Yellow Star Hostel features a garden, shared lounge, a restaurant and bar in Kampot. Featuring a sun terrace, this property is set near attractions such as Kampot Train Station. This pet-friendly hostel also has free WiFi.

This really was a superb hostel suitable for people of all ages. The photos on Booking.com don't do it justice. The common area is like a beautiful green oasis. The room was plain but very spacious with an excellent bathroom where the hot shower actually WAS hot. Everything was spotlessly clean. The restaurant had excellent food. WiFi was excellent and worked everywhere. Location a bit out of the way unless you arrive by train, but it was worth trotting out here. Minivans will pick you up here if your onward travel is by bus.

We loved our stay at Eden, the staff were extremely accommodating and friendly and cooked some of the best food we’ve had on our trip! They supplied free water, kayaks and bicycles which was a lovely touch. Eden is located right next to the Green Cathedral which we explored using the kayaks, and moped rental right next door was very handy!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Excellent way to experience Kampot without being right in the centre. Not too much of a long walk to the centre but you can rent a bike for very cheap from the guesthouse and its safe and easy to drive in the area.

    This place is great, especially if you are on a budget. Excellent views of the mountains and river and very peaceful away from the traffic. Its a budget backpackers place and has a great little atmosphere. Good food, cheap beer and just a short ride from town. What more could you want?
