Shophouse The Social Hostel
|
Shophouse puts up clean, refurbished rooms housed in a beautiful conservation building that is unique to South-East Asia. It comes with useful facilities, a lounge-type cafe and a pretty awesome rooftop terrace that buzzes with travelers every night. It puts you in the heart of the city's energy
The hostel occupies a beautiful four-storey conservation hybrid building that is uniquely found in historical centres in South-East Asia. While it maintains the original structural elements of the establishment, rooms have been refurbished to take on a modern, minimalist loft-style look. Think high-ceilinged, well-ventilated and chic rooms that have an eclectic mix of exposed brick walls and polished decor. We offer 6, 8, 12 and 16 bed mixed dorms as well as 8 and 12 bed female-only dorms which lie on an exclusively ladies-only floor that can only be accessed with a separate keycard. Each floor enjoys 3 fully-functioning toilets and each room comes with a slew of useful amenities such as complimentary WIFI access, personal reading lights, personal electronic sockets, lockers, air-conditioning and electronic keycard access. Shophouse also prides itself on hosting regular social nights on its roof-top terrace and lounge. Think barbecue and movie nights. |
