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.

    Great location in the centre of the city. Quite a few facilities to eat nearby, I would recomment Quvshin. The room was spacious and clean, water, a teapot and teabags provided. No breakfast provided but I did not expect it for such a price anyway. Tolga bey was very helpful.

    Very large, modern hostel in a very good location in Shymkent. All the rooms are clean and have good aircon, the front desk is very helpful, not really anything to complain about. If you're in Shymkent for a night or two, it's definitely a good reliable option.

    This hostel deserves more rating, yes maybe there is not atmosphere but that is because Shymkent is not touristic or attracting backpackers as Almaty. However the location and the facilities are amazing, and the staff helpful and nice. The hostel is huge with plenty space to seat or chill.

    This hostel is the best I have ever seen and I have done a lot of them. Everything was perfect almost the standard of a hotel (bathroom, towels, etc) Sparkling clean, huge common space to hangout, speaking English staff really helpful about how to commute , what to see and do in the city. There is no kitchen but the food is so cheap around who would cook ? There are huge table to eat.

    The hostel was quite big and spacious and had an interesting decoration. It was inside a mall, so it was pretty safe and right next to a busy street with some bars and cafés. The staff was friendly despite the fact that they didn't speak English at all.
