I will admit that when we saw the outside of Rucksack Inn on Hong Kong street, we were a little skeptical about what the place would really be like. However we though to ourselves "Well the location is great at least, and we won't even need to spend much time here so it won't matter much if it's not great."... More

Dont let looks decieve you. Not even the strairs. Once you enter inside Rucksack Inn 1, you will feel welcome in an instant. It's like an extensiion of your own home. I feel bad I learbed about this place just now. I wasnt aware that there are better places than the ones I (we) used to spend overnight transits in... More

The dorm rooms are clean and everyone is very respectul. The common area had a great backpackers atmosphere with modern comfy furniture and several computers with Internet that you can use for free. The staff is helpful and there is also free toast,tea and coffee all day. The location was also close to transit, shopping, restaurants, the waterfront and Chinatown. More

The location was great. The room was very clean. And they kept the AC running at night so it was cool and dry in the room. The staff was very friendly and helpful. And, yeah, a Singapore Sling at the Long Bar would set you back more than a night's stay at the Rucksack Inn. The only only inconvenience was... More

Great location, very near to MRT (Clarke Quay), near to Central (a mall, mostly for eat and dine), near to bus stop with a lot of buses to explore the city and surroundings; to Orchard, Bugis, Funan, City Hall,... you name it! :) I was staying in Rucksack Inn 2. Very happy staying there although I must have walked quite... More

Great location, MRT line a few minutes away. Very clean, friendly staff. We stayed in the 28 bed dorm which I was slightly concerned about but had a great nights sleep with an enforced lights out/quiet policy at 10.30pm aiding this. Dorm is also split in half with lockers lining the centre of the room so the dorm doesn't feel... More

This hostel lives up to the cleanliness of this nation. So expect a spotless clean hostel unlike the those rubbish [...] holes in Malaysia and Thailand. I have stayed in several hotels in the city and this hostel is a great choice if you wanna cut your budget. I got a room with two bunk beds, i suggest you take... More

There are 2 rucksack inns on the same street, make sure you tell the driver which one. 2 flights of stairs and no lift No shoes can be worn inside the hostel Stayed in the double room (Orchid room) proves to be noisy First...

it turns our they have three motels. this is truly the bunk bed and breakfast. because the only thing that will make you want to stay in your room is the free video and wifi in your room. though the room has no windows at all, this turns out to be quite good for someone who wants to stay asleep...

The location was perfect (Clarke Quay). It's just a 5 min walk from the MRT station at Central. Chinatown, Merlion Park, Clarke Quay, Boat Quay and Raffles Place are all just a few minutes walk from the hostel. I stayed at the mixed dorm. The bed was really comfy. I love the blankets. :) They provide everyone with lockers and... More
