Riverside Hoi An, Dolphins Hostel

Convenient location! And super nice about storing bags. The pool was a huge perk.

The rooms were very hot during the day with so many people. A few things were broken throughout the facilities.

The staff here are amazing. Really nice to stay in a hostel that is Vietnamese owned. There are lots of showers and lots of toilets so I never had to wait once for the bathroom which was absolutely fantastic. Bar and pool table downstairs is a lot of fun and makes it very easy to meet people. Location is amazing and having a pool is so good.

The mattress is not very comfy. Felt like I was sleeping on cardboard.

Shower a bit dirty..

The location was on point, 3 min walk to the hustle and bustle of Old Town and night life. Daily activities ran by hostel but no pressure to join. I came as a solo female traveller (42) and there was plenty of space for quiet down time as well as chatting, drinking and socialising. Good size pool and sun loungers, hostel provides pool towels (bonus!) Breakfast option is reasonable and was good to fill up if I was out on a trip. This place is real value for money, it’s clean, tidy, well maintained and staff are helpful and polite. I’d be happy to book again on my next trip through Hoi as it ticked everything I wanted and needed in a hostel stay. It’s in a great location for attractions in the area too, I don’t have a bad word to write about my stay here.
