Visayas HostelsHostel

First time staying here at Olive Hostel in Roxas City and I can honestly say it was a great experience. My son has stayed here twice before and now I understand why he likes it so much.

This place is amazing! If you are looking for a budget-friendly hotel this is the one. With free breakfast 🍳 and nicer, friendly staffs. My husband and I stayed for 1 night here, this place is clean.

This will def be our go-to stay if we ever need to stay the night in Tacloban! we’re traveling by car so we really need a safe and secure parking lot and this hostel does its job!

The staff’s are hospitable most specially the front office associate Ms. Micha.

We had an incredible stay at Amigos Hostel in Dauin! The entire place is exceptionally clean and well-maintained, which made for a very comfortable experience.

Welcoming, clean and comfortable.
Bong and the staff are very friendly, responsive and helpful. Thank you for the delicious papaya, tips for Apo Island and great service.

I can’t imagine finding a better place to stay in Moalboal. The staff were all incredible! So friendly and helpful.

Best hostel in Moalboal no question.
Great location, quiet but close to the beach. Amazing staff who helped me when I was sick. Super comfortable dorm, modern, clean and spacious.

I loved it and I am so sad that we had to leave 😢 unfortunately we couldn’t extend because they were booked out.
Bernie and his wife are amazing, warm and lovely people.

We had a wonderful stay! We stayed for over a week and Bernie was so incredibly kind. We enjoyed the calm environment and being able to use the kitchen to make breakfast.

Great accommodation. Lovely and helpful team. Just a few minutes walk to the beach. Clean rooms, comfortable beds in the dorm. Curtains for privacy. Fair prices.

Had a great stay at Ohlala hostel! It has a homey vibe to it with seating to hang out with other travelers both inside and in front of the hostel. The staff was very friendly and helpful!

Stunning space, hammocks and swings, like a mini wellness resort with cute doggos. Really lovely staff, great location next to the beach, free breakie which is a bonus!

We really had such a delightful stay!

We stayed in the double private room, service was great they helped us with laundry, arranging activities and any kind of question. The room was very clean and cozy and the Wi-Fi connection was great.

Amazing stay.
Wood cabin felt just like being in the island.
Very clean, amazing staff, everyone is so nice and helpful.
AC works really good and also the internet was very good.

Hostel was pretty much worth the price. And the guided city tour by Ms. Takako Ohata was just amazing and kind.

Staff is very friendly and helpful if you have questions or are looking for recommendations about the surrounding area.
They also have tours you can book and other hostel events!

The place is run by a friendly family, the rooms are spacious and clean, as are the bathrooms.

Stayed here for 2 nights in the male dorm. The dorm has 4 bunkbeds made of steel frames. The frames are pretty sturdy, but you can feel the bunkmates if they're moving around heavily.

I wish there was soap provided. All in all it was pretty good for the price, they have hot shower and the bedding is pretty decent. The room is clean and spacious.

Had an overnight stay here with my friends. We booked 2 rooms and we've had a great stay. The staffs are accommodating plus the rooms and bathrooms are clean. The place is also peaceful and safe.

I had a pleasant stay here. Everything is clean, the staff are friendly and there is water provided. 10/10.

The hotel may be small, but it’s well-planned and comfortable. What makes it truly special is Manong—the humble and kind old man who looks after tenants with genuine hospitality.

My new go-to hostel in Cebu! It’s cheap but the facilities and service are not cheap.
1. They’ll welcome you with a drink. Very nice since I was exhausted.
2. The room is not crowded, only 4 per room.

Fantastic experience. They arranged for somebody to be at the reception in the middle of night (3am) because my flight got in so late. Great service, nice rooms, clean bathroom.

I had a good stay at Nacho Hostel—the place was clean, the staff were friendly and accommodating, and it’s located near Robinson’s Supermarket and other food establishments.

I spent just 2 nights in Cebu as a part of my trip in the Philippines and certainly my stay at Nacho Hostel has been an absolutely pleasure and really confortable to rest and keep traveling.

This is a great place to stay if you'll be spending most of your time roaming about. It's located in a not-so busy street with a lot of good places to eat nearby.

Great value for money! The room was clean, there were plenty of pillows, and the CR was very clean, which I really appreciated. I had a comfortable stay.

The hostel was clean, efficient, and comfortable. It was actually cleaner than many European hostels and Philippine hotels I have visited.

Stayed one night at Cebu Backpackers Hostel and had a great overall experience. The hostel is small and cozy.

As a lot of people mentioned, this place is perfect for whale shark watching but the real icing on the cake are the people who run it. Mama Zeny and her son and nephews are the sweetest people,

I absolutely loved this hostel!

The Hostel is affordable and good for stay providing all the basic amenities for a good and peaceful stay required.

I recently stayed at Shejoje Poshtel Hostel in Cebu City and found it to be a well-positioned, solid choice for travellers on a budget. Key observations:
✅ What stood out.

Great value for money! Of the seven hotels I stayed in across Cebu and Dumaguete, this one offered the best overall value.

A very convenient place to stay in the city. We were not informed, though, that we should have requested for airport transfer a day before our flight.

I really enjoyed my stay here! The hostel is clean, comfortable, and in a convenient location.

Loved my stay at Hangover Hostel! Super friendly staff, clean rooms, and a great atmosphere for meeting other travelers. The location was perfect, and everything felt safe and welcoming.

Very nice family run hotel.
Definitely will be back again.

Super friendly & helpful staff. Just next to the ocean. Great views.

The vibe of this place is so chill! Great accommodations if you want to start your day with a stretch since they have a yoga studio in the hostel.

Love Eia by Dawata as a space to explore the city. More than just a place to stay, it really celebrates the feeling of community. Plus the common areas are just too pretty.

The beautiful ladies running it are very kind and helpful, rooms are acceptable with very good AC. Location right next to a shopping centre and far enough from the main town so not too busy.

I have no clue where the bad reviews are coming from. We have been traveling through South East Asia for 5 months now and this is the best hospitality we have had. The woman is super friendly.

Beach front access. Rooms are lovely, direct access works great. Rooms are dark so you can sleep after the long journey even if it light outside.
Staff are lovely, very attentive and helpful.

We — family of 4 (parents and kids 11 & 13) — stayed at Aivy Maes for almost 2 weeks and enjoyed it to the last minute!

Location is great. Rooms are basic but everything you need is there. Breakfast was really great!

Very clean and comfortable. Apparently there are two types of rooms shared bathroom and bathroom included. For an overnight stay is a great value!
