It’s flexible
In some of the larger hostels in Kota Bharu you can book one night at very short notice, or decide to extend via the hostel’s reception desk if you’ve fallen in love with Kota Bharu. It’s not uncommon for some backpackers to live in hostels for months.
You’ll make friends
Solo travellers opt for cheap hostels in Kota Bharu so they can make friends to party or explore with. Spend an hour or two in a dorm room, hostel bar, or common area. You’ll get the kind of tips and advice you’d never find in a private apartment or hotel. There could also even be pub crawls, communal dinners and special organised events!
You’ll immerse yourself in Kota Bharu

Hostels give you the chance to exchange tips and advice about Kota Bharu with other travellers. Some hostels in Kota Bharu even offer free guide books and walking tours, and the staff are more forthright with local tips, too.
You can kick back
Hostels are relaxed places, and often feel much more comfortable than hotels. You can kick back on the sofa all day with new friends and cook and eat your own meals communally. A true home away from home!
