Rabbitel phuket (แรบบิทเทล ภูเก็ต) — Hotel in Ratsada

Even if I havent used buses, location of the hostel just next to the terminal could be convenient for some travelers.I liked how spacious the capsules were, there's room for bed, a personal locker, and also space even for your bigger bag/s.Also, i liked that the room came with a practically private bathroom (6 guests sharing it). It can be quite noisy though, when showers or lavatories are in use, as there is no door to the bathroom area (maybe something to add?).In the kitchen area, there was a possibility to make yourself coffee or tea. You could also refill your water bottle given at checkin, but the water cooler was behind the front desk counter, making it somewhat inconvenient as you always needed staff's assistance.I disliked staff cleaning the room already after 9 o'clock. I understand some guests leave earlier, enabling earlier cleaning. But for the sake of other paying guests sleeping in the room (in the room where maybe roommates arrived late at night and were extremely noisy, making it problematic to sleep during the night), staff shouldnt change the beds so much before the check-out time, casually talking on the phone too, and creating additional noise pollution.There is a reason why checkout is at 12 and checkin around 14. This is the prime period when staff should disturb the room.While hostel in general seems to ve very clean, i think bathrooms could have a more pleasant, refreshing smell (visually the toilet was clean, but the scent could have been better). Also, it would be great to have a trash bin in general area, not just inside the toilet, where it is mostly used for disposing used toilet paper.Note to future bookers: there is a 300 baht key deposit, which i forgot to collect afterwards (busy member of the staff just took the key back, without sorting it out). Luckily, i stayed a bit longer in the lobby, and they came looking for me to give me...

I recently stayed at Rabbitel Hostel in Phuket during New Year's, and it was a delightful experience. I stayed in a 4-bunk bed shared room, which was comfortable, they have lockers near the bed and. Curtains for privacy. Despite being near Bus Terminal 1, I was pleasantly surprised by how quiet it was there was no noise or disturbance from outside or from other guests inside the hostel.

The common bathroom was clean, with towels and toiletries provided, ensuring a pleasant stay. The hostel features a common kitchen with complimentary tea and coffee, perfect for budget travelers. Although they advertised free breakfast, I didn't see any during my three-day stay.

The staff at Rabbitel were exceptionally friendly and spoke English very well, making communication easy and enjoyable. Their helpfulness added to the welcoming atmosphere of the hostel.

Its location is unbeatable—just steps from the bus terminal, making it convenient for early morning departures or late arrivals. Local transport options are easily accessible from this bus stop, allowing for easy exploration of the area.

Advance booking is essential, especially during peak times like New Year's, as the hostel tends to fill up quickly. Overall, Rabbitel is an excellent choice for budget-conscious travelers seeking comfort and...

Stopped here for two nights in their four bed dorm which I ended up having it all to myself :)

Pros... *Great location as directly next to bus Terminal 1. Even with being so close you can't hear what's happening outside. *Each bed space is huge like having your own mini bedroom. Beds are comfy enough and there's plenty of showers and toilets to go around. Three of each on each floor. *Aircon was great and quiet enough not to disturb my sleep. *Lockers are huge and no need to have your own padlock as they have a built in lock. *Get your own towel to use while here. *Shampoo and shower gel is provided in each shower. *Water pressure and temperature works absolutely fine.

Now the cons.... *I don't know what is offered in the free breakfast as nothing was out the multiple times I went down and sadly no one at reception to ask. *They would really benifit with some drying racks on the balconies as they are big spaces just not used wisely. I had to improvise in drying mine. *They seem to have a problem with ants, don't know if it's the heat though. *Could do with some shelves or more hooks in each bedpod. *The duvet is a large towel

Overall I enjoyed my stay and would definitely think of revisiting next time...
