I have already stayed at Travellers Inn Hostel some years ago before they moved to a bigger building with more space. I loved it the first time and now I loved it again. First of all the area is really nice. Restaurants, shopping malls, Little India, food hawkers, 2 MRT Stations - all just around the corner. The pretty new... More

The hostel is about a 10 min. walk from the MRT. Depending on what you are planning to do or where you are coming from, there are two convenient lines which you can get off/on. At night the streets are dark, so it is probably best to explore the different routes to the MRT stations during the day. The actual... More

When we stepped in the door we were impressed by this place. It is a clean, modern hostel with staff who go out of their way to be helpful. However, our experience was not a good one. Unfortunately there is a night club right next door and we didn't sleep well at all. Until 3am there was constant noise coming... More

Dear Guest, we are glad that you are impressed with our staff services and Hostel setup which were unfortunately not enough to score a better overall rating from you. For the record, we are situated along a main road - Jalan Besar and there is NO night club beside the Hostel. More

I spent 5 great days in the Hostel. It's a small and cosy place right next to a 24h food court. When I was there in November, most of the people staying there were Asians (a nice difference to all the europeans in other hostels). The Hostel is near little India. It's a 5min way to the MRT at Lavender... More

Having stayed for 4 days in one of the 4 start hotels in the city, it was good to have one night in a normal place that... More

At first I didn't like staying in a hostel when I saw where my friend stayed before in Bugis but when I came in at Travellers Inn, made the decision right. Jenny and Daniel made us feel this is our 2nd home. Very nice couple with very warm welcome and smiley face! They may have some rules but it's for... More

I am working for an airline and stay in 5* hotels for work, but on my trips around teh world I choose hostels. This one I picked out after visiting a couple of places around Lavender Road in Singapore all of which were "backpacker-like" but I was nowhere greeted as friendly as in the Travellers' Inn.

The Travellers Inn was a bit of a shock initially as we were greeted with a long list of rules. However the staff helped us to plan our time in Singapore and we found it to be a comfortable hostel. I wouldn't recommend it for couples but single travellers or backpackers will find it to be pretty reasonably priced for... More
