Everything was clean, the bathrooms and showers were often cleaned by the staff. Showers were amazing with good water pressure, and they had soap dispensers to use too. Location was really good in the middle of Sairee Beach, there were restaurants nearby and diving centers and laundry service nearby too.

I really enjoyed staying in Silver Na’s. The hostel was very social without being a party hostel, while I stayed there everyone was more focused on diving or beach days. The hostel offers a free shuttle service to a different beach every day which is a great way to see Koh Tao if you aren’t going to rent a scooter. The location is great, an easy 3 minute walk to Sairee Beach and the town area with restaurants and 7 eleven. Would highly recommend if you’re looking for a more chill vibe while also having the social element.

We stayed here for 4 nights total, and the facilities were all great! Very clean, great air con, and a nice area downstairs to relax. We also did our PADI course with Buddha dive view so it worked really well with transport and all the other details being organised for us. Would highly recommend staying here as the staff and location are excellent!

All hostels in Koh Tao

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.

Beds were comfy, the common area/restaurant is a great opportunity to meet people. The staff is international and very social and accommodating. The owner hosts weekly events like movie nights or bbq, even though it’s a social hostel it wasn’t loud at night. When i first arrived i was handed a towel and allowed to shower, even though I arrived way before my check-in. Daily cleaning of the dorms. Perfect hostel for backpackers or anyone who wants to meet new people!

The owners as so lovely and so helpful. Beds were comfortable and clean and private. Facilities were great. Free tea and coffee and a fridge. Lovely little balcony area and in a great location, close to everything. Everything about this hostel is perfect. Safe and secure too with key fobs to enter the room.
