hipstercity - 9 Circular Rd

Newly opened, still working out the kinks. fairly clean and friendly staff. Flaky wifi. Very loud nightclub on first floor. Somehow there are three showers but only one toilet on the third level, to share between eight people.

(+) Scents so nice. Beds are clean, enough power supply, bathroom and toilets are small but nice. Have complete toiletries, you just need to bring toohbrush. Super friendly staffs. (-) The location is a bit far from bus/mrt stations. Breakfast are so so and always same everyday, I preferred to buy at a convenience store. Silk robes are stinks (not dried well). The main door have no locks, meanwhile the surrounding are crowded esp at night.

very friendly staff and quite fancy for a hostel. high speed Wi-Fi, ample options for teas and coffee and breakfast items in the cafe; a pretty solid experience. if you can afford it, pay for the rooms on the fourth floor, you have a lot more personal space.

Location is really good, but very loud of the disco and karaoke downstairs until 3am. Didn't change your sleep sheet even I requested and stayed for 3 nights. 非常吵，床還會被音樂震動

Location is great, the bed area is so much better than other dormitories and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful! They provide you ear plugs so basically you don’t really hear anything but there’s a club next door and you cannot avoid vibration noise. I was able to fall asleep but if you are a light sleeper you should avoid here

Hipstercity was pretty cool! I took the train from the airport and had no problem finding the hostel. It's a bright yellow building so you can't miss it. The lady at reception was superrrr friendly. I don't remember her name, but she was an angel. Also, the lady that cleaned the rooms everyday was super nice. The rooms were spacious and clean, the breakfast was simple, but it was included. You had bread, coffee, fruit, cereal, biscuits, and tea at your disposal which was nice. The location was PERFECT. Literally less than a 10 minute walk from Clarke Quay where there are tons of bars, restaurants, and nightlife. You're also less than a 15-minute walk from Chinatown. The location is unbeatable for the price you pay. Minor drawbacks: No social activities provided. Some guests weren't very social. Most people were either traveling in couples or kept to themselves, which is fine, I just wish the hostel organized some kind of activities for people looking to socialize. Like a game night or even a simple afternoon coffee meet & greet would be nice. There is a club right below the hostel, so you're going to hear bass thumping until about 3am, HOWEVER the hostel does make this very clear on their website and they give you earplugs. Just putting that out there for light sleepers :) Also, the lofts upstairs were really nice, they just didn't have much ventilation once you climbed to the top bunk. It got really hot up there because you're sleeping between two metal walls, so I woke up sweating every night. I will say that there are a lot of stairs, so be sure to pack light if possible! Other than that, it was GREAT! I actually ended up extending my stay for two nights because I did enjoy Hipster City, I just wanted to give a fair and detailed review of my 5-night experience there. I would 100% stay there again :)

Amazing location, great staff and great facilities. The nightclub downstairs does generate some noise but I actually still found it easy to sleep as the room itself is very quiet. The included breakfast is great as is the common room which is very vibrant and cool.

Love the place. House renovation. Settle for hostel but with sufficient privacy. Chose the double loft, you will have a desk to work and a bed on top to sleep. Privacy curtains are great. There is a safe. Beautiful place. Cleanliness is the highlight. Staffs are great. Only downside is the office chair not suitable to sit for 5 hours straight. Toilet can be limited during peak. But overall I really enjoyed.
