Happiness Hostel El Nido features a shared lounge, terrace, a restaurant and bar in El Nido. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, luggage storage space and free WiFi.

The area is popular for cycling, and car hire is available at the hostel. This is a really good hostel, the location is perfect, is one block from the beach and all the tours start on that point. The staff is so friendly and they help you with everything, they even organized my transfer to my next hostel in puerto princesa for a really good price. There is free coffee and hot sweet bread every morning, free bananas all day. The view from the balcony is amazing, beds are really comfortable and you can ask for extra blankets at night. Really good experience, as a solo traveler you can feel that the girls are always taking care of you and be sure that you feel comfortable everyday saying hello with a big smile ❤️

Mojo Hostel has a garden, terrace, a restaurant and bar in Puerto Princesa City. Among the facilities at this property are a tour desk and luggage storage space, along with free WiFi throughout the property. Guests can enjoy garden views. The design of this place is amazing, modern and cool I really liked it. Someone helped me through messages in this site with all my queries, a special thanks for this person because I messaged and received response every time. The lady at the frontdesk is also very nice. Another gem of this place is Mario, he is there all the time to give rides in his tricycle, but he is a very special man, he calls himself as Super Mario, so funny, so servicial, so nice! He has the best attitude, a lovely man. He makes this place even more special!!! Definitely I highly recommend this place.

Located in Puerto Princesa City, within 7.5 km of Honda Bay and 1.2 km of City Coliseum, Duck & Drift - a Sleeper Hostel - Just 1,7km from Airport provides accommodation with a terrace and free WiFi as well as free private parking for guests who drive. The property is around 3.2 km from Palawan Museum, 3.5 km from Skylight Convention Center and 3.6 km from Immaculate Conception Cathedral. The property is non-smoking and is situated 3.2 km from Mendoza Park. I had such a peaceful and comfortable stay at this hostel. It’s simple but has everything you need — and it’s literally walking distance from the airport, which was perfect for my late-night flight. The place is quiet and cozy, with a comfy bed, two pillows, free tea and coffee, and even a hammock upstairs where you can relax. There’s a small kitchen, free towel provided, and the overall atmosphere is really calm and restful. What made it extra special was the kind lady who runs the place. She genuinely cared and even helped me sort out my transportation for a late-night departure. I also really appreciated that she let me stay and rest in my bed after check-out time for free — such a thoughtful gesture. I had the best night’s sleep here. 10 hours of uninterrupted sleep for the first time since I started this trip. If you need a place to recover and recharge before your next destination, this is the perfect spot. Thank you again for everything!

Situated within 4.3 km of Maquinit Hot Spring and less than 1 km of Coron Public Market, Kaiz Hostel features rooms with air conditioning and a shared bathroom in Coron. Attractively situated in the Coron Town Proper district, this hostel is located 1.7 km from Mount Tapyas. The property is 400 metres from the city centre and 2.6 km from Dicanituan Beach. Everything was great. Despite being 12 people in the room, it was very quiet and we had enough space for everything. There are big lockers under the bed, free coffee and water, 2 showers+2 toilets which was enough. The family was very helpful, friendly and empathetic. They kept my bag in their house for the whole day while I was gone for a day trip, and helped with booking the tour. I'd highly recommend if you want to sleep during the night.
