The staff were friendly,helpful and their when ever I needed help. The hostel was just the right distance away from town but close enough to the beach. I definitely needed the mosy nets they had over each bed.

I can only recommend this hostel if you are looking for a cozy, clean place with good vibes. The hostel has direct access to the beach (practically private) and is convenient to bus stops. On the side you will still find supermarkets and places for primary things. Super clean and well maintained hostel, very relaxing atmosphere! The guy who work there and the owners are wonderful, they make you feel at home. I extended my stay already after the first day I stayed. I hope to return before my departure! :)

I had a wonderful stay at Snooze Station. The location next to bus station is great. Its just a short walk to fort Galle. The rooms are clean and specious. The staff was most welcoming friendly and helpful. The owner even explained me everything about the story and long history about this hostel/building. Highly recomment.

Absolutely brilliant. Where to start? As soon as we arrived we felt the kindness. This place has been very special. B.P, the guy who works there, has made our stay superb. He has been a professional, kind, funny and very caring person. The place is great. Spacious, calm and safe. You have a filter water fountain, a dog that will give you love and a beautiful common area. The house is absolutely beautiful and we could even meet the owner who was very polite. The breakfast is amazing. We also liked the mosquito net in the bed. B.P did the laundry for us and it was perfect and cheap. If you are in Galle, this palace is the 100% worth it. I want to say thank you to B.P one more time for your kindness :) D&J

All hostels in Hikkaduwa

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.
