Rockstel Towers Backpacker Hostel

Ben hier voor 3 nachten gebleven. de voorzieningen zijn niets bijzonders, maar wel helemaal prima. Ik vond vooral de sfeer erg prettig. Rockstel heeft een relaxte sfeer. De vrijwilligers zijn top en vaak wordt per dag een beetje gekeken waar men zin in heeft om te doen. kan zijn aan het einde van de dag naar het strand, gezamenlijk uiteten of dergelijk. Geen enkele druk om aan te sluiten en je kunt op elk moment gezellig aansluiten dus er is geen haast als je eerst nnog andere plannen hebt.

Beautiful hostel, super staff, best vibes

we absolutely loved our stay here we even extended it because of how much we loved the social atmosphere. we also had an amzing family dinner which was delicious. we found The outside areas great for chatting and the kitchen had everything you would need, we will definitely stay again!

Still recovering from the Monday night party lol. Honestly, I’ve never seen a hostel party this packed on a Monday. Met so many travellers, had way too many drinks, and the music was epic. If you stay here, do NOT miss the I Hate Mondays event. 10/10 vibe. Thanks to Adam & Rajiv brothers for everything xoxo

Would give this place 1,000,000 stars if it were possible. Came for 2 nights stayed for 5, honestly didn’t wanna leave. The staff are some of the coolest people and the vibe is elite. Felt like home

The location is absolutely incredible, and you can even rent bikes directly there, which makes everything so easy and enjoyable. The host is unbelievably kind and helpful. I accidentally left something on the bus, and I was sooo grateful that it was sent back to me right away. I had such a lovely experience and would definitely recommend staying here!

Rockstel Towers was the perfect home for a week. As I was in Unawatuna for a while diving I was super happy to find a hostel that was the perfect balance of fun and peace. The staff are all so kind and loving, there is a nice range of evening activities or the week to keep a nice pace to allow everyone to feel like there is an evening they want to do. I even returned for a night in my way back up the coast to say hello and get a good nights rest before flying 😂 Couldn’t recommend more.

it is fine. close to the train and bus, far away from the beach. vibe was alright but there were more volunteers than guests, so even that they were really very friendly it's different to travellers. I would go there again but not for the price (stayed after two nights in another 9,x hostel for 1/3-1/2 less)

Having stayed in over 200 hostels over the years, I can say with rather some confidence that this place is unique. It's situated outside the mayhem of the touristic Unawatuna town center and has a fantastic vibe to it. The volunteers are as diverse as they are eclectic and the place just buzzes with social energy. I'll be back.

Very friendly people :)

En una palabra, Familia Me hicieron sentir como en casa desde el minuto uno, los hermanos Adam, al mando de todo, son los hermanos que sentí que tenia. Comodidad, convivencia y un hostal especial en medio de un sitio especial. Llegué como un mochilero solitario y me voy con el corazon mucho mas lleno. Simplemente gracias. You are soo niceee and i couldnt imaaaaginee

Amazing! Perfect environment. 100% recommendable.

I had a great stay at this hostel. The atmosphere was very welcoming, and all the volunteers were kind, helpful, and friendly. You can really feel the positive energy in the place The owner, Adem, is extremely warm-hearted and professional. He truly cares about his guests and runs the hostel with passion and attention to detail. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well organized, with very good air conditioning. I felt relaxed and at home here. Highly recommended YouTube : go avcı

Wonderful hostel, Nice atmosphere, flexible and always at your disposal. We also had a very fun boat party We had a great time together! Defenitely recommended

Clean, friendly, and a really good vibe. Easy to meet people and chill. Would stay again. Don’t forget to play with lovely dogs doobie and blackie

Had an amazing time in this hostel! :)

Great place in a quiet area, surrounded with a small jungle with lots of animals around (amazing birds sounds!), and yet walkable distance to the town and all the main attractions. Staff is very helpful and social, but you might also easily find a place to just be on your own. Really enjoyed my stay and will come back for sure :)

every pick me driver I had got lost on the way to the hostel as it is very hidden, the toilets were some of the worst I've come across in hostels with the downstairs one actually having no door, the bedroom had a crazy amount of mosquitos and no curtains / mosquito nets we all left with loads of bites, they also ran out of water as no one filled up the filters? the bunk beds were also pretty lethal with no guard, the two very nice volunteers help the rating, ultimately there's better options

Pros: - Volunteers are really friendly - Quite social in the evenings - Aircon is strong Cons: - Ants and Mosquitos everywhere - Nothing in the kitchen works, toaster, cooker, kettle… and even if it did, I don’t think I would want to use it as the utensils and surfaces are dirty - Only 2 shared shower/toilers for the whole hostel - Very unclean - The place is really run down and looks nothing like the pictures online - Location isn’t great, looking at a 20 minute walk to the nearest beach

The hostel is okay. WiFi didn’t work well. Some areas were dirty, but for one night stay for example it’s enough
