My stay at iNest was wonderful. The owner and her son are extremely kind and helpful. Check in was easy. I stayed in a dorm room with a few other guys. I loved that the room had big enough lockers to fit my backpack! They have their own built in lock, too. The room was very clean, and refreshed every day! It’s so nice to come home each evening to a fresh bed and fresh towel. They also clean the bathrooms every day. I will say the men’s bathroom was a little cramped and hot. They have a cafe on the main floor with prices pretty comparable to the tourist prices in the rest of town. Their black coffee orange (iced americano with orange juice instead of water) and avocado toasts are really yummy! They offer a coupon for the gym right down the road (Studio X, which I also recommend and reviewed). They offer taxi and tour services as well. Overall, a really great experience.

My biggest complaint has nothing to do with them, but the location. It’s close to the beach (YAY) and lots of amenities, but it is on a street with many “extra service” massage parlors. As a solo male traveler, it was hard to walk down the street without being harassed verbally + physically. Again, I still LOVE this hostel and would stay here again, but I want to warn other travelers of this! If that’s your thing… enjoy lol Also not many very social guests :/

iNest Poshtel is a good and safe place to stay. Location is very central and safe at night. 7-11 supermarket, pharmacy, ATM, massage salons, cafe and restaurants are around the hostel. Kata beach is 10 minutes of walking from the hostel. I was provided with clean and comfy bed with daily complimentary bottle of water and towels in the shared dorm room. There is a small kitchen with some basic amenities like fridge, microwave, electric kettle and free coffee. Men’s bathroom with toilet and shower is very tiny and only for one person. Free and good wi-fi worked very well everywhere in the building. Daily building and room cleaning services made me like I was at my mother’s home or expensive hotel. There is a café in the hostel and it was great to have some food there when I was lazy or exhausted. Elevator/Lift inside of the hostel was very useful for exhausted travelers with big suitcase. Fei and his team are an asset. They made my stay very comfortable. Fei helped me with arranging trip to Phi Phi islands and local transportation services. Thank you so much.

What could be improved: Kitchen: It would be great to have electric stove and pan/pot, so travelers could cook own food when wanted. I know that South East Asians don’t drink black tea, but it would be great to have black tea in the kitchen for international travelers. I couldn't find black tea even in the supermarket. Bathroom: We need more showers and toilets for men! Unfortunately, there is only one bathroom with separate toilet and shower inside. Sometimes, some travelers just lock entire bathroom and take shower. So, you cannot use toilet for 10-20 minutes and have to wait until bathroom door is unlocked. A small window with fresh air ventilation would be great in the shower as I almost fainted when I closed shower door. There was lack of fresh air to breathe.

Hostel location is easy to find. The staff are excellent. I asked to move from top bunk to bottom bunk as I'm an older lady and there was no issue so accomadating and helpful. The rooms and facilities are amazing very very clean . Each bed has its own lamp,charging point and locker with a key. The housekeeping make your bed fresh everyday and a towel is also provided. AMAZING HOSTEL. Thank you 😊

When I arrived quite late in evening the front door is locked with a phone number to call to be able to check in. Bit of a panic ar first but once I called the number a guy came very quickly from inside and then checked me in and gave me a tour. Door is locked at night for security at night.

Really good location - close to kata beach (20 min walk) with a 7-11 around the corner on both sides, as well as access to the Main Street which is where all the restaurants, massage parlours and shops are. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. The room was comfortable and quiet at night. Room service was done daily without asking, which was nice.

Lots of masseuses heckling and touching you on the streets if you’re walking later in the evening - not very pleasant (however, not the hotels fault!). The bathroom had a slight stench, but I guess that’s with most hotels with multiple drainages in the bathroom.

The location was good, walking distance from the beach and accessible by public transit. Good air conditioning! It was quiet. Close to the Big Buddha hike!

The beds were hard too hard for me, and there weren’t enough showers for the number of people staying. We were not given a key to the room, only the building, which did not feel that safe as a solo woman traveller

- comfy bed - smart tv with netflix - close to restaurants - complimentary drinks and food in the room

- building work going on next door but wasn’t too disturbing - quite a walk to the beach as have to go along the road

Everything - location is great, walkable to the beach, the place is clean and you can even ask for a beach towel to use. They sometimes provide free banana as well. There's a fridge you can use. Staff is very nice and welcoming. They also replace your towel every few days. I really enjoyed my stay!

Only one shower to share, so sometimes you have to wait.

Looking for a chill spot to catch your breath in Phuket? This hostel's your answer. Clean, comfy, and with all the essentials covered – daily cleaning, fresh towels, water bottles, and reliable Wi-Fi. The staff? Super helpful. And with everything you need right around the corner from 7/11, laundry service to cute brunch places & massage salons – it's the perfect place to kick back and avoid that travel burnout. I even extended my stay for good reason.

We could have used some curtains on the bunk beds.

-Clean, with complimentary towel and water provided. -Good air conditioning -Nice staff -Good location

For privacy, curtains around the beds for the dorms would be better. The dorm rooms were not locked so anyone could walk in which as a solo female traveller felt a bit unsafe

Very friendly staff, keeping everything nice and clean! Rooms have AC and bunk beds offer some privacy as they are separated by cardboard walls. Beds have power sockets and a lamp. Toilet and shower was in top condition. They have a small fridge on each level and lockers in each room. Met some nice backpackers there as well. WiFi was reliable.

Currently there's a construction site around which can get bit noisy, but not too bad. Breakfast offer would be nice.
