Aekkeko hostel, hotel in Phuket Town

Set 300 metres from Thai Hua Museum, Aekkeko hostel offers 2-star accommodation in Phuket Town and features a garden, a shared lounge and a terrace.

I think I need to re-evaluate all my other ratings on Booking because I finally felt what an accomodation worthy of 10 is like. From the moment I arrived and had to wait at the table in the lobby for a bit for my bed to be ready, I felt more like home than home itself. The silence, the spinning fans, the plants growing directly in the house which made it feel like you live both inside and outside, the colorful bathrooms, the suspended bed you can relax on at the end of a day, the relaxation area where you can start your day with yoga, the laundry service on point, the helpful staff that made you feel you were living with your aunt and cousins and always showing a sincere smile. At this point I almost want to go again to Phuket for this accomodation only :)

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    We are on a world tour and this was by far the cleanest and most organized hostel we stayed in. Our room, toilet, bathroom, and corridors were extremely clean. We started the day with a wonderful smell of cleanliness every day. The staff was very helpful, always smiling and warm-hearted. We loved this place. We even extended it for 1 more day and didn't want to leave. Definitely choose it. Rabbitel Phuket is a clean, safe and quiet place.

    The location was perfect .. a short walk to the main cool Old Town streets. The staff were helpful and courteous. The facilities were great including a pool, beer fridge, book swap, kitchen. I had a room to myself which was well equipped although the stairs up to the loft bed were very step .. needed to be very careful going up and down. A really good hostel catering for both backpacker and older traveller which I am one. Felt safe and comfortable there.

    Great location as it was really close to the shops and cafes. Hostel itself was really nice and felt super safe. Clean and comfy beds and nice shower and toilet area which never felt busy. A cafe fronts the hostel and it’s really nice, the staff were great and have pictures giving recommendations for Phuket. One staff member was super helpful, writing an allergy card in Thai that we’ve used across Thailand.

    One of the best hostels I've stayed in. Extremely clean, quiet, and in the middle of old Phuket town. The staffs were very polite and helpful. Though the stay is the cheapest I've had in Thailand, it came with breakfast and they even gave a souvenir. Would highly recommend.

    Overall it’s a cheap hotel, staff are really nice and helpful. Room itself was very dated, wasn’t overly clean, both the shower and beds were borderline usable. Safe in room was handy, laundry service was good bonus for backpackers and great mopeds to rent from the reception. Location again was okay, but using a moped really helped. Overall, wasn’t the worst, wasn’t the best, but for the price it’s tough to complain to much.
