Kinta District Hostellit

"The BEST hostel I’ve been in my 7 countries Asian trip. The location, the services, the cleaniliness, the attention, all were great. The hotel is on a renovated old building with exquisite details and curated decoration elements. Everything is clean. The rooms are comfortable and the beds are big enough to have your small backpack in it. There’s a curtain for privacy and it wasn’t crowded. The other guest were very mindful of others. This hotel is relatively new, they opened in Nov 2025 so, it’s still getting known in the travel world. You can use the kitchen that has all the implements to cook, store items in the fridge and prepare a breakfast with ingredients that the hotel provides… free, great breakfast! If you need a towel they give you one at no charge… for now. The location is great. You can walk to the old town of the city and Concubine ln. It’s a really nice walk. That part of the city saw a past splendor and the buildings show it. There are several restaurants around, even some fast food. Two things I would review if I was the owner… I waited for an hr before getting my room while other people got settled immediately. My dorm only had 2 ppl in it, the room was ready when I got there. If you have a bed available, just give away even when there’s no the time. It means a lot to the guest that in general has been traveling long hrs, especially if it’s a small place with not many people. The other thing is to teach us (ignorant westerners), how to use the electric shower heater. I couldn’t make it work because I couldn’t find the on/off button. A small sign could have solved my and others’ frustrations. The owners are doing an excellent job at the hotel. I’m planning to come back so I’ll be a guest again at the Brownstone."

"Friendly environment, owner took good care of all guests, remembered each one well. Location is within walking distance of eating places. Whole hostel is maintained well by staff, bed is extremely clean. Good place to chill as well after a long walk"

"Hostel located in the heart of tourist spots. Famous eateries like Tuck Kee, Lou Wong are all walking distance. Superb location for an affordable price! Not to mention Suky was very helpful and attentive, she had reached out to me first on check-in details before I could ask her anything. The only down side of the hostel is probably the street noise. It doesn't really bother me anyway however those who need perfect silence to sleep will probably need ear plugs. Overall, I'm happy with the stay and will definitely come back again if I happen to visit Ipoh!"

"The host was very friendly and helpful, and the check-in and check-out process was smooth. Overall, it felt safe and welcoming. Just a small note for future guests: this homestay has a “quiet hour” policy, which means you should avoid making noise — no music, no loud conversations, and try to keep your voice low in the room. During our stay, my friends and I received a noise complaint, even though we were not being loud. It may have come from another traveler nearby. So it’s important to be extra careful during quiet hours to avoid misunderstandings. Overall, I would recommend this homestay to anyone looking for a comfortable place to stay, as long as you are mindful of the quiet hour rules"

"Hotellin tilat ja palvelu ovat hyvät. Huonetila on subjectiivinen. 1. Vahinkoa ei korjata ennen avaamista seuraavalle asiakaskäyttöön. Ei vaikuta huoneen käyttö, mutta on huono esitys. 2. Käytävä rauta rata alempi vuode ei piilotettu, jossa ruuvi altistuminen voisi aiheuttaa ylävuode käyttäjä helposti saada leikata, joka tapahtuu tyttäreni. 3. Kun kunnostaminen työt ovat pois, ei ole välitöntä puhdistus yhteisen alueen aiheuttaa koko pölyä erityisesti lattia. Luulen, että puhdistus tuli mop lattia myöhemmin. 4. Ääni naapurilta yökerhon toivottavasti ne voivat olla pois ennen 2 aam."
