Phi Phi hostel dorm beds cost about €5 to €16 a night on Hostelworld, which lists 38 hostels on the island, but price is the smaller choice. The bigger one is noise: some hostels are built around a beach bar and a nightly bar crawl, and others sit a few minutes away with air conditioning and quiet corridors. This guide compares 12 backpacker hostels by dorm price, guest score and atmosphere so you can pick the right bed.
Dorm prices and scores come from Hostelworld, which shows euro prices with no stay dates, and from the Booking.com hostel list. Descriptions draw on Hostelgeeks, Hostelz and The Broke Backpacker. Hostelworld and Booking.com often score the same hostel very differently, so each score below is named by site. Check current rates for your dates before you book.

Phi Phi Hostel Picks at a Glance: 12 Best by Traveler

Phi Phi Hostel Prices: What a Dorm Bed Costs
On Hostelworld the cheapest dorm ‘from' prices are Friendz Hostel and Rehab Hostel at €5.37, Bodega at €5.53 and Dormsin at €5.91, while the dearest dorms, such as Beds Friends at €16.24 and Kewalin at €16.11, cost three times more. Hostelworld shows the lowest rate on any date, so the price you pay in peak season will be higher.
Season matters. Hostelz puts the cheapest month at September, at about $9, and the dearest at February, at about $18, though it does not say whether this means dorm or private rooms. In other words, the same bed can cost around twice as much in the dry season.
| Hostel | Dorm from (Hostelworld) | Private room from | Booking.com score |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rehab Hostel | €5.37 | No privates listed | 6.5 from 123 |
| Dormsin Hostel | €5.91 | €9.39 | Not on the list |
| Blanco Central Hostel | €6.17 | €10.07 | 6.7 from 199 |
| Brightstar Hostel | €6.17 | No privates listed | 9.0 from 240 |
| Hangover Chill & Hill | €8.05 | €30.87 | 9.3 from 727 |
| By the Beach Hostel | €9.39 | No privates listed | Not on the list |
| Blue Flow Hostel | €9.39 | No privates listed | 9.3 from 329 |
| Sweed Dee Hostel | €10.74 | No privates listed | 9.1 from 600 |
| The View Hostel | €12.08 | No privates listed | 9.3 from 1,128 |
| Sweed Dee Love Hostel | €12.62 | No privates listed | 9.4 from 310 |
Booking.com shows prices differently, for one night, two adults and one room. For example it listed The One Hostel Phi Phi Island at $44 and Brightstar at $27, so do not compare those figures with a Hostelworld dorm rate. Scores also differ by site: Rehab Hostel is 10 on Hostelworld but 6.5 on Booking.com, so compare scores within one platform.
Best Quiet Phi Phi Hostels for Sleep and Comfort
Ton Sai is loud at night, so a calm Phi Phi hostel is a real selling point. The Broke Backpacker calls Ton Sai Village one of the busiest areas in the dry season and recommends earplugs for snoring dorm-mates. Hostelgeeks picks these hostels for a better night. Our guide to Phi Phi nightlife shows where the noise comes from.
- Voyagers Hostel has one 10-bed mixed dorm, fully air-conditioned, with a light and charging point on each bed and a privacy curtain on the bottom bunk. Hostelgeeks puts it in a quieter area near the beach and ranks it first for solo travelers, including women. Hostelworld places it near the tsunami shelter and notes that night-bar noise is limited.
- Dormsin Hostel offers 18 pod beds in one room, each with a privacy curtain, reading light, plug point and shelf, plus large lockers and a book swap. It scores 9.3 from 1,144 reviews on Hostelworld.
- Sweed Dee Hostel has air-conditioned dorms, safety lockers, hot showers and a towel at check-in. Hostelgeeks puts it a few minutes' walk from the Loh Dalum party scene and about 10 minutes from the main pier.
- Sweed Dee Love Hostel is described by Hostelz as clean and social, with air conditioning, storage, and a small bar and lounge. Booking.com scores it 9.4 from 310 reviews and lists it as adults-only.
- The View Hostel has bay views and a rooftop terrace, about 300 m from Loh Dalum Beach, and organizes island-hopping and snorkeling. Booking.com scores it 9.3 from 1,128 reviews.
- Blue Flow Hostel is about 100 m from the main pier, with a lounge, kitchen, rooftop terrace and laundry, per Hostelz.
Hangover Chill & Hill is the odd one out. It is about 800 m from Laem Hin Beach and Booking.com lists a year-round outdoor pool, garden and terrace. It scores 9.5 from 408 reviews on Hostelworld and 9.3 from 727 on Booking.com, with dorms from €8.05.

