I was only there for one night so my opinion is maybe not the most reliable. I wasn’t a fan of the location because its pretty far to the town but you can totally rent a scooter and then its alright, the beds were kinda hot to sleep in and for me the vibes werent the greatest but also not like bad. What I have to say the rooftop bar/restaurant is GREAT, like great food and nice view!!

One of my favourite hostels in nearly 5 months of south east Asia! The staff were wonderful, the events held were super fun and the overall atmosphere was one that really felt like a community I didn’t want to part from! The rooms themselves were clean with large beds and large storage area under the bed too so everything felt secure. The rooftop bar/restaursnt was als very nice and boring scooters from the hostel was cheap and easy. A must stay when in Kampot!

The best hostel atmosphere we’ve ever experinaced. Great staff, great volunteers, activities you actually want to get involved with & great food. Little far away from Kampot centre but with a bike it’s no problem, tuktuks outside all day for taxis. We loved it there so much we extended and are coming back after the islands. You’ll send most your time round the pool bar or on the roof socialising til closing time!

lovely place to stay. the vibe is really nice. the capsule dorms are really cool but just about everyone knows the code to the door. multiple staff yelling matches were heard (dunno what about) and on another occasion the owner (i assume) came and had a very loud & unprofessional word with some staff while me and a few others sat nearby. otherwise a good stay & good food.

The staff was nice, but spent one day of my Kampot trip in the hospital after I drank water from the water dispenser, which smelled bad, had particles in it and wasn’t clear (I didn’t notice at first because I didn’t check, since it came from a dispenser so I didn’t expect anything bad). They served bread to a friend of mine with mold on it, the bathroom had no light and for one day also no new toilet paper. The floor in the locker was also dirty. Only the bed was really clean and comfy.

Nice hostel, friendly staff, nice social activities. Did get food poisoning (bread) there but the staff was very nice and helpful. Ate there again which was fine. Stayed in a privateroom which has everything you need. Bit outside of the city centre, but in a nice and quite area.

By far my favourite hostel in Cambodia maybe even in south east Asia. Such a chill and social vibe especially on the day that have live music on. The staff are lovely and really get you up and dancing !! Plus, the pool is a bonus when you just want to chill

Good hostel with a super nice staff ! The location is not ideal though if you want to discover the city center and don’t bike.

Stay at Onederz instead. A few of us ended up switching over after we extended our stay in Kampot. The facilities weren’t the cleanest, especially the en-suite bathrooms in the non-container dorms. And since the location in a 25 min walk out of town, you either need to tuktuk or rent a scooter to get back and forth. Many people end up staying on the property for every meal instead of venturing out. The staff were nice but we couldn’t understand why the property rating is so high

Staff are so friendly and very helpful. The rooms are clean and very comfortable. It is a little out of town but I walked it everyday and it was fine.

Such an epic hostel — met some amazing people there and really felt a sense of community. Staff are so cool and welcoming as well. Perfect balance of social without explicitly being a party hostel, you can if you want to but don’t have to! Would love to stay here again if back in Kampot

Très chouette hostel avec une bonne ambiance et personnel gentil, location de vélo/scooter possible. Un peu reculé donc pas de restau/cafe aux alentours + on a eu des douches avec une odeur noséabonde…

Really nice hostel to stay in Kampot, not directly in the city but if you’re motorised it’s very close ! Lots of events organised, which help for meeting new people. Cleanliness of the dorm and the bathroom could be improved but other than that we loved staying there !!

bisschen außerhalb gelegen, dafür aber tolle Abendprogramme (Open Mic, Quiz, ...), super Happy Hour, Sauberkeit könnte besser sein und die Dorms kann man nicht absperren. ansonsten Preis-Leistung sehr gut

I had a great time at Karma Traders, the rooms were very clean and spacious with a nice en suite bathroom, the common areas were great for hanging out with other travellers, the food and drink was fairly priced and good quality, and the event nights were lots of fun. The staff were also very friendly and social with everyone, I highly recommend staying here when you visit Kampot!
