge on. Perfect for reading, planning the next part of the trip, or just doing nothing for a bit.

Fantastic hostel staff very kind and helpful Lovely communal area Very clean Free breakfast make your own toast etc Tea /coffee Good location easy walk to old town First time staying in a hostel In our 60’s 70’s So great for all ages Would recommend

If I tell you this hostel was a treat oh my god, staff is incredible so sweet and helpful, hostel has a nice atmosphere and interior, it’s very pink but very cosy at the same time, bed are comfortable and shower oh my lord showers are dreamy - this is definitely the best hostel we stayed in while backpacking Malaysia

Very nice facilities but felt more like a hotel. Location isn’t the best and no social atmosphere. If you’re not looking to socialise much and want nice facilities then I would recommend however wouldn’t recommend if you’re after a social atmosphere.

Loved my stay here. The downstairs communal spaces were clean and inviting with a good choice of board games. Good location with cheap taxis into main tourist areas and clean but small rooms

Great hostel overall, the beds are comfy and the hostel is very clean in general. There’s a decent atmosphere with quite a few backpackers. Only critique would be the location, as the hostel isn’t in the nicest area.

Such a cute hostel with a lot of places to chill and the beds and rooms were super clean!

really cozy, clean, pinterest looking place, i felt really nice there

I had a private room which was a nice size with my own bathroom. Facilities were modern. Very basic breakfast- cereal, toast and coffee/tea. Not very social, but plenty of places to socialize and/or do some work.

Was a great place to stay! Very friendly and tidy, probably the best facility’s I’ve had whilst travelling

pretty chill

One of the most aesthetically pleasing and clean hostels I’ve stayed in! It’s literally an instagram reel 😍✨ I loved how well it was taken care of. The atmosphere was very quiet and not very social but such a great hostel to stay in and unwind, especially after partying in KL.

We absolutely loved this hostel! Great location, friendly staff, and clean kitchen, bathroom and rooms! The downstairs common area is so well decorated and has such a nice vibe. Staying here for one night was the perfect amount of time for us! Would recommend!

Very nice common area, free breakfast, filtered water. I liked my bed, the room and the bathrooms were fine! The location is a bit off the city centre and I didn't love the area. Staff were ok, not particularly nice. Didn't feel very social. The door to my room was never locked. For the safety lockers you need to bring your own lock. Overall it was good, but I only stayed one night

Nice place, quiet but that’s to be expected in Ipoh I think. The beds where nice (capsules)

Loved this hostel! The reception/social area was really nice and modern and the staff were lovely! The room was small but it’s all we needed and it was clean.

Very beautiful place! Everything was clean and the pods are super comfortable

A really nice hostel with clean neat rooms. Nice bathrooms with good showers. Staff were super helpful! social space is nice and having breakfast is lovely! Only downside is it's a bit out of the way of most things. My room had a bit of a damp smell because the bathroom had no window which wasn't ideal.

Super schönes, modernes und gut ausgestattetes Hostel. Alles ist super sauber und man fühlt sich super wohl. Das Hostel ist auch eher ruhiger und in die Stadt muss man etwa 10 minuten laufen.

Very Nice and clean Hostel with an unspectacular breakfast included. The showers and sleep boxes are very nice. The old town is a 20 min walk but there are nice local shops and restaurant close by. I would come here again.