Best Party Phi Phi Hostel Picks: Beach Bars and Pool Days
Some travelers come to Phi Phi for the nights. These Phi Phi hostels put the party under the roof, so expect noise rather than avoid it. A party-hostel guide describes the main ones below, and our Phi Phi nightlife guide covers the bars, fire shows and boat party.
- Blanco Beach Bar Hostel scores 8.7 from 4,971 reviews on Hostelworld and has dorms from €6.44. The party guide describes a nightclub with drink deals, fire shows, beer pong and a party boat, with a bar crawl leaving at 21:30. Hostelgeeks warns of loud music until about 1 am. Booking.com scores it just 6.9 from 395, so read recent reviews.
- Ibiza House Phi Phi lists pool parties on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday on Hostelworld, where it scores 6.4 from 1,484 reviews with dorms from €14.76. The party guide gives the day party as 14:00 to 20:00, with 200 baht entry that includes one drink, and calls the pool small.
- Blanco Central Hostel is about 50 m from the beach, scores 8.0 from 1,703 reviews, and lists 26 events on Hostelworld. Dorms start at €6.17.
- Slumber Party Phi Phi scores 8.1 from 300 reviews and lists 17 events, with dorms from €6.95.
If you want to join the party but still sleep, book a quiet hostel and walk to the bars. Hostelgeeks places Sweed Dee Hostel a few minutes from the Loh Dalum scene, and The Broke Backpacker notes that Dee Dee Sea Front on Loh Dalum Beach is far enough from the noise to sleep.
Cheapest Phi Phi Hostels: Beds from €5
The lowest Phi Phi hostel prices on Hostelworld are below, with guest scores. Cheap does not always mean basic: Brightstar and Rehab both score at the top of the list, though Hostelworld and Booking.com disagree about Rehab.
| Hostel | Dorm from | Score (reviews) | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Friendz Hostel | €5.37 | 7.1 from 12 | Central, few reviews |
| Rehab Hostel | €5.37 | 10 from 640 | Booking.com score is 6.5 |
| Bodega Koh Phi Phi Hostel | €5.53 | 8.0 from 138 | Low price, 138 reviews |
| Dormsin Hostel | €5.91 | 9.3 from 1,144 | Pod beds and big lockers |
| Brightstar Hostel | €6.17 | 9.8 from 113 | Three-minute walk to the beach |
| Blanco Central Hostel | €6.17 | 8.0 from 1,703 | Social hostel with events |
Hostelz lists even lower ‘from' prices, such as $2.88 at Phi Phi Paradise Hostel, but gives no dates, ratings or currency details, so treat those as a lead and not a price. For peak-season beds book early, and see our guide to the best time to visit Phi Phi.
Phi Phi Hostel Alternatives: Budget Bungalow Options
A cheap Phi Phi bungalow suits couples or small groups who want privacy, and costs more than a Phi Phi hostel dorm bed but less than a resort room. Expedia and Booking.com showed these budget options in late October 2026, and the full list is in our guide to Phi Phi hotels.
- PP Charlie Beach Resort was the cheapest on Expedia at $33 for two adults on 30 to 31 October, scored 6.6 from 517 reviews.
- Paradise Pearl Bungalows at Long Beach offers bungalows with private bathrooms. Expedia showed $73 and a score of 8.4 from 318 reviews, and The Broke Backpacker mentions nearby restaurants, bars and shops.
- Phi Phi Relax Beach Resort scores 8.7 from 2,867 reviews on Booking.com, from about $46, but is reached only by boat.
- Hostel private rooms are cheaper still. Hostelworld shows privates from €9.39 at Dormsin and €10.07 at Blanco Central, and €11.41 at Ivory Phi Phi Island Hostel, where every room is private.
For quiet bungalows on the calmer coast see our guide to Long Beach and the where to stay in Phi Phi area comparison.
How to Book a Phi Phi Hostel: Tips and Arrival
Pick the noise level first
Decide whether you want a party Phi Phi hostel or a quiet one, then read the three most recent reviews for noise. Scores alone do not show it.
Compare both platforms
Hostelworld and Booking.com score hostels very differently. Check the same dates on both and trust the one with more recent reviews.
Check the walk from the pier
Phi Phi Don has no cars or motorcycles, so you walk. Hostelworld lists most hostels within 1 km of the centre. Our guides to Phuket to Phi Phi, Krabi to Phi Phi and the Phi Phi ferry explain the boats.
Book early for peak months
December to February is the busiest stretch, and Hostelz shows February as the dearest month. Choose a free-cancellation rate if you can.
Pack for a Phi Phi hostel dorm
The Broke Backpacker suggests earplugs, a microfibre towel and a hanging laundry bag.
Plan your trip around the weather too. Our guide to the best time to visit Phi Phi explains the seasons, and our Koh Phi Phi guide covers beaches, viewpoints and day trips.
